"Death of Me" is about getting out of my own way. Growing through my mistakes. Breaking those generational chains that have kept me bound most of my life.
lyrics
Death of Me
(A. Stanton, S. Rodger)
[Verse 1]
Looking back on the things I’ve learned
The people I’ve loved and the ones I’ve burned
Too many times made a few wrong turns
I didn’t know the power of my own words
I was too quick to speak
Wouldn’t let anyone in to rescue me
I was too blind to see
The truth that would set me free
[Pre-Chorus]
Pride pushes away the ones you love the most
Time stuck on delay you’re not the Holy Ghost
Tried walking on water, failed, and learned to float
And/but now I know
[Chorus]
Life won’t wait for us
Don’t listen to the lies we’re made for love
Even when you got a heavy soul
There’s freedom in the pain of letting go
The victory is all I need
I won’t be the death of me, no
[Verse 2]
I was low now my head held high
Made it through the dark Now I shine that light
I saw a sign, opened up my eyes
Never again will the well run dry
Lookin forward to a new day
I got God on my side in a new way
You say
I got baggage like a suitcase
But I learned to live with it like a roommate
[Chorus]
Life won’t wait for us
Don’t listen to the lies we’re made for love
Even when you got a heavy soul
There’s freedom in the pain of letting go
The victory is all I need
I won’t be the death of me, no
[Bridge]
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
Won’t be the death of me
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
That love is all I need
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
Won’t be the death of me
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
That love will set you free
[Chorus]
Life won’t wait for us
Don’t listen to the lies we’re made for love
Even when you got a heavy soul
There’s freedom in the pain of letting go
The victory is all I need
I won’t be the death of me, no
