Never Back Down

"NEVER BACK DOWN"

WHAT IS  FOR YOU LIFE

IS IT FOR YOU ONLY A GOOD VIBE
OR A KIND OF SACRIFICE

TRYING TO BE WHAT YOU ARE NOT
SO THAT NO ONE PUTS ON YOU A BLOT
IT MAY SEEM TO YOU AN INTERESTING PLOT
BUT IT WILL EVENTUALLY TURN FLOP

YOU WILL END UP TO BE OUT OF PAGE
LEAVING YOUR NO TRACE
YOU WILL BE STUCK IN A MAZE
WHICH TO CONTRADICT WOULD MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE AN ANIMAL IN A CAGE

EMOTIONS, LOVE FOR FAMILY MAY OVERPOWER YOUR DESIRES 

BUT IT'S ALWAYS THAT FAMILY COMES PRIOR
IT MAY NOT TURN OUT TO BE FOR YOU A SAPPHIRE
IT'S MAY NOT WHAT YOU ALWAYS ASPIRE

UNDER SUCH DIRE SITUATIONS
YOU JUST NEED TO TRUST YOURSELF AS A GOD'S CREATION

YOU DON'T NEED ANY PREPARATIONS

YOU JUST NEED TO PROJECT YOURSELF AS A PRESENTATION

YOU DON'T NEED TO GIVE ANY VINDICATION
IN THIS CUTTHROAT COMPETITION

IT IS WAY BEYOND A SIMPLE CALCULATION
BECAUSE ITS THE HEART NOT THE MIND THAT EVERYTIME GIVES NOTIFICATION

YOU CAN SCUTTLE AS LONG AS YOU WANT
UNTIL YOU REALISE IT'S NOT WHAT YOU SOUGHT FOR ALL THAT LONG

IT MAY HAVE WORSENED YOU UP
THRASHED AND THROTTLED YOU LIKE A LITTLE PUP

IT'S FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL THAT YOU HAVE GONE THIS FAR
STILL FOCUSSED TO REACH THE STAR
DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW CAN SOMEONE CARRY ON BOTH
BACK AND FORTH
