We are constantly cutting Through negativity Hardship Reality It’s easy when we’re nice and sharp But even the sharpest blade is bound to dull Making life harder to cut through Hardships get harder Negativity gets more negative reality gets real Until eventually we can no longer cut Broken We feel useless But there’s hope When you oil a machine Sharpen a blade It doesn’t make it new again But it makes it much better Much sharper Comparable to when it was new Much like a machine if you take care of yourself you can go much longer Therapy Medicine Make life worth living Sharpen the blade that is your life It’s okay to be dull It’s okay not to be okay

Sharpen the blade
We are constantly cutting Through negativity Hardship Reality It’s easy when we’re nice and sharp But even the sharpest blade is bound to dull Making life harder to cut through Hardships get harder Negativity gets more negative reality gets real Until eventually we can no longer cut Broken We feel useless But there’s hope When you oil a machine Sharpen a blade It doesn’t make it new again But it makes it much better Much sharper Comparable to when it was new Much like a machine if you take care of yourself you can go much longer Therapy Medicine Make life worth living Sharpen the blade that is your life It’s okay to be dull It’s okay not to be okay
