Even Clouds Break - Amity

Time can move past slowly, too fast or stop still/

The clock ticks, if you can’t change then what will?/

We tip the sand out and powder the grains/

To slow the minute hand down and we count them away/

Because death is stalking so I guess that I’m a dead man walking/

Yet I always look where I step and I put my best foot forward/

I can’t afford to regret so I respect the more I get/

Given in an attempt to keep the devil dormant/

Since a kid been infatuated with words/

I’d write stories and poems and practise making a verse/

It let me express myself and my passion gave me the urge/

To rap and convinced me of what I have to say to the world/

Too many times we’re afraid of our goals/

And when we’re unhappy with life it begins taking its toll/

Following your heart is a part of breaking the mould/

And if you can’t then it’s not the card’s that’s making you fold

Hook:

If you’re breaking down and you feel the ground shake/

Remember there’s someone else just like you/

We can’t have everything being our way/

But even clouds break to let the sun shine through/

So if you’re trying to keep it downplayed/

Release it, you need to keep an upright view/

And don’t stop until you see your frown fade/

‘Cause even clouds break to let the sun shine through

Isn’t it funny how we want to be found/

But we feel most alone when we’re lost in a crowd?/

We get what we want then all we’re wanting is out/

And we’re scared to spread our wings in case we drop to the ground/

If you’re searching for your purpose in life/

You can’t sit back and let another person decide/

Some people feel worthless and determined to die/

But take it from me, those who push further survive/

Perseverance is the way that you learn from mistakes/

So go full steam ahead with no concern for the brakes/

Do your best and you know that you’ll earn what you make/

It’s not about where you finish but the journey you take/

Don’t miss your chance to weather the darker skies/

The reward of your efforts depends on how hard you try/

Because even if you can’t stand up from half the climb/

Whether you think that you can or you can’t, you’re right

‘Cause even clouds break to let the sun shine through

If you’re broken and hoping to get out of this mess/

Because you can’t cope with copious amounts of stress/

Count your breaths and step back from the mountain’s edge/

And the frozen ocean, home is around the bend/

If I can help someone who’s going through pain/

And reach you, even if only one can relate/

That means more than what any other number could say/

The light of mine and your smiles will be the sun in the rain/

One person might not be able to make a difference/

But maybe I could lead the way and just sway opinions/

I’m not trying to say that I’ll save the children/

But maybe there’ll be somebody waiting who may just hear it/

If you want to get away from the burden of life/

I’ll try to entertain you if you’ve heard of my rhymes/

And if you’re asking me why then I’ll say/

«I'm just trying to make the world a better place one word at a time.»
