(Verse 1) 
 
It’s a sad story, 
Sickness gets the glory. 
It takes ahold of you and you cannot fight back. 
The scary ABGs, 
Ambulance transportation, 
Not knowing where or who you are suddenly. 
 
(PreChorus) 
 
But then they get your vitals to go down, 
And you are free enough to take the crown. 
You are a survivor. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
You have beaten death, 
You’ve beaten the one thing that tried to take your only breath, 
Let’s celebrate, yeah? 
Turn strangers’ heads, 
Finally get back. 
Who are you, sepsis? 
Who are you, sepsis? 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
So it’s in your bloodstream, 
Who says you can’t beat it? 
Your gurney Velcro sticks, don’t listen. 
Your tachycardia, 
Is not a part of you. 
It is not stronger, 
Though it likes to pretend it is. 
 
(PreChorus) 
 
You step off the throne, say “I give up”, 
But I know you feel it too you want the cold cup. 
‘Cause you’re a survivor. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
You have beaten death, 
You’ve beaten the one thing that tried to take your only breath, 
Let’s celebrate, yeah? 
Turn strangers’ heads, 
Finally get back. 
Who are you, sepsis?
