Unveiling Life's Diamonds: Triumph Over Demons in Tommy Mantra's Powerful Journey
Lyrics
I'm lookin' to the sky for some inspiration
Seeking inspiration by looking to the sky.
Lemme grab my pen and paper now, hol' up
Preparing to write down thoughts and emotions.
Cause pain has risen and peer pressure's got me saying different things
Feeling influenced by pain and peer pressure to say things to please others.
Just to make em happier, just so they think I'm grown up
Compromising authenticity to appear more mature or pleasing to others.
I'm sorry ma but I can't live through your eyes
Expressing independence from parental expectations.
These are dreams and aspirations of a whole different kind
Pursuing unique dreams and aspirations.
And to ease your mind, would mean I'd pay the price for wasted time
Recognizing that pursuing personal dreams may come at the cost of others' expectations.
That'd be a wasted life and I just can't afford to waste mine, to chase my
Refusing to waste time and life on pursuits that don't align with personal goals.
Dreams is not a bad decision when I went from sippin' liquor to sick in bed, and feelin' Stressed
Reflecting on the journey from unhealthy habits to stress and the decision to chase dreams.
Became addicted to quick fixings so goals grew fictitious
Acknowledging the pitfalls of quick fixes and setting unrealistic goals.
And cigarettes clouded visions, that were once picturesque
Describing how cigarettes clouded once clear visions.
I was afraid to go the distance
Admitting fear of taking on challenges or going the distance.
But to find precious diamonds in wreckage, well that takes years of persistence to perfect
Highlighting the effort and persistence needed to find value in difficult situations.
Time is of the essence so let's put my fears to the test
Emphasizing the importance of time and facing fears to achieve success.
And face what's next so I can lay my fuckin' demons to rest (Success)
Committing to overcoming personal demons for success.
Sometimes I wonder if you weren't by my side
Reflecting on the impact of someone's presence on personal survival.
Would I have survived
Questioning survival without someone's support.
Sometimes I wonder if you weren't by my side
Repeating the contemplation of survival without support.
If you weren't by my side would I have survived
Reiterating the question of survival without support.
(And if you're fighting off your demons know you're not alone)
Encouraging those facing challenges to know they are not alone.
Sometimes I wonder if you weren't by my side
Continuing the reflection on survival with or without support.
If you weren't by my side would I have survived
Repeating the contemplation of survival without support.
(And if you're fighting off your demons know you're not alone)
Encouraging those facing challenges to know they are not alone.
This music's been liftin' me up to the top now
Acknowledging the uplifting power of music in personal growth.
I'm livin' a dream, used to live under a rock
Transitioning from a challenging past to living a dream.
Drinkin' and smokin' but that's when I noticed that potion's the reason I'm missin' my Shot
Realizing the negative impact of substance abuse on missing opportunities.
Knew it was a problem, just look what it cost ya, a hell of a lot
Recognizing the cost of destructive behavior.
Too close to the coffin, I've fallen unconscious, from pills that I popped
Describing a close encounter with death due to substance abuse.
Angels are callin' but I am not ready, I'll swim with the Loch Ness if he tries to tempt me
Feeling unprepared for potential challenges and temptations.
My enemies better be ready for anything, send out your best team of heavy artillery
Being ready to face challenges with determination and strength.
Tempted by pleasures cause devils still testing my limits and second-hand smoke is still Killing me
Acknowledging the ongoing struggle with temptations and their consequences.
Blessed with a vision through mental ability, flush out my demons and find what lies Underneath
Expressing a desire to overcome inner demons and discover inner truths.
Sometimes I wonder if you weren't by my side
Repeating the reflection on survival with or without support.
Would I have survived
Questioning survival without someone's support.
Sometimes I wonder if you weren't by my side
Repeating the contemplation of survival without support.
