Against It All

Verse 1----

-My mind is broken; tiny pieces on the floor

Salvation hopeless; locked in a room with no doors

No air, I’m choking. How am I to carry on?

Or is my fate to be nevermore?

-My body’s caving in; the darkness takes over my vision

My path is paved with fear; all the voices want me to just give up

I will not bow to the pain; I pick myself back up and roar

And stand tall against it all

Hook----

-Give me my pain (Even if it breaks my bones)

Get out my way (I’m about to risk it all)

I found my strength (I’m ready, so bring it on)

Back to the wall, I will not fall

-Give me my pain (Even if it breaks my bones)

Get out my way (I’m about to risk it all)

I found my strength (I’m ready, so bring it on)

I’ll stand tall against it all

Verse 2----

-I’ve been living in a place not far from shame

A burden I can hardly face

Right when I feel myself in need

I release the beast in me, let’s go

-So bring it on; I will take everything all in stride

Watch me rise; reach deep inside to find the will to survive

Even if I stand alone I will fight with all my might

And break free from the lies; racing for the light

I will find my wings then I’ll fly

-Chop me but like a weed I will grow right back

Block me and shackle my feet, still I walk my path

No rest for me till I see that I’m on the right track

I’ll give my all even if it breaks my back

Hook----

Verse 3----

-So let the storm come, I’ll take it on (and I)

I’ll face the rain as the lightning strikes at me

Give me your best; you can’t break me down (and I)

Will sacrifice all the life that burns in me

-To the bitter end, I’m giving everything within

Never bend to your whims when you condescend

And pretend that I’ve been so incompetent

I’m done with this here nonsense I’m off to win

-And if I fail, it’ll be on me

No longer will I live in your shadow, just let me be

I’m complete; flew the coop, and I found my peace

And I still say “Thank you” to those who doubt me

-I know it’s a bit surprising, but like that bird, from the ash I’m rising

Success, so tantalizing; I chase my dreams, I don’t take em lightly

You try to victimize me, but I feel the brave one deep inside me

Straight for that top I’m climbing, and I think now is no better timing. GO!
