Story Behind the Song
This song was written in one day. I had this title floating around for about 5 years and I actually realized that while looking for lyric content for this song, it was being given to me by my surroundings.
Lyrics
I'm walkin out the door lookin for my next rhyme. When you pass in front of me, with your dad on whom you rely. I can go on my way; he has to help you with yours. You put perspective in my life, without even speaking a word.
How can I thank you, for what you've given to me? Life-saver.
I lose my cool at work, something's not goin my way. The phone rings and an elderly woman asks to talk to Ray. It's the wrong number but she wishes me "a nice day." 30 seconds of therapy, for which I did not have to pay.
How do I thank you, for what you've given to me? Life-saver.
After nineteen years of silence, you pray for him to speak. Seconds, minutes, hours well how easily they turn to weeks. Years of struggle, sacrifice, and constant care. Even on an earthly saint would start to show its wear.
How do I thank you, for what you've given to me. Life-saver.
