Daniel Cook - You've Got a Story

I was walking down
On a memory lane
And I couldn't help but
Notice a familiar face
He was rolling
With a limp
He was blowing
With the breeze
I couldn't tell
Who he was
And realized it was me
I had to know
What he was thinking
With a pack of smokes
Yeah
Baffled and amazed
I was what he was
Soon to be
He didn't seem
To be in school
So I knew
He was truancy
A lonely living soul
So I walked right
Up to him
I forgot how to talk
Like him
No longer fluent
He looked at me
With sorrow in
His eyes
Then he masked it
By asking me
"Can I borrow a light?"
And with empathy
I said to me
"I know that despite
Your current life
You have it inside
'Cuz one day
you 'gon shine"
Yeah
You've got a story
It'd be a shame
To miss out
On the Glory
Don't have another
Heart attack
You need some
Peace and love
We need some
Peace and love
Ah
Ah
I know you wanna
Give up, but
Keep on going
Keep your chin up
I know you wanna
Run fast
You just got to
Give it time
Don't disregard
All the small things
In your life
You can't go back
To the past
You can't keep
Wearing masks
I know these demons
Haunt you
But nothing ever lasts
'Cuz You've got a Story
It'd be a shame
To miss out on the Glory
Don't have another
Heart attack
You need some
Peace and love
We need some
Peace and love
I know you got
A thorn on your side
I know there's a split
Down the middle of
Your heart
Like a Faultline
But every story comes
With a little bit of
Hard times
It's inevitable that you'll
Have a couple scar lines
It's in the setting
Conflict
Character dialogue
Plots and the themes
Plus the climax to
Rise on
You've got a story
It'd be a shame
To miss out on the Glory
Don't have another
Heart attack
You need some
Peace and love
We need some
Peace and love
Don't have another
Heart attack
Don't have another
Heart attack
Don't have another
Heart attack
Don't have another
Heart attack
