Fight
Project Vela Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Living in your own shattered dreams that nobody sees,
I can't shake the irony of moving on to better things.
You know what it brings.
Does he answer violently?
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
Don't be afraid to break away and fight to breathe another day.
Don't be afraid to break away and fight to breathe another day.
Pulling back the shroud to reveal things time couldn't heal,
You can show your scars to me.
Let me take you up to a place where we can erase all this negativity.
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
(You gotta fight)
Don't be afraid to break away and fight to breathe another day.
Don't be afraid to break away and fight to breathe another day.
Living under all the pressure. Break me down, I cannot let you.
Living under all the pressure. Break me down, I cannot let you.
Living under all the pressure. Break me down, I cannot let you.
Living under all the pressure. Break me down, I cannot let you.




Don't be afraid to break away and fight to breathe another day.
Don't be afraid to break away and fight to breathe another day.

I cannot get over how amazing EVER SINGLE SONG is. It's like you guys are incapable of making anything less than phenomenal. You're all MIND BLOWINGLY talented. This is so uplifting, i love it!

@ProjectVela

I can't believe I didn't see all your comments until just now! You are too too kind. I'm so glad our paths crossed, and that you can relate to the music so much. Thank you for being a fan🧡🧡

@ScamwatchDallin

You guys have a really nice sound, I like it! If I may make a suggestion, it might be better to have the vocals go a little more over the instrumental. The reason I think bands like Starset and The Plague grow so quickly with their sound is that their vocals are powerful and memorable, which mixes very well with the sci-fi aspect. I think you guys can totally pull it off. I will totally keep a close eye on you guys! Can't wait to see more.
