One Too Many Blows To The Head
Resilience Amidst Adversity: Fighting On
Lyrics
I don't want to get back into the ring
I am reluctant to re-enter a challenging situation.
But I feel like these gloves are glued to knuckles
Despite my reluctance, I feel compelled to confront difficulties.
And every time, and every time I try to stand up for myself, yea yea
Whenever I attempt self-assertion, I experience vulnerability.
I start to feel, I feel my knees start to buckle, buckle, yeah yeahhhhhhhh
My strength falters, and I sense physical weakness.
One too many blows to the head
The accumulation of traumatic experiences has taken a toll on me.
Left me for dead, but still I fight on
Despite being left in a weakened state, I continue to persevere.
