Liberation

about

The last song that was written for the record. Originally I had booked a studio session to record another song, but on the night before, I was strumming on the guitar and I just felt that I needed to write this song. I recorded basic structures of the song on my phone and The lyrics came pouring out of me due to many personal events that took place around that time. The next day I went to the studio and recorded this song. So no demo, just feeling it in the studio. Very spontaneous. Also it is one of the few songs I’ve written that end with a positive note.

lyrics

A fleeting glance, at the dawn of the year
A circumstance, sprung from fear
Life crashes, in front of my eyes
Life clashes, innocence dies

They have tried to break me
They have tried to tear me apart
They have tried to kill me
They have tried break my heart
They have tried and failed

Dampened skin, with swollen misty eyes
I hold her close, she silently cries
Her hopes are gone, they slipped slip away
She rises up, I see her smile decay

They have tried to break her
They have tried to tear her apart
They have tried to kill her
They have tried break her heart
They have tried and failed

With a prayer and the will to survive
With will power, the dream is revived
With this foundation, we can clearly see
With this liberation, we become free

They won’t win and break us
They won’t win and tear us apart
They can’t win and kill us
They won’t win and break our heart
They can’t win, They’ve failed
