RAYE I Will Overcome.

I'll overcome (She will, she will, she will, ooh) I'll overcome (Yes, indeed, yes, indeed, yes, indeed, she will) There's a thin grey veil over her horizon The wall between hope and despair She exists behind it She will overcome Five hundred steps left to make it to the front door My red high heels click, click, four many too drinks I feel my backbone Threaten to greet the concrete below I mean, who wants to bе in Paris drunk and alone? Where thе phantom of a past love lingers in the cracks of The cobblestones that I march on and it haunts me, and it taunts me And su-su-su-suddenly in a reflection of a Chanel boutique window I can see the old me and I hate her I feel syrup strands of blue moonlight pour through the clouds To find me out like a spotlight, as if Heaven's watching down To illustrate briefly the state of my mind I have black cat-eye glasses, so I look chic as I cry And it's funny, some people say I remind them of Amy Some spit through their keyboards, I'll never amount And the evil in insults, the arrows from your tongue Is the same devils you tortured her with Anyhow, I I'll overcome (She will, she will, she will) I'll overcome (Yes, indeed, yes, indeed, yes, indeed) When this wicked world wants to whisper "You cannot, you won't be, you will not So go home and shut up, and go sleep" This is a song to remind me, since I needed one I will overcome There's a thin grey veil over her horizon The wall between hope and despair (Yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will) She exists behind it She will overcome Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, I will, oh Five hundred steps back and I was doing so well (So well) Whilst scrolling, I sighed (I'm so jealous) Of everyone online who is so much happier And content and complete (To feel better, I shall arrange a sad little feast) Where I will jump up and down on my bed in my grief And I'll play Edith Piaf, and I'll dance and I'll Eat chocolate cake and I'll have no regrets till I Wake up and hate me now, I must know, anyhow I will keep on I'll overcome (She will, she will, she will) I'll overcome (Yes, indeed, yes, indeed, yes, indeed) When this wicked world wants to whisper "You cannot, you won't be, you will not So go home and shut up, and go sleep" This is a song to remind me, since I needed one Five hundred steps left, maybe I have lost count My battery died, so I'm not sure if I turn left or turn right As my eyes gathered tears, it's as if it was staged How all the night skies above start to thunder and rain Like a Hollywood movie with some sad exceptions No lover to kiss, or promised happy endings I'll swing 'round this street lamp and I'll give you a story You may say I look crazy, but I won't even care Aren't we all broken people? Just perfect how to hide it And life's guarantee's that we're all going to die So am I going to live like this all of my life? I'm not okay right now But I'll get there somehow, I I'll overcome, I-I-I, I-I I'll overcome (She will, she will) When this wicked world wants to whisper "You cannot, you won't be, you will not So go home and shut up, and go sleep" This is my song to remind me, I needed one I will overcome, oh, oh, oh There's a thin grey veil over her horizon And it is the wall between hope and despair She exists behind it, she will overcome
