Verse 1

I mean it’s like;

Flying just to get caged,

Lying to just save face

People and their words like spades

Get in my head

Robbing my blasé.

My fire wet with blood

These arrows Pierce quite well

Lost all that I thought I was;

Nobody cares

Get that in my head.

Chorus

There's this feeling, that I’ve been dreading

Get it off my mind.

I’m afraid of things that could pull me

off my tide

I don’t wanna fix people

That I’ve left behind.

The fear that's been chaining me up

has got no hold of my life

I’m gonna get it off my mind.

verse 2

Every day now was a fear I once dreaded,

These shoes aren't tired of trading

Let go of all the things that

don't let you grow,

Get to the finish line,

Close those ugly doors.

This heart’s already been wounded

She's on the road for some healing

do or die

her life is on the line.

(Chorus)
