After The Enemy (ft. Jocko Willink)
What motivates me?
First of all, with the man in the cave
And this idea and this thought of the enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me and make me get up early and work hard to push myself
Because I knew that somewhere out there, there was an enemy
A real enemy, a real man, a person, a human that was waiting
That was preparing for me
And therefore, I needed to prepare for him
I needed to be ready I needed to be the things I always talk about
I needed to be stronger, faster, and smarter and better
So that when we did meet on the battlefield
I would be ready for that rendezvous, for that meeting, that fate, that battle
And that thought, that thought of the enemy, it absolutely fueled me
[Chorus]
The enemy
That was a thought that used to drive me
And kinda haunt me
The enemy

Even In Death (ft. Jocko Willink)
How does good apply to the worst of losses
The death of a loved one?
It's easy to think that there's nothing good in death
But then I remember the people I have lost throughout my life
The memories of them
The experiences, the fun
Their unique personalities, and everything they gave me
Not only in their life, but in their death
What their life taught me, and what their death taught me
The mark they had left on me
And I realized there is good
Even in death
[Chorus]
There is good
Even in death
There is good, there is good
Even in death
There is good

IF (ft. Jocko Willink)
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies
Or being hated, don't give way to hating
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise
If you can dream and not make dreams your master
If you can think and not make thoughts your aim
If you can meet triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools

What Are You Going To Do? (ft. Jocko Willink)
Sometimes bad things, horrible things, happen to good people
I don't know why
But life isn't fair
That's the reality and
Diseases, cancer, MS, horrible diseases and accidents, these things
A good person in the wrong place, in the wrong time
Can end up just a victim of fate and of reality
And it can be horrible and heart-wrenching
But when those bad things happen to people around you
[Chorus]
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
Going to do
When bad things happen
What are you going to do?
Going to do
When bad things happen
What are you going to do?
How are you going to lead?
Are you gonna get angry?
Are you gonna get frustrated?
Are you gonna lash out at people? Who are you gonna lash out at anyways?
Are you gonna start going down the spiral of negativity?
Are you gonna let this horrible situation dictate
I don't know why
But life isn't fair
That's the reality and
Diseases, cancer, MS, horrible diseases and accidents, these things
A good person in the wrong place, in the wrong time
Can end up just a victim of fate and of reality
And it can be horrible and heart-wrenching
But when those bad things happen to people around you
[Chorus]
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
Going to do
When bad things happen
What are you going to do?
Going to do
When bad things happen
What are you going to do?
How are you going to lead?
Are you gonna get angry?
Are you gonna get frustrated?
Are you gonna lash out at people? Who are you gonna lash out at anyways?
Are you gonna start going down the spiral of negativity?
Are you gonna let this horrible situation dictate
Losing Control (ft. Jocko Willink)
When I realized
That losing your temper was a sign of weakness
As soon as I made that connection
I said to myself, "This is weak I'm gonna try not to do it anymore"
And what's weird is when you're a kid
And you'd see someone get angry and it made you afraid
For a while, I saw it as like a power
A way to achieve power
That you can lose your temper and then all of a sudden
You have this extra strength and
But when you're a little kid, if I could get that rage going
And people are scared, like I used to feel, that's a positive thing
And then, as I got older
I realized, hey
This isn't cool
This isn't strength, it's actually weakness
And I didn't realize that overnight, but I started getting the idea
That that was weakness
And now when you see someone that is in control
And even when bad things are happening, standing stoically, said, "Okay"

All Your Excuses Are Lies (ft. Jocko Willink)
[Echo] Jocko, I am a chronic excuse maker
How do I stop making excuses and get things done?
Chronic excuse maker?
How do you stop making excuses?
This is actually pretty simple
And I said it the other day, and you have to realize
You have to know, you have to accept that
[Chorus]
All your excuses are lies
All your excuses are lies
Just think about the lies you've used to rationalize
Taking the easy road
Taking the easy road and leaving discipline behind
Your excuses are lies
Think about them
You don't have time
That's a lie
You don't have support
That's a lie

I Feel Fine (ft. Jocko Willink)
The scuba training
They would do very traumatic things to you
Underwater with your scuba gear on
Rip it off, rip your face mask off
Tie your regulator hoses in knots, just create total mayhem
And eventually they'd do things that are so horrible to you
That you had to come to the surface and when you came to the surface
What they told you to do immediately was say the words
[Chorus]
I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine
I feel fine

One Shot (ft. Jocko Willink)
There's so much knowledge out there
There's so much information, so many ways to get better
And we make, we make so many mistakes
We're the product of our mistakes
And oftentimes the lesson is sitting there right in front of our face
It's there to be learned, but we miss it or we don't pay attention to it
Or we think we know better, until it punches us in the face
And the most important thing to learn is that we have so much to learn
We all do
And we can learn from school and people and from experience
And we learn from life
[Chorus]
You get one shot
One shot at this gig right here
Life
One life, that's all you got
One life
One shot
But you have to process the information and you have to absorb it
