Acknowledge - Screeching Weasel

I am alive

I am here, I am now

I acknowledge the fact of my life

I am alive

Breathing, walking, and smiling

Acknowledge the fact of my life

There’s a world, there’s a world

There’s a big, big world out there

Time that I stepped in

'Cause I’m getting tired of pretending that I don’t really give a shit

There was guilt and shame, there was fear and hate

But I know it’s finally time

To appreciate the perfection of all life

I am alive

I am here, I am now

I acknowledge the fact of my life

I am alive

Breathing, walking, and smiling

Acknowledge the fact of my life

All the times and places and time I’d wasted

I learned the hard way, and ever since

When I look forward and back

Well, I just gotta laugh

'Cause it hits like a ton of bricks

I laid down on the ground, and I looked around

And I saw a miracle

I appreciate the simple beauty of the world

I am alive

I am here, I am now

I acknowledge the fact of my life

I am alive

Breathing, walking, and smiling

Acknowledge the fact of my life

It came to me like a bullet to the heart

But it was there in front of me all along

So obvious

The only meaning of life is life itself

I’m not controlled by anybody else

I must get out of my way

Get out of my own way

Because I am alive

I am here, I am now

I acknowledge the fact of my life

I am alive

Breathing, walking, and smiling

Acknowledge the fact of my life

I am alive

I am alive

I am alive

I am alive

I am alive

I am alive
