I've been so far down that the ground was out of reach
My kind of hell has heard the keynote speech
Holding on to hope that things will change
Cursing out the hurt and all the pain
Suddenly the sun began to shine
The light flowed through my soul into my mind
I learned to keep my focus on the sky
Here's the reason why I feel alive
Life has two rules
Number one is never give up
Life has two rules
Number two is always remember number one
I have seen a place that's so dismal and so dark
Midnight in my mind released an aftershock
Doubting Thomas robbing like a thief
Praying for the words to spell relief
Suddenly the sun began to shine
The light flowed through my soul into my mind
I learned to keep my focus on the sky
Here's the reason why I feel alive
Life has two rules
Number one is never give up
Life has two rules
Number two is always remember number one
Call me a fool for the vein that I have hit
I'm the type that vows to never ever quit
Life has two rules
Number one is never give up
Life has two rules
Number two is always remember number one
Life has two rules
Number one is never give up
Life has two rules
Number two is always remember number one
