when everything has gone to shit, i push myself but i can’t commit
when it can’t get any worse, life reminds you just how much it hurts
the pain of being alive, the uncertainty you hold deep inside
will i survive another day or will the voices in my head finally make me cave
endless days, my minds in knots
sense of purpose has all been gone
uncertainty, this violent haze
blurring lines whats wrong with me
never ending grief, on repeat in a world so dark it’s getting hard to see
troubled thoughts, i can’t take it, pray for serenity i hope that i make it
these scars will stay as my hatred grows i’ve yet to see any change
that’s just the way it goes, so hard to see a future that i don’t know
life won’t let go
hard to cope
i won’t be broke down
the walls around me, their closing quick
can’t let this world, tighten its grip
searching myself, and all i know to stop the pain but
life won’t let go
Wonderful dramatic opening, the voice of a black woman in all her honesty, vulnerability and openess. And then one of the fiercest tracks of Zulu, total hardcore: 'Now they are through with me', full of twists and turns, and suddenly ending in a kind of soul-track, brilliant! This is 21st century music at it's best. The end lecture is dramatic and disturbing, spoken again by a black woman. Makes you think. Hesperus
