Battle!
Mario & Luigi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Knocking you on your ass
Didn't see that coming
Now I'm all depressed
Control the will to not fall apart
We've got to get thru this day
Doesn't leave you much choice now
But to run and hide away
You've got to battle it out
You've got to see it thru
You'll overcome the dark
You know you always do
You'll make it back to shore
You've come this far before
Day two and it's only getting heavier
Still feelin' alone in the world
Spinning the wheels of isolation
Blaming yourself again
Tunnel vision negativity
You cannot see the light
You can reach for the exit
But can't get up to your feet
You've got to battle it out
You've got to see it thru
You'll overcome the dark
You know you always do
You'll make it back to shore
You've come this far before
Waking up on level ground
Now things don't seem so bad
Felt like a different world
A world so far from you
Wondering how you even got there
Given your current mood
On a different plane now
Feeling on top of the world
It's ok to talk to me
And It's ok to vent
Better off with you here
Then a world without you there
This song is as much for you, as it is for me
But for everyone who battles the heaviness
You've got to battle it out
You've got to see it thru
You'll overcome the dark
You know you always do
You'll make it back to shore
You've come this far before
You've got to battle it out
You've got to see it thru
You'll overcome the dark
You know you always do
You'll make it back to shore
You've come this far before

This reminded me of some classic RPG parody movies of YouTube old, but with incredibly smooth animation/overall quality and great music. You made the right choice for the watermark.
