Description
A personal reflection of being at a crossroads and passing up the safe, smooth path to follow my passion and embark on a rough and sometimes unforgiving journey, pursuing a musical career over a more traditional vocation - something that everyone can relate to at different times in our lives
Lyrics
My back to the wall, my face to the grindstone I cant even say what I mean Which way is up and whats down, chaos abound doesn't really matter to me verse 1: It took just 5 days, 5 days, my life came around full circle A blessing that was sent from above I finally found me some love, a person to trust, but she was just the subject of lust So now I’m crazy, crazy, somebody come and save me Save me from the fate I deserve I feel the weight of the world, caught in a whirl My life is spinning out of control But now I’m vibing, vibing, guess I’mma gon keep trying searching for the balance I need, And now I cant believe, I got the disease I’m searching for the rest of my days, my backs to the wall chorus: My back to the wall, my face to the grindstone I cant even say what I mean Which way is up and whats down, chaos abound doesn't really matter to me My back to the wall, my face to the grindstone I cant even say what I mean Which way is up and whats down, chaos abound doesn't really matter to me verse 2: I’m losing patience, patience, I dont wanna be complacent I need to decide what to do, but now there's something to prove aint that the truth, I’m wondering if I'll make it through And now I’m wishing, wishing, this thing ended different, I hope I dont start missing your face, something I can't replace I'll never erase, I hope I didn't make a mistake, bridge: And I want your body, I remember the things you used to say to me, girl and I wanna know, and I wanna find, I gotta pull myself together and make this clear chorus: My back to the wall, my face to the grindstone I cant even say what I mean Which way is up and whats down, chaos abound doesn't really matter to me
