In the Raw (this is new)
Long ago I decided not to let the chains that bind me to the earth win
I won't take no for an answer and and I won't settle for anything less than spectacular
I want to get back the life I used to live, get back to a time when I wasn't blinded by the pain
Break through to the other side of misery, put this world in my rear view mirrors
Bring it all back to me: life, love...happiness give me back my smile, wipe away these tears
Shatter these walls and take back the sky give me back what's mine
I used to want to dream, but now I just want to live
Give me a heart that beats, eyes that see, a voice that speaks, legs that stand and feet that walk
I am coming back to life with each passing moment it comes back to me
I feel it's warmth slowly melt away all the pain of yesterday
I feel it deep inside my bones, and inside my chest it swells as breath suddenly returns
I see the stars, they fade away as I regain my strength
My heart it finally beats, my eyes they finally see, I found my legs to stand on
Picking myself back up again learning how to crawl again, and trying too soon to walk
I might stumble, I might miss a step but I won't give in
I won't give the it a backward glance, the chance that I might lose sight again
Of the truth that I long forgot was true

My favorite is the "Give me a heart that beats" line. Thoughtful and inspirational, Alejandro.
Thank you!! I am glad you liked this one. I usually write more or less love related things being a young man and not sure what that is and all. But I like this because I was really feeling more like myself than anything haha if that makes any sense
