Coffee Cup - A Firm Handshake/Zach Sobiech/Sammy Brown
I think I'm seeing things in my coffee cup
And I don't know if all these dreams will ever be enough
To keep me truckin' along this dusty
Potholed road
I suppose I should be going now
My coffee's getting cold
Just like my soul
Sunrise sunset doesn't matter
It's always the same
The sun is moving all the time
But we're the ones changing
Ranges of emotion cluttering my mind
Bouncing through my body
Destroying my insides
But please don't take my soul;
It's the thing I need most
Times's a-wasting my breath's becoming short
Waiting for an answer but it's time I can't afford
Begging and bartering has become my last resort
It's up to me to acknowledge or to ignore:
Time
What's the point of wondering when nothing's getting done
And what's the use of marching to the beat of your own drum
When you're out of tune and have no rhythm
And you're all torn up
Well Father
If it is your will then please just take this cup
Take this cup
So I put on my helmet and I strap on my boots
The rest of it is uphill and I know that I may lose
But there's no chance of gaining if I never even try
And I would like to know myself before I have to die
As I sigh my last sigh
Times's a-wasting my breath's becoming short
Waiting for an answer but it's time I can't afford
Begging and bartering has become my last resort
It's up to me to acknowledge or to ignore:
Time
Time to listen time to learn
Time to rise up from these ashes of my burned
And broken life that I led
To save my soul no longer dead
My soul no longer dead
