Tap Water
Tales of Resilience: Twelve Dollars & Tap Water
Lyrics
I got twelve dollars to my name and
I have only twelve dollars to my name
Tap water is all I drink to numb this pain
I cope with my pain by drinking tap water
I know there's different seasons and different times
Acknowledging the existence of different seasons and times
But Johnny as my witness I walk the line so
Expressing commitment, with Johnny as a witness, to walk a certain path
Tell them go ahead, tell them go ahead
Encouraging others to speak freely
Tell them all the things that make them grin
Encouraging others to share joyful experiences
Make it easy, easy
Advocating for simplicity and ease
Everybody gets to win
Promoting a scenario where everyone can succeed
I don't think we can name this ghost or
Suggesting difficulty in identifying or understanding a mysterious entity
Brag about which of us have seen him most
Discouraging boasting about encounters with the mysterious entity
We go too far beyond where our feet can touch
Exploring unknown territories beyond conventional limits
But wiser men have feard just to speak of such so
Recognizing the fear associated with discussing such matters
Now we sink or swim, now we sink or swim
Facing a crucial decision or challenge, akin to sinking or swimming
Now we sink or swim until we're safe
Emphasizing the urgency of the decision until safety is achieved
Make it easy, easy
Advocating for simplicity and ease in overcoming challenges
For everyone to find their place
Promoting an inclusive environment for everyone to find their place
Make it easy, easy
Reiteration of the call for ease and simplicity
Make it easy, easy
-Make it easy, easy
-I got twelve dollars to my name and
Repeating the financial constraint and coping mechanism
Tap water is all I drink to numb this pain
Reiterating the use of tap water to cope with pain
I know there's different seasons and different times
Reiterating awareness of different seasons and times
But Johnny as my witness I walk the line
Reaffirming the commitment with Johnny as a witness
