Jess Jackson & Leon Shelley - Resilience Lyrics

It takes guts, to pull yourself together
It takes heart, to love yourself
It takes soul, to make peace with it all
The water ran dry, the water ran dry
The water ran dry, and fell from my eyes
To my surprise, I made it through alive
Hanging in the balance, the words I can say
Walking on eggshells, the crackin's keeping me awake
How do I hang on to hope, when we're all hanging from a rope?
The water ran dry, the water ran dry
The water ran dry, and fell from my eyes
To my surprise, I made it through alive
Let's talk about resilience, in every experience
The world is so hideous, admiring your brilliance
Holding onto dissonance, suffering in silence
I'm screaming like an idiot, denying oblivion
I wanna be, somebody stable
I wanna be, closer to God
I wanna really know what it feels like to be free
The water ran dry, the water ran dry
The water ran dry, and fell from my eyes
To my surprise, I made it through alive
