I get my emotional exercise jumping to conclusions Working out, to weaken my delusions My warmup starts with bad morning news This day is going south, before I get my running shoes My cardio is done when I get really mad I have a cool down period, after I get sad My endurance comes from running down my dreams Jogging in the marathons, powered by my screams My strength training routine is carrying my heavy load I get my reps from hauling it, up and down the road My form is rather rough these days, my core has gotten weak I work on my reaction time, only when I have to speak Getting stretched, I’m too thin from dodging all the lies Repetition comes from all those tries Hydration comes from crying all these tears I’ve been working out by myself for many years My well-being is based on my emotional exercise I like to start the day early, just about sunrise I exercise in my mind, workout hard most everyday I sit and think, then I write what I’m going to say Now I’ve had my workout, it’s time for me to rest I know tomorrow’s routine will keep me at my best
