I Refuse, by LostSoul Subscribe to rss feed for LostSoul

I remember as a little kid
Growing up with no parents 
Doing the things I did

Getting into so much trouble
No one even knows 
How much it took a toll
On my soul
To not have anyone around
Or be found

But sometimes life 
That's just the way it goes
I'm not dwelling 
I'm just going with the flow
And maybe who knows
This life can turn around
Cause I'm not bound
To limitations of sounds
Of screams telling me
To come back around

I grew up in a bad part of town
But it made me stronger
Prouder and can stay longer
In any fight
Cause I can be on my own
I'm used to being alone

I'll always keep my head up high
No matter how much trouble resides
Deep inside
Cause no matter what
The only person I can trust
Resides in me
And I know that eternally

I'm tired of being used
And abused
So I'm taking care of me
For once
I'm taking a chance
With myself
Taking risks 
Only I can lose
But this I choose

Just like everything else in life
I refuse
I won't accuse
Everything that happens
Happens for a reason
And if I fail 
Then I fail 
At least I choose
The way I wanna live or die
