Matt wrote this song about his experience with chronic pain and using sound for healing. *LYRICS BELOW* about his “rough chapter,” but also about his realization that his “story’s not over.” In this song, he makes the decision to start “writing [his] own life.”
——————————————————————————————————————–
I’m walking down this old road
My friends passing me to and fro
Don’t wait up
Keep my eyes lookin straight
Trying to avoid the crowds of Broken dreams, killing me
And up ahead I see my fate
But I worry I’ll be too late
This monster of mine holding my line
holding me back I find momentum but I fall flat
Find the monster at my back
Claws in deeper I’ve tried to fight and tried to run
But he’s always two steps along
Stopping me from the life I wanna lead
I’ve been broken I’ve been beat
But it’s time I get back on my feet
Naw you can’t hold me can’t slow me down
*It might seem I’m on the ground
But I swear I won’t be kept down
You know I’ll be back up for the rebound
Imma fight imma fight with this mending sound*
There comes a time when you can’t wait
Yeah me and pain we’ve got a date
Show it I can give as well as take
True it was a rough chapter
But the story’s not over
Yeah I’ve made up my mind I’m writing my own life
Yeah I feel liberated, validated like my parking pass
Start my engine Imma hit the road fast
*Chorus*
Bridge – I’m alive
*It might seem I’m on the ground
But I swear I won’t be kept down
You know I’ll be back up for the rebound
Imma fight imma fight
Imma fight for me
Imma fight imma fight imma fight for me
Imma fight imma fight imma fight with this mending sound*
