I Survive

(앨범: Tracing Back Roots - 2013)

Holding on with all I have inside
For the sake of my life
I'm pulled underwater

Crying out I call
For anyone to share this fight
But I'm sinking farther

So weathered,
Worn and battered,
I will stay
Keep treading,
As I'm dreading the waves

My hands are tied
But I will make it
I'm not shaken
Even when my mind's exhausted, I survive
And the world tries to drown you out (I survive)
Flooding your life like water-filled lungs (I survive)

Waiting for the day
This storm will pass and leave my life
It only makes me stronger
I don't want to wait,
But all that has been on my mind
Is how much longer?

So weathered,
Worn and battered,
I will stay
Keep treading,
As I'm dreading the waves

My hands are tied
But I will make it
I'm not shaken
Even when my mind's exhausted, I survive
And the world tries to drown you out (I survive)
Flooding your life like water-filled lungs (I survive)
And the waves try to wash you away (I survive)
Brace yourself, head high, heart strong (I survive)

I will keep my
Head and heart above the waves

My hands are tied
But I will make it
I'm not shaken
Even when my mind's exhausted, I survive

My heart is tired but it's not breaking (It's not breaking)
Now I'm awakened (I'm awakened)
No matter what the cost is, I survive
And the world tries to drown you out (I survive)
Flooding your life like water-filled lungs (I survive)
And the waves try to wash you away (I survive)
Brace yourself, head high, heart strong (I survive)
