~Take Your Power Back~
~Take Your Power Back~
*AGM*
You feel so weak
Can't make decisions
Confusion rules
your every move
Smothering in a bubble
Of your making
Hiding from reality
Searching for who you were
Love
Trust
Stability
Friendship
Are all things of the past
You don't know anymore
right from wrong
No longer can sing a song
Downhill you slide
Deeper, deeper
into seclusion
No one to pull you out
At the bottom
all you see
is what you used to be
Weak, weaker, weakest
A shell of who you were
Remembering
The time when you were
Strong
enough to make it on your own
A lover
A friend
A stranger
The world
Took the Power
That made you
who you were
Knew what to do
When to let go
And move on
stronger each time
living through
Loss, pain, a damaged soul
Somewhere it all went bad
You gave up
to the things others
planted in your head
sucking away all strength
Lowest is as far as you go
Time to get up
claw your way
back up that hill
Stand up, do you feel it?
The strength running
through your blood
The clouds departing
from your head
Heart beating strong
the proud head
held high
Once more
Keep reaching
Take that power back!
Throw the weakness back
at those who gave it
Push them out of the way
Now its your time to play
Make it your way
Never give in
Take your power back
Take your strength
Walk away
You got you back
never let it get away....
