lyrics

I Kicked Cancer's Ass

I kicked cancer's ass
I didn't give it half a chance
A tumor in my neck was no match for my fortitude
They slit my throat
And yeah that was all she wrote
I told you not to mess with me but now things just got real

CHORUS:
Nothing to say without being said
I'm free from the demons in my head
Not feeling sick, yeah I'm feeling well
No I shouldn't brag, but what the hell
No I shouldn't brag, but what the hell

I kicked cancer's ass
I knew it wouldn't last
I've weathered surgeries and radiation

Full speed ahead
Yeah, I'll worry 'bout it when I'm dead
I know it might sound crass, but I don't really give a damn

CHORUS:
Nothing to say without being said
I'm free from the demons in my head
Not feeling sick, yeah I'm feeling well
No I shouldn't brag, but what the hell
No I shouldn't brag, but what the hell
