Learning to Choose

[Verse]
Life is choice love it hate it
Pick your poison drown or satiate it
Negativity hangs heavy like a chain
Break it free feel the fire again
[Verse 2]
I stared too long at the shadow's glare
Caged my light in the devil's snare
Now I'm ripping through the pitch and grime
Choosing brightness owning my time
[Chorus]
If I choose negativity that's all I'll breathe
Pull me down with lies no reprieve
If I see happiness that's what I'll cry
Rising to the stars screaming I won't die
[Verse 3]
Taught by pain every sharp twist
Behind the scars a clenched fist
Learning to wield what tried to bring me low
My own choices carve the rivers that flow
[Bridge]
No more drowning in the shallow end
Every step now blaze and transcend
Find the melody in chaos and grit
Positivity's roar I won't ever quit
[Chorus]
If I choose negativity that's all I'll breathe
Pull me down with lies no reprieve
If I see happiness that's what I'll cry
Rising to the stars screaming I won't die
