1. Something to Hold on to – Sometimes things just don’t seem to be going your way. It may even seem like the whole world is against you. With a bit of introspection, you may find that it’s all in your mind and it’s up to you change things.

Something To Hold On To
Seems like the world is bringin’ me down
Someone always tryin’ to take away my crown
I got a chip on my shoulder, feels like a boulder to me
I know it really stinks
No my mind’s not on the blink
I got a boulder on my shoulder and it’s gettin’ heavier every day
It’s not okay
But, what more do you want me to say?
I look over my shoulder for something to hold on to
Take a little break from reality
Pushin’ pullin’ knockin’ me down
Gotta find a way to wipe away this frown
Disappear without a sound
I gotta find my way out of this town
And give it the slip
Bounce right back from another bad trip
I look over my shoulder for something to hold on to
Take a little break from insanity
Set me free
I’ve got gray clouds on a sunny day
When it’s bright outside well I get May gray
And when I finally get away
I’m gonna see the light any day
I did hip hip hooray
Take a little listen to what I say
I knocked that boulder off my shoulder
And it landed squarely on my feet
Of course it hurt
But for now I’m over the worst
I look over my shoulder for something to hold on to
Take a little break from reality
And grab a little bit of my sanity
It’s the only way that I can set me free
