lyrics

Took a look in the mirror, what did I see?
A fragile little boy looking back at me
Plagued by fears insecurities
Manipulated by emotions hopeless and weak

I hate it, it’s got to go
But the fear is so real and I’ve lost control
I got to get somewhere safe, but there’s no where to land
Cause no matter where I go, there I am

I don’t feel well and I’m not myself
I want to be left alone but should probably get help
I can feel it in my stomach, up to my chest
My only refuge is to get some rest

But the thoughts keep coming, brain gets flooded
If I don’t turn it off I’m ‘a drown in this dungeon
Mind swamped in lies
On the verge of tears but too tired to cry

Push back, fight the fear
You don’t have to give in to what you hear
Push back, guard your mind
You don’t have to listen to all the lies

Push back, fight the fear
You don’t have to give in to what you hear
Push back, guard your mind
You don’t have to listen to all the lies

I know I can do it, I know I can
I’ve done it before and I’ll do it again
I got to keep moving, I got to stay busy
I got to make it hard for IT to get me

Ignore the voices, they’re all toxic
It’s not you that’s the poison talking
They’ll soon subside
The darkness retreats when it sees the light

One day at a time
Little by little I will survive
Changing the bad script, breaking the habits
2 steps forward, 1 step backwards

I will not die, even tho it feels like that sometimes
I’m a victim no longer
Cause if it don’t kill me it makes me stronger

Push back, fight the fear
You don’t have to give in to what you hear
Push back, guard your mind
You don’t have to listen to all the lies

Push back, fight the fear
You don’t have to give in to what you hear
Push back, guard your mind
You don’t have to listen to all the lies
