Retrograde

It's been awhile but
I'm coming back again
Experience all that I am
Diametric I can't remember when
I thought I'd never give a damn
A delusive hologram

Stronger each day
Making my way
Out of retrograde
Like a blue jay
Soar from the grey
Out of retrograde

I no longer get my fix
From manipulative tricks
That I played on everyone
Grateful and able
I'm healthy and I'm stable
Visioning my direction
And I only just begun

Stronger each day
Making my way
Out of retrograde
Like a blue jay
Soar from the grey
Out of retrograde

It was the darkest time of my life
(But now she's standing tall)
With a newfound confidence
Sick of living just by the knife
(And that knock-down, drag-out brawl)
Now I'm giving proof
I'm choosing to be powerful
Believing in myself and after all!

Stronger each day
Making my way
Out of retrograde
Like a blue jay
Soar from the grey
Out of retrograde
