lyrics

So many times // I’ve gone through life
Wondering // what if, when, and how
With no progress // and when it circles back
It’s all because I’m

Scared for my life // pressed between my thoughts and them
The nay-sayers and dream-slayers // weighing in and crushing me slowly

I begin by slipping // I can’t make up my mind
Growing more uncertain // as I begin to cave

I’m ready to ascend // and realize my worth

C
Right as I give in to doubt // I look inwards and I shout
I won’t give in
‘Cuz if I’m truly wanting more // to go down in legend and in lore
I will stand tall // and push through all this spite and hate I hear

V2
Just stop with the reasons // I don’t need your scales of justice
For once hear me out // I don’t care for your approval
In the longest time I thought that // that’s the key to life
But no one cares about me // so I don’t care what you say

I bit my tongue for so long // now it’s time to make my move
One time for the haters // and one time for my self

Watch me succeed // I’ll do it on my own

C
Right as I give in to doubt // I look inwards and I shout
I won’t give in
‘Cuz if I’m truly wanting more // to go down in legend and in lore
I will stand tall // and push through all this spite and hate I hear
