about

A song about the hectic times we are in. But no matter what, we can't drown in our sorrows. We must swim, we must fight, we must be strong <3 #BLACKLIVESMATTER

lyrics

I know the world’s on fire
I see the soot across your cheek
I know it’s getting harder
To keep walking down these streets
I know your soul is bothered
As you watch behind a screen
I know your sick martyrs
Always appearing every week

Now I’m drowning within
These tears gettin’ harder, harder to swim thru

I feel lost at sea
In the eye of a perfect storm
Stuck In the belly of the beast
And I got no sword
Sometimes I wish that I could fly
Fly away from here
If I could I would
But i don’t want to leave my peers behind

Now i’m drowning within
These tears gettin’ harder, harder to swim thru

Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim

Just cause times get hard don’t mean you sink, you swim
Dust yourself off, realize you have strength within
Just cause times get hard don’t mean you sink, you swim
Dust yourself off, realize you have strength within
Just cause times get hard don’t mean you sink, you swim
Dust yourself off, realize you have strength within

Now i’m swimming again
My tears are no longer, harder to swim thru
Now i’m swimming again
My tears are no longer, harder to swim thru

Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
Swim, swim
