Throttle

"THROTTLE"

If we stood tall after overcoming our greatest fears

Maybe we would know that most of our problems are self inflicted circumstances

Fighting bacteria is so much different then fighting adversity

Maybe a newer perspective is needed

To show that we don't need to be sweating 24 hours a day

Just to justify the roof over are head

Bur on the other side of things

Not everyone needs to pretend they are so pure

We're in this together and still far apart

Our virtues clash with the sensitivity of teeth feeling it's worth being tested at a candy store in hell

Too cheesy for you ?

Well, maybe that's meant to be the way of this world

Cheesy as all hell

Yet still worth living

If we somehow make it out alive
