lyrics

It happened in such a way
That everything came into question
Right

Am i gonna be able to
Take care of myself
Ok, i'm taking care of myself pretty well
But can i take care of my family

Cause there's a lot of this
After the injury stuff
That you're just recovering
But you're not -- you don't feel like
You're contributing anything to anybody

You're just costing
I mean, it's really about
What's your purpose
And i think we all question our purpose
Clearly, for me, after the accident
I realized that
Alright i'm here. i'm alive. so why
Right? and what should i take from that
