about

Obstacles are your opportunities.

lyrics

Some people build walls / and others run and hide
To understand the things before them / they have to first recognize the problem
Brick by brick we block ourselves with fear, depression and doubt
we gotta look above and beyond the wall we built around ourselves
Keep in mind this is going to help you grow
Without anyone you can say you did this on your own
Don't rely on the drugs or the drink to escape
Keep your chin up and just admit your mistakes
It's easy to wall yourself in / when shit aint going the way you want
Just stop feeling sorry for yourself and move on
Don't focus on problems or whats wrong
Cause it's conquering our fears which makes us strong

The difficulties that I face / are just the pedestals in my life
that I will recognize with these proud eyes
The obstacles I build / are just the pedestals in my life
A stepping stone to reach greater heights

Not a day goes by where a lesson isn't learned by me the hard way
So the difficulties that life presents to me i'll take in fucking stride
and I'll gladly greet these challenges with my shoulders high

The difficulties that we face / are just the pedestals in our lives
that we will recognize with our proud eyes
The obstacles we build / are just the pedestals in our lives
To help us all reach greater heights
Don't focus on our problems or whats wrong
Cause it's conquering our fears which will make us all strong
