A song I wrote.
Nora Elrayes 1986 (Illinois)
(Verse 1)
In the depths of my mind, storms always brew,
Depression creepin' in, trying to tear me in two,
But I refuse to succumb, I won't let it control,
Gonna rise above, find the strength to take a hold.
(Pre-Chorus)
Depression's a battle, I fight day and night,
But I won't let it define me, I'll put up a fight,
Gotta find my voice, break these chains and be free,
To let the world know, depression won't conquer me.
(Chorus)
Depression's a war, but I won't bow down,
I'll stand tall, break through this dark cloud,
I'll find the light, ignite my true soul,
No more silence, depression's gotta go.
(Verse 2)
I've shed countless tears, felt trapped in my own mind,
But I'll wear my scars, like a badge, let 'em shine,
Depression's a journey, but I won't be defeated,
Gonna rise above, find the strength to be needed.
(Pre-Chorus)
Depression's a battle, I fight day and night,
But I won't let it define me, I'll put up a fight,
Gotta find my voice, break these chains and be free,
To let the world know, depression won't conquer me.
(Chorus)
Depression's a war, but I won't bow down,
I'll stand tall, break through this dark cloud,
I'll find the light, ignite my true soul,
No more silence, depression's gotta go.
(Bridge)
To all those struggling, feeling lost and alone,
Know that you're not, we're in this together, we've grown,
Hold on to hope, don't let go of the fight,
We'll rise as warriors, soaring high, taking flight.
(Verse 3)
In the midst of this chaos, I find my peace,
Through music and expression, my soul's released,
I'll channel my pain into words that heal,
For anyone who's struggling, I want them to feel.
(Pre-Chorus)
Depression's a battle, we fight day and night,
But we won't let it define us, we'll put up a fight,
Gotta find our voices, break these chains and be free,
To let the world know, depression won't conquer me.
(Chorus)
Depression's a war, but we won't bow down,
We'll stand tall, break through this dark cloud,
We'll find the light, ignite our true souls,
No more silence, depression's gotta go.
(Outro)
So let's fight together, hand in hand,
Spread love and kindness, across the land,
We'll bring awareness, break down the stigma,
Depression won't control us, we stand taller and bigger.
