Against The World
Flame feat. V.Rose Lyrics

Turn it down a little bit (You and me against the world)
Let's ignore the noise around us and focus on our relationship, which is all that we have against the world

I don't wanna hinder it
I want to do everything I can to support this relationship

It's gonna be me and him against the world (You and me against the world)
It's not just us two, but it's also us with God against the world

'Cause it's you and me against the world, the world, the world
Our love and bond is not just against a physical world, but also against all the negativity, opinions, and pressure around us

They ask me, "do you love me enough that you would really give up the world?"
People question if our love is worth giving up everything else for, but we know that it is

It's been too long, I
Our relationship has been struggling for a while

Can't live 'dis life no mo'
I can no longer continue living this way

With' all o' yo' lies, I
Your lies have hurt me and our trust has been broken

Can't run from right no mo'
I can no longer avoid doing what is right even if it's hard

He took on flesh for me
Jesus came to earth and sacrificed himself for me

All you took was my joy
You took away my happiness and caused me pain

He played his role perfectly
Jesus fulfilled his purpose perfectly and saved me

You played me like a toy
You manipulated and used me for your own benefit

I'm so done with' you
I have had enough of this relationship

I got my bags packed
I am ready to leave and move on

I'm burnin' my bridges
I am cutting off all ties and connections to prevent you from controlling me again

'Case you try ta drag me back
I know that you may try to convince me to stay, but I won't let you

Someone got me loose
Somebody helped me break free from this toxic relationship

Here, you can have your noose
I am giving you back the control and manipulation that you used on me

You're like a brown recluse
You are a dangerous and venomous person to me

I'm chuckin' up tha deuce, through
I am saying goodbye and moving forward

They told me it wouldn't last
People doubted our relationship and said it wouldn't work out

They said it would never work
People didn't think that our love could survive the hardships and challenges

They told me this love would pass
People assumed that our affection towards each other would fade away eventually

But it's you and me against the world
Despite what others said, we were fighting for our love together

They told me to leave you now
People advised me to break up with you because you were only causing me pain

You're only with him 'cause you're hurt
People believed that you were only seeking comfort from someone else because of your own insecurities

But I'm gonna stand my ground
I will not let others dictate what I do or feel

'Cause it's you and me against the world, the world, the world
Despite what others say or think, we will do whatever it takes to protect our love and our bond

I did the stupidest things for you
I made foolish decisions and actions because of my love for you

All in the name of staying true
I convinced myself that I was being loyal and devoted when in fact, I was only hurting myself

Embarrassing myself, had me actin' like a fool, and
I put myself in embarrassing and foolish situations just to prove my love for you

What did I get in return, and
I didn't receive anything in exchange for my sacrifices or efforts

What did I get in exchange
I didn't get anything beneficial or positive out of this relationship

Besides, teary eyes, broken hearts and lots of pain
All I got from this relationship were negative and painful experiences that left me with sadness and hurt

Tried to hold on to what we had
I tried to keep our relationship from falling apart

But, it was never real, and
Our love was never genuine and honest

The one who loved me the most, man
Jesus loved me unconditionally and sacrificed everything for me

I helped him get killed, man
My sins and mistakes contributed to Jesus' death

Messin' around with' you, left
Being in this relationship caused

Millions of regrets, yet
I regret everything and wish I could turn back time

The love that I rejected
I neglected and ignored the love of Jesus

Eventually resurrects
But I have hope that my faith in Jesus can bring new life and redemption

See, although I played (I'm?)
Even though I made mistakes and sinned

(Lately?) Betrayed (I'm?)
Even though I felt like I betrayed my faith at times

See that guy right there
Looking at Jesus

I'm gonna save 'I'm
I believe that I can be saved and redeemed through my faith in Jesus

That's exactly what He did
Jesus saved us from our sins and offered us a new life

After the perfect life was lived
Jesus lived a sinless and perfect life for us

Crucified, he would rise
Jesus died on the cross and resurrected on the third day

Now, I'm one of His kids
Through my faith in Jesus, I am now a child of God
