Christian Brown - Numbers and Courage

What does it mean to be courageous?
Does it mean to push fear away and be adventurous
I'm asking questions, that we all know the answer too
But who is courageous I mean who! ?
To be honest I only hear of it...
But never see it
Obviously the men and women of the law
And military
Have a strong will to protect us
But other then that who...is courageous
I know within our hearts we hold pride
And unlike treasure it is not something we hide
I believe that within us holds the key to everything
To medical uses, science, love, and marketing
If we can poor technology out of our ear
Then...why is there so little courage and so much fear
For most it's the same cliche routine...
Get up go to work come back every now and then family
Only few go high...and most are miserable so many
Rushing to work always in a hurry
And when life gives them lemons
There lips twist and throw them away
When opportunity comes knocking at their door
We send them back, like they were some kind of ogre
Take deep breath and a great look at yourself
Are you the kind that think your already in hell?
Why do you think, that you think that it is that way
Why oh why
If you close your eyes and count to ten
Numbers will race through the mind and you will open them
Right after you get...to the very first 2 digit number
You see reality...amazing
Yet no matter how hard you try to count different
It'll be the same
Whether you start from one or seven
You'll still open your eyes...and see that you are not in hell
...but in heaven
