lyrics

It kills me to see you
Holding all the weight and still you
Continue to smile
Hiding all the pain and while
There’s no one to help you
To see through all the things you go through
But one day you’ll learn to
Rise against the world around you

Don’t give in
Don’t give up
Keep living for tomorrow
Stop making excuses
Waste away the fear that follows
No worries no more set backs
I’ll face the facts I’ll face the past
I’ll set it off and I’ll make it last
No time for second thoughts
One chance is all we’ve got
Self doubt will face defeat
Keep ground beneath your feet

I will not be afraid I’ll be the one above it all I’ll show them all I’ll raise the tides I’ll stand with pride I’ll be alright I know I’m not alone I’ll make this path my own
(Don’t be afraid the fight inside in time will slowly fade away)

They prey on the weak
You were too blind to see
What they took from you
The life that you had and knew
So long as you breathe
You will see all you need
Is what lies in you
The heart and strength to breakthrough

The struggle
The torture
Survival from horrors
Our masters
Disasters
They are cancer lacking candor

Don’t give in
Don’t give up
Keep living for tomorrow
Stop making excuses
Waste away the fear that follows
No worries no more set backs
I’ll face the facts I’ll face the past
I’ll set it off and I’ll make it last
No time for second thoughts
One chance is all we’ve got
Self doubt will face defeat
Keep ground beneath your feet

They prey on the weak
You were too blind to see
What they took from you
The life that you had and knew
So long as you breathe
You will see all you need
Is what lies in you
The heart and strength to breakthrough
