Jeff Martin - Our Story lyrics

[Intro: Jeff Martin] Oo yeah yeah yeah Oo yeah yeah yeah Oo yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah [Verse 1: Jeff Martin] Take a minute, take a listen To this story of enrichment Not too complicated, yeah, I like to keep these things simplistic Tell the tale of insanity, morality, brutality, profanity But this is our story now A couple years ago, I never thought I'd even make it The voices in my head would tell me that I just was a kid Feeling down, I would turn to my spiral instead Wrote a bunch of things down that don't even make sense But finding peace, finding love, finding hope from up above I would turn to my spiral and I'd see those words were rough Read 'em over and over until my face was full of tears 'Cause I thought about the people that were bald with no hair People starvin,' people thirsty, life is truly unfair Life is tough, but my life doesn't even compare I made a promise, made commitments, read my dues and my vows For those who stay strong [Hook: Jeff Martin] This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Shine like the sun, the struggles done, we're way too young This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Just drop the guns, the war's been won, we've overcome This is our story now [Verse 2: Jeff Martin] Words hurt, sticks and stones may break my bones Think they'd notice me gone or am I just unknown? Is there light in the tunnel? Who really knows I always put my head down, try and hide the shame Am I alone? Or are people going through the same? It's humiliating illustrating how a human being goes through pain by others just to feel exhilarating Stay strong, stand up, this journey's long Find right from wrong and where you belong 'Cause when it's over and done When the lights been drawn You can tell 'em you made it and it's just begun Stage light gon' shine on down And you'll travel 'round the world, go to different towns Just close your eyes, then take a bow For those who stay strong [Hook: Jeff Martin] This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Shine like the sun, the struggles done, we're way too young This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Just drop the guns, the war's been won, we've overcome This is our story now [Bridge: Jeff Martin] Blue birds are singin,' those bell are ringin' Relax your mind, time starts to fly Just search for love, don't push and shove You hear the sounds, our story now Blue birds are singin,' those bell are ringin' Relax your mind, time starts to fly Just search for love, don't push and shove Slow it down [Hook: Jeff Martin] This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Shine like the sun, the struggles done, we're way too young This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Just drop the guns, the war's been won, we've overcome This is our story now This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Shine like the sun, the struggles done, we're way too young This is our story now This is our story now This this is our story now Just drop the guns, the war's been won, we've overcome This is our story now
