Dedicated to my sister Cassie, who completely embodies the meaning of this song. When you find yourself falling on hard times, it's easy to listen to the destructive voices in your head. Once you decide to tell those voices to piss off, you begin making your comeback.
lyrics
Funny that you thought you won, over.
Surrender, contender, you put up a hell of a fight.
I’ve lost control of myself, fighting myself, and I thought I was done.
Would you believe the dream I had?
I gave up on it, just to satisfy, nana-nullify.
I want to fly, and lift high up to the sky
Don’t deny, what’s inside, and to know I’ll be alright.
Standing tall, the worst is in the back.
Stronger now, the best has yet to come.
Here I am, a great mighty hurricane blowing.
Proud to say, my comeback has arrived!
Ruthless demons in my head, be gone.
Divorcing, removing, I don’t need you in my life.
You run around and play games, with my psyche,
and that shit ends right now.
Cuz I got a plan to take it back, I mean all of it,
From my misery, to my ecstasy.
I want to fly, and lift high up to the sky
Don’t deny, what’s inside, and to know I’ll be alright.
Standing tall, the worst is in the back.
Stronger now, the best has yet to come.
Here I am, a great mighty hurricane blowing.
Proud to say, my comeback has arrived!
