Horizon by Scott Merriman (The Leukemia Lad) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’m the type of guy to always try and never quit
Life feels like I’m tryna to climb up Everest
Every single obstacle I find is treacherous
I know I’m strong, but I can’t deny I’m very sick
Living with Leukemia has given me anaemia
Plus, I’m pissed off at everything that’s in the media
Bad news is everywhere, it’s all I ever hear
Sad news is everywhere, it’s always in my ear
All across the globe, we are hustling, trying
Struggling, crying, suffering, dying
This world is chilling, the earth keeps spinning
The tears in your eyes really blur your vision
Some people think there’s nothing worse than sinning
Some people are killing while the birds are singing
Forget the negativity, we want the positivity
We’ve gotta clear our minds and start thinking optimistically
Acting like a pessimist is never gonna get you it
It’s only gonna let you slip, leaving you forever pissed
Know what your vision is, be passionate and proud
And do what is different to stand out from the crowd
[Chorus x2]
One day, we will leave this all behind
We’re heading for a better place where everything is fine
A wonderful place where the earth meets the sky
It’s called the horizon, it really is divine
[Verse 2]
It’s hard to be positive when life is very gloomy
I keep on having nightmares that are frightening and spooky
I see myself deceased every time I sleep
Life is over now, things are easy, I’m in peace
Is this a nightmare or is it just a dream?
A peaceful place where nothing is extreme
Some people call it paradise, believing that it’s very nice
So wonderful and chill with a feeling of delight
I’m not ready yet, I’m still alive so I
Will do what I’ve gotta do to try survive
I really need that happiness inside my mind
The clock’s ticking fast, but my time to shine
Is right there in front of me, it’s the horizon
It’s so mesmerising the way the sun is shining
But I am tiring, forever I’ve been trying
It’s like I’ll never make it as if I am declining
I’ve gotta have the strength and energy inside
See quitting is an option but I’ve never been that guy
To give up on my dreams, I could never let it slide
I’m just living for today ‘cus yesterday has died
[Chorus x2]
One day, we will leave this all behind
We’re heading for a better place where everything is fine
A wonderful place where the earth meets the sky
It’s called the horizon, it really is divine
[Verse 3]
This life’s hard so you’ve gotta fight hard
Even though it’s quite dark, you can be a bright spark
Great like a white shark, swimming in the ocean
So strong, life’s vicious and ferocious
It can break you down like a building that’s imploding
So, you’ve gotta get up and be living for the moment
Sad things happen to be grilling your emotions
Positivity is the thing to be approaching
Chilling with your loved ones, giggling and joking
Life can be sweet, not bitter and atrocious
Help people out if they’re miserable and hopeless
Please pick them up if they’re brittle or they’re broken
We can unite, today or tonight
We don’t have to fall out, argue, and fight
The sun is shining bright and it’s looking very nice
The horizon’s in sight, it’s a wonderful delight
So, keep your eyes open and focus on your goal
No matter what happens, have hope inside your soul
Enjoy that journey there as you go along that road
You’ll eventually get there, just know it might be slow
