Songtexte Can't Back Down - ANNA , Raine Wilder

Have you ever had
Something you wanted so bad
You would drop anything to grab it?
Just to have it, and to hold it
Feel like an addict stuck with a habit
Can't control it
But you're not dope sick
You're feeling home sick
So many holes in your soul
Close to exploding
I've seen too many people
Playing with a needle and lose
My needles only play me music
And give me tattoos
Maybe that's the only reason
That you're playing my tunes
Because I never tried the demons
That they used to consume
It's not too late for you to make a choice
And choose not to loose
Pay attention to that inner voice
And tighten your shoes
And get your ass on the track and run with it
Like they're back on the attack
But cant crack your commitment
Like the gates close
If you don't escape prison, in one minute
Turn around and tell the world you did it
Go get it

Keep on going, you just gotta fight it
Keep on going cuz it's not too late
You can't back down, you can't back down
Keep on going, you just gotta fight it
Keep on going cuz it's never too late
You can't back down, you can't back down

You can't back down
There's no tearing your spirit
You're hearing cheers near the finish
Almost the winner now
They're throwing tricks out
To push it against ya
Get used to the pressure
Let loose and let the rage out
Cuz soon they fade out
Never remembered
Followed the foot prints of every contender
That waved the white towel
They gave in
I'm glad I built a stable foundation
To keep me safe in case I cave in
In case the walls fall
All to the center, just you remember
Every man is sinner, we all fall short
We all do wrong
We all regret, never the less
It's still a step in the same test
Of the same journey
We're all in
No one gets out alive
So go do what your love is
Even if it doesn't pay you a cent
Can't take it with you
On the day that you're dead
You can't back down

To every body that's ever had their heart ripped out
And got to witness it still beat before they passed out
To all the men who wonder why their wife broke a vow
And all the women who wonder why he ain't stuck around
To all the people determined to break the bad cycle
Of evil fathers who beat their child or drink like psychos
To every body who's kicked down and stomped on
And repeatedly beaten just like a skipping song
Listen to that noise
In the back of your head
Warning you to move fast
Or else wind up dead
That's when they wind up
That's when they throw the pitch
Thats when they knock it out the park
Like Babe Ruth did
Cuz You're a champion, you're victorious
You do what can't be done
They wonder what your story is
Of that special spirit
Who always stayed determined
There ain't no certain sex or race It's inside every person
