Cure My Lonesome Blood by Joey Pass Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Life to me is about the eulogy, I'm seizing opportunities
All I'm seeings unity, I don't be needing scrutiny
I competed stupidly with myself and usually
Beat myself up brutally but that is who I used to be
Now I'm living beautifully, freeing my community
And teaching people truthfully
I'm breathing, got a heart that's beating
And I shine bright like my jewelry
I'm pleading for a life of purpose and not one of just foolery
I tell the devil come and settle this, come here and duel with me
Take my time, I'm not speeding, I'm proceeding to believe in
My abilities and using reason to find beacons
Celebrations, warnings and the signals come together in cohesion
Good and bad give life some meaning and keep it even
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
I know who I want to be I just need to grasp it
Got time to create myself but time ain't everlasting
The future is uncertain so there's no sense on forecasting
The very next moment 'cause no one knows what could happen
I won't know all the answers, even if I keep on asking
There's nothing lacking from my life but I get sad when
My life starts flashing before my eyes as seconds passing
So I'm relaxing, finding my passion and laughing
It's crazy, crazy how much, how much happens on the daily
Each experience I have truly does affect me greatly
Am I taking risks? And living on the edge bravely
Or stuck in my comfort zone, enjoying the safety, hmm...
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Once I woke up to my dream, I started to notice
Love is all I need and all the rest is just a bonus
Even at my lowest during all those moments
Where I was feeling hopeless, I focused on my motives
And bounced back, yeah that's a fact
Right back on track, man how about that
Guess the glass is half full even when it's cracked
Happiness is always close by, sometimes its just hiding
An invisible hand is always guiding and will arrive when
I need it the most and I'll be lighting up from its sighting, yup
Knowing I will get what I need when I need it is quite exciting stuff
Peace of mind can be mine and it's something I must find
Until then I'll align with the signs and be just fine
[Chorus]
