Now I Feel Alive

Now I Feel Alive
[Unreleased]
Gotta’ move forward, if you know what I mean
Keep on chasin’ what was started as my childhood dream
Though it seems like yesterday I thought it's gonna’ be gone
Cause’ it's been so long that I've been tryin' to finish a song
I've always been a writer and a lover of music
So I gathered equipment but didn't know how to use it
And although I could record only my anger was fed
Cause’ I couldn't get it on the tape like it was in my head
And I tried so hard, but every time I tried to make it
Something came up, tried to break it,
Or someone would try to take it
Been fighting so long, for something that I could not see
Not with my eyes, but in my dreams, and still a possibility, yeah
I always said that I'd have a CD
With a little four track mixer, very few thought I'd be
A successful artist, come on now you can't disagree
You thought I'd still be working in the same factory
But I'm not, no, and I'll never look back

Well maybe just a couple time to help someone that
Was a friend to me then, so I'll remember you now
As I sing out this song to tell everyone how, I came to
Feel alive, now I feel alive
I felt dead for so long, I felt dead for so long
Now I feel alive, now I feel alive
I felt dead for so long, it turns out you were wrong
Now I wanna’ give credit if you've shown me some love
So thanks to those who pushed me, when I needed a shove
And of course the one who gave me everything that I got
I'm talking bout God, if you think it's you, well it's not
I've hardly had-any-help from any woman or man
Except my family, my girl and a couple of friends
Who told me keep on goin’, when I wanted to quit
Especially my girl who says this one a hit
And there’s a few more people who came for the ride
Who would listen to my demos and help me decide
If I should go this way, and what style I should sing
And to those who told me man just keep doing your thing
And I'll be going to the top, and I'll never come down
Cause I've now spent too many years with my feet on the ground
And to all my old friends who have helped me along
For you I saved a rhyme and now you’re a part of this song
And I tried so hard, but every time I tried to make it
Something came up, tried to break it,
or someone would try to take it
Been fighting so long, for something that I could not see
Not with my eyes, but in my dreams, and still a possibility
Now I feel alive, now I feel alive
I felt dead for so long, I felt dead for so long
Now I feel alive, now I feel alive
I felt dead for so long, it turns outs you were wrong
Now I feel alive, now I feel alive
I felt dead for so long, I felt dead for so long
Yea I feel alive, yea I feel alive
I felt dead for so long, it turns outs you were wrong
