LYRICS
Letting go of everything that has ever had a hold of me
No more running when I’m scared
Running never gets me anywhere
I used to care but now it’s whatever
They don’t want you to do better
They’ll get you down if you let em
Just remember, no pain is forever
I know it’s hard to forget, how wrong they did you
All of the shit that you’ve been through
All of the fights you got into
Just remember that God is still with you.
They want to bring me down,
Bring me down,
Ohhhh
They can’t bring me down,
Bring me down,
Ohhhh
Life is one big fight
Every day and every night
We goanna be alright
Yeah, we goanna be alright
Life is one big fight
For heavens sake
Everyone is out here for themselves
Give or take
A couple broken hearts as long as
They get everything they needed from you
But you can never let them feel like they are above you
Above you
Life can be cool, Life can be hard
Got to keep fighting, don’t let down your guard
The battles you’ve been through make you who you are
I had to learn how to be proud of my scars.
Cause life can be so hard
Soooo hard
And I know you just feel like letting go
Everything is way too heavy
Nobody is every ready to be ready
And I know you just feel like letting go
Everything is way too heavy
Nobody is ever ready to be ready
And I know you’ve been stressing
It’s okay cause your blessing’s on the way
Don’t you worry about what they say
What they say…
They can’t break you down
Break you
Ohhh
Life is one big fight
Everyday and every night
We goanna be alright
Yeah, we goanna be alright

Trail and error,
Lessons and mistakes,
Through test and lecture,
The world can our spirit break.
But in our most fragile moments,
When things seem dark and unfair,
The soul finds strength against opponents,
Marking peace and mindful repair.
No journey without its obstacles is complete,
Than progressing forth in strides after defeat.

Love the fact that you started off the poem with some rhetorical questions…and nice use of apostrophe. Love it.
I will not let you hold me down
I wont let you ruin me
All our sins will be washed away
And no-one else will see
Every day in life
Is such a difficult fight
But you cannot hold me
You no longer have the right
Your past transgressions are forgiven
But will never be forgotten
There’s so much power in this poem. At first, I thought i could make it a mantra that I’ll recite daily for a moral boost. Love it. Thanks for sharing โ๏ธ๐
Freeze, flight, fight
Which choice is right
When I freeze
People do what they please
โfriendsโ with toxic thoughts
and actions that bring me to my knees
and I don’t even charge service fees
When I take flight
I think that I am alright
But I am plagued with the idea
that something will happen in the night
something I left behind, a loose end
that should be tight
making me paranoid
living in fright
So I choose to fight
no more running away
I will stand my ground
I mean what I say
No more regrets
No more blues
I choose to fight
whether I win or lose –
– TM (Mr Bass in Your Face)

We fight for the right
For what we know is right
Love is the struggle
Love is the fight
We have our ups and downs
On a rollercoaster ride
We break up we make up
Over time we get to know each other
Life is about the things we learn
Survive on the money we earn
Life is about love

Wow, love this ๐๐ค๐๐. You got game! ๐๐คโฎ๏ธ๐
By the way, I love this song! ๐๐๐๐
I’m glad you do. Tatiana is a good artist
Pain n i found balance
hypnotized in
marooned silence
paroxysm of tears
devour the dreaded fear
of this panelled darkness
Life fragmented arias
bloom on vivid yellow
constellation of dreams
plucked from time
winds of change
plays around my thighs.
