TMF Story

TMF

Cancer! The word no parent wants to hear when taking a child to the doctor. That’s exactly what happened to us and our families; Mike and his family in January 2018 and Terry and his family in November 2021. Mike’s daughter Alexandra, 28, was diagnosed with AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia) and Terry’s daughter Ida, 26, was diagnosed with DLBCL (Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma), 2 cancers that primarily strike down people well into their 60s and have very low survival rates. This song got its start in 2017 without lyrics but it wasn’t until we saw how strong, brave and powerful our daughters are that it gave this song a new life (much like the great doctors who cared for our children) with lyrics that tell exactly how badass our kids can be. Not everyone has the same journey, but everyone has the same message…FUCK CANCER!!!

TMF Lyrics

-----

Save all my time to use when I need it
The darkest place in the back of my mind
Set a course gonna fight my way through it
Fuck up this cancer that’s invading my life
No idea about the pain I’ve been feeling
No restitution for the damages done
My bodies dying and it feels like I’m slipping
I’m being drained within an inch of my life

I’m not ready to go down so
Quit your bitchin’ about your life
Get up off of your ass and fight
Toughest mother fucker we’ve ever seen

Forget about the parties and vacations
Have to focus on what needs to be done
Tie up the loose ends I may not have a future
Forget about the pain my body is numb
Don’t say you’re sorry and you wish you could take it
You’ll be tangled in the web that you’ve spun
I hold my own I know that I’m gonna make it
I may be down but I’m up for this fight

I’m not ready to go down so
Quit your bitchin’ about your life
Get up off of your ass let’s go
Come on, come on, hey!
I’m not ready to go down so
Quit your bitchin’ about your life
Get up off of your ass and fight
Toughest mother fucker we’ve ever seen

I will not go down slowly
My best friend just Rick Rolled me
And you know that I still have my sense of humor
And if you think I don’t
If you god damned think I don’t
Well I’ve got news for you
I’m not ready to lay down and…Die!

I’m not ready to go down so
Quit your bitchin’ about your life
Get up off of your ass let’s go
Come on, come on
I’m not ready to go down so
Quit your bitchin’ about your life
Get up off of your ass and fight
I’m not ready to go down so
Quit your bitchin’ about your life
Get up off of your ass,
Let’s Go!
