Sink Or Swim
Rising Strong: Navigating Life's Challenges with Justin Saladino Band
Lyrics
We're gonna work it out
We're determined to find a solution to our challenges.
There's gotta be someway
There must be a way to overcome our difficulties.
We've come too far and fought to hard
We've come a long way and fought hard, so it's not acceptable for everything to end negatively.
For it all to end this way
The journey so far shouldn't conclude in failure.
I'm no good at being on the losing side
I don't handle being on the losing side well.
And this is so much more than a game
This situation is more significant than a mere game.
When it's live or die
It's a critical moment where the outcome is a matter of life or death.
It don't matter how or why
The specific details of how or why don't matter.
It's fight or fly away
We have to either fight through it or escape.
We either sink or swim
The situation boils down to either succeeding or failing.
I'm out on a limb
I'm taking a risk or facing a difficult situation.
It's either sink or swim
Success or failure is the only option.
That's that shape I'm in
This is the state or condition I find myself in.
Back against the wall
We are in a challenging position with limited options.
When it's all or nothing at all
It's a moment of high stakes, with everything on the line.
Won't you come with me
Join me, and together we'll overcome this.
We're going to make it through this together
Together, we will endure and surpass the challenges.
I don't want to live with regret
I don't want to carry the burden of regret in the future.
Cause there'll be no way to pretend
There won't be any room for pretending when faced with the reality of the situation.
When it's live or die it don't matter how or why
Similar to line 7 - Life or death, the specifics are irrelevant; it's about facing the challenge or escaping.
It's fight or fly away
We must confront the situation or find a way to escape.
It's either sink or swim
Success or failure is the only option.
I'm out on a limb
I'm taking a risk or facing a difficult situation.
It's either sink or swim
Success or failure is the only option.
That's the shape I'm in
This is the state or condition I find myself in.
I'm gonna see your call
I will witness your decisions or actions.
Be there to watch you fall
I'll be there to witness your potential failure.
We've got everything to lose
We have a lot to lose, and I'm committed to proving our worth.
And I'll do all it takes to prove it to you
I will do whatever it takes to demonstrate our commitment and value.
We either sink or swim
Success or failure is the only option.
I'm out on a limb
I'm taking a risk or facing a difficult situation.
It's either sink or swim
Success or failure is the only option.
That's the shape I'm in
This is the state or condition I find myself in.
