No Rock Bottoms
Rising Above: Unveiling Life's Boundaries in Grace Askew's 'No Rock Bottoms'
Lyrics
No more walls around here,
No more barriers in this place,
Only boundaries
Only limits,
Waited year after year
Waited patiently year after year
For anything to save me
Hoping for something to rescue me
Back and forth, and round I'd go
Back and forth, in a cycle I'd go
Through the motions we all know
Repeating familiar actions we all experience
It swallowed me up
Life engulfed me
It swallowed me up
Life overwhelmed me
You see, I got a history
I have a past
cin't nothin' there to read about me
But there's nothing noteworthy about me in it
My mind's made up
I've made decisions
My mind's made up
I've firmly decided
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No absolute low points in this place
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No rock bottoms in sight
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No ultimate lows here
What's invisible
Things that are unseen
Still takes up space
Still occupy a presence
But in this world,
But in this reality,
I've finally found my place
I've finally discovered my purpose
Hard-headed as they come
Stubborn and unyielding
cin't got no time for anyone
No time for anyone
But myself
Only concerned about myself
But myself
-Oh my dear, fare thee well,
Oh my dear, bid me farewell,
Born again, in the well
Reborn, emerged from a difficult situation
Opened eyes
Eyes wide open now
Opened eyes
-NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No absolute low points in this place
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No rock bottoms in sight
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No ultimate lows here
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No absolute low points in this place
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No rock bottoms in sight
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No ultimate lows here
NO ROCK BOTTOMS HERE
No absolute low points in this place
