Fight Or Flight
Fight or flight happened again today
Don't know why or what to say
Anger deep inside my mind
Not really seeing, feeling blind
So I went for a wander
To clear my head
Far over yonder
Here's what the voices said
Your better than this you are great
Get on the phone ring your mate
This is just one of them blips
Walk on son get outta them dips
The other voice telling me to quit
Making me feel like s**t
Laughing loudly deep inside
This is when I sat and cried
It's not very easy knowing your wrong
But I had to remain strong
Anger, sadness is what I felt
Sat on the grass wanting to melt
I've survived worse this I know
Recovery may be really slow
I'm ready to fight this head on
Positive thoughts and staying strong
Dont just ask "how am I?"
Otherwise I will make you cry
The reason is I'm not good
Miss those lost from brotherhood
Listen to me and what I say
Empaphize don't run away
I need your help this is for sure
Then together we'll find the cure
