The Sea |
| Oh, I’ll survive the Sea |
| Keep my head above the water |
| Win that fight inside of me |
| I’ll put my faith into the tide say |
| Carry me O carry me |
| Safely to the other side so I can speak |
| To tell ‘em I survived the Sea |
| Thank you for coming |
| I’m glad you’re all here |
| I’ve got a story to share with you |
| Can you lend me your ears |
| It’s been about 4 years since he got the all clear |
| They say that episode’s over still ain’t concluded all fears |
| It was in '08 that’s really when he got ill |
| The Dr said it was mainly stress, he lost some friends he lost Del |
| They’re giving him meds, he’s on pills, said take a rest go on chill |
| That was until 2010 that’s really when it got real |
| Something popped up on his neck, go on feel, its hard as rock |
| It’s unusual and usually he would have brushed it off and thought nothing of it |
| But right after Derek and Puff, it’s best to check its nothing |
| If there’s nothing there there’s nothing lost right? |
| Had a little op a week later, its nothing rushed its just a biopsy |
| Probably won’t see nothing much |
| Then a message from his doc had him back in to discuss what was happening |
| But what he had to tell him had him crushed |
| And now he’s on the ward politicking, with a wise older fella |
| Told him boy the clock is ticking |
| We don’t know what’s gonna happen but right now |
| We’re winning ‘cause we’re here |
| Start swimming |
| He wanted to keep it a secret |
| ‘Cause people assume the worst ‘till they research |
| He can’t believe he’s going through this |
| Before he’s even thirty |
| The nurses where optimistic |
| Said, I’m glad you caught it early |
| You could beat this, its time for treatment |
| Begin the journey now swim |
| Oh, I’ll survive the Sea |
| Keep my head above the water |
| Win that fight inside of me |
| I’ll put my faith into the tide say |
| Carry me O carry me |
| Safely to the other side so I can speak |
| To tell ‘em I survived the Sea |
| He feels his loved ones praying for his survival, now |
| Reading from the Quran, the Torah or the Bible |
| This how he’s gonna be feeling after every single cycle? |
| Head spinning and now he had to cut his hair because it might fall out |
| His girl said he looked well |
| The world just couldn’t tell |
| Outside its looking like heaven |
| Inside its feeling like hell |
| Just trying to find him a boat |
| Stay a float and set sail |
| And he got his strength from the Ocean, that’s how he took it so well |
| And he had to open the net, to capture hope and success |
| But most who wrote about it weren’t those who where coping the best |
| See people get diagnosed; |
| asked a couple of questions and those who overcome it |
| Just want to let go and forget (We get it) |
| He remembers sitting on the ward politicking, with a wise older fella |
| Told him boy the clock is ticking |
| We don’t know what’s gonna happen but right now |
| We’re winning ‘cause we’re here |
| Keep swimming |
| He’s back up in the machine like a submarine |
| Trying to make it to the surface |
| We he got those results man, he was clutching on ‘em nervous |
| Didn’t even wanna read ‘em he just wanted to listen |
| They said, well done, you’re now in remission, God bless ‘em now, Swim |
| Oh, I’ll survive the Sea |
| Keep my head above the water |
| Win that fight inside of me |
| I’ll put my faith into the tide say |
| Carry me O carry me |
| Safely to the other side so I can speak |
| To tell ‘em I survived the Sea |
| Oh, I’ll survive the Sea |
| Keep my head above the water |
| Win that fight inside of me |
| I’ll put my faith into the tide say |
| Carry me O carry me |
| Safely to the other side so I can speak |
| To tell ‘em I survived the Sea |
