Yeah, sometimes ya gotta turn the page
Spinnin wheels and truckin on tryin to escalade
Starin back in the mirror it's like a masquerade
Or gazin at the ceilin and toss and turn, Cirque du Soleil
And usu-ally, I'm just used to the cycle
Tryin to balance my life while I'm walkin the tight rope
And I know, I'm too old to fall when there's no net
At a pace that is break neck
Or makin a life that's worth more than a paycheck
Yeah, (against all odds) I'm gonna keep on fightin
Even on the coldest days when the quittins enticin
Learned to roll with the bison
Grew the soul of a Viking I yeah I, still I been one too many times where
Got em all, so just stack em against me
With my back to the fence I guess I'm used to defendin
Findin my balance, there's withdraws that are pendin
Stresses carpal tunnel carpe diem, never endin
I'm always mendin, it's a part of the process
Shits overwhelmin, causin Rodman to cross dress
Yes, I've heard it's a life choice
But when it comes to such a bliss it's absorbed like a white noise
Yeah, yeah (against all odds)
Yall gonna know I hope that you know (I fought against all odds)
Throw the lefts and the rights through days and the nights (I fought against all odds)
With all my chips on the table I found out I was able and even though
Far from perfect, still goals to aspire to
After so long in hell you'll find out that you're fire-proof
So I flipped the spectrum I used, I now see more than the Blues
I recognize all the patterns, and I obtain all the clues
In hot pursuit I'm still chasin the truth
I'm bruised after I (fought against all odds) Even still
