Power
Ruben Lyrics

This little voice is a moaner
There is a voice inside the songwriter's head that is constantly complaining and causing distress.

Weighs on my head like a boulder
The voice is so heavy and burdensome that it feels like a huge rock resting on the songwriter's head.

And it's wearing down on my shoulders, eh
The constant presence of the voice is causing the songwriter to feel tired and weighed down.

I'm up to here with emotions
The songwriter is overwhelmed by their emotions and is struggling to cope.

I'm growing tired and older
The constant presence of the voice is making the songwriter feel fatigued and is aging them prematurely.

I've tried to keep my composure, but
The songwriter has made an attempt to stay calm and in control, but has been unsuccessful.

It has that power over me
The little voice has an immense hold over the songwriter and is controlling their thoughts and feelings.

Crawling up my throat and makes it hard to breathe, oh
The voice is so strong that it feels like it is physically crawling up their throat and restricting their ability to breathe.

Scared it's here to stay and is never gonna leave
The songwriter is worried that the voice will never go away and they will be trapped with it forever.

That power, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
The control the little voice has over the songwriter is so potent that it is overwhelming.

Makes it hard to breathe
The pressure from the little voice is so great that it is literally hindering the songwriter's ability to breathe.

Power, power, power
The little voice's control and hold is so strong that it can only be described as a source of immense power.

This little voice is a liar
The songwriter believes that the voice is not telling the truth and is deceiving them in some way.

And I'm tangled up in his wires
The little voice's control is so strong that the songwriter feels entangled in its grasp.

It's getting tighter and tighter, yeah
The control the little voice has is increasing and suffocating the songwriter more and more.

I'm in the line of the fire
The songwriter is caught in the crosshairs of the little voice's constant barrage of complaints and negativity.

Ain't got no armor to fight it
The songwriter doesn't have anything to protect themselves from the little voice's attacks and influence.

I've tried my best but I'm tired, yeah
The songwriter has made an effort to overcome the little voice's hold, but they are exhausted and running out of strength.

And I hate it
The songwriter is filled with a sense of loathing and disgust towards the little voice and its influence over them.

Down a lane that's losing track
The songwriter feels like they are losing their way and direction due to the little voice's constant influence and negativity.

But I'm patient
Despite their exhaustion and frustration, the songwriter is willing to wait and persist until they can overcome the little voice's hold.

Oh-oh I'm patient
The songwriter is emphasizing their patience and determination to overcome the little voice's control.

Til it all comes running back
The songwriter is hopeful that one day all the positive aspects of their life will return to them once they are free of the little voice's hold.

That power
The immense strength and influence of the little voice.

Never gonna leave
The songwriter believes that the little voice will always be a part of their life, even though they hope to overcome it.
