Tarwater
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Got my back up against the wall
nowhere left to fall
Nobody out here knows my name
I got a story left to tell
I hope you know quite well
I’m not a quitter and i won’t just go away
If you see me and i’m standing out here on my own,
Just know that you’re with me
I’ll be the one with my arms wide open
I’ll be the one with my head held high
I’ll be the one with my heart on fire
Yeah that’s me i’ll be the fighter
Ya see me bleed and you hear my cry
I hope you know that I’m just like you
When you realize what you want
Then you give it one more shot
You leave it all and no one can take it away
I can feel it in the crowd
I just wanna make you proud
It took a long time to get here, baby, it took a long time
I’ve been stumblin here for all my life
But not tonight
See it on my face
Wear it on my sleeve
I’ve been tryin hard for all my life
Feelin like defeat
but wantin victory
I’ve been tryin so hard
