Got my eyes on the prize, no surprise, yeah
Expressing determination and focus on achieving a goal, expecting success.
Got my eyes on the prize, no surprise, yeah
-Got my eyes on the prize, no surprise, yeah
-Got my eyes on the prize, no surprise, yeah
-Had too many enemies
Reflecting on facing numerous adversaries and experiencing loss.
I filled too many cemeteries
-Where do I draw the line
Pondering the need to set boundaries or make decisions.
Where do I lead my mind
Contemplating the direction of one's thoughts or decisions.
Sometimes
Acknowledging uncertainty or inner conflict at times.
I thought I held the answers to these questions
Believing to have solutions to life's questions, but challenges persist.
But they'll still arises
-Bleeding across the lines
Facing difficulties and reaching for solutions that may be elusive.
Reaching until they find
-New heights
Striving for new achievements or personal growth.

Acknowledging burdens that hinder progress and expressing a desire to overcome them.
Hold me down, tonight I will deflate
-With the rising sun I'll float away like helium
Visualizing a release from burdens and floating away, like helium rising with the sun.
Heal, heal, heal me sun
