Hard Way Out
Simai Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I might fall into darkness, but I won't and I won't, die in vain.
Die in vain, die in vain.

People say that I gotta be walking tall,
but I feel like I'm on the edge and I'm about to fall.
And it seems like giving up is my only option,
but as long as I breathe I'll never choose the easy way out.
I'll stop them, dark thoughts from devouring me.

I don't need no drugs, I need to find the key to access
the strength that I know that I have inside.
I won't surrrender my life, I won't give up without a fight.

I might fall into darkness, but I won't and I won't, die in vain.
Die in vain, die in vain.

I'll fight.
I'll... Dance to the beat of the sniper, I gotta go hyper.
I'll take a breathe as big as a pipers, I'll strangle the viper.
And I'll pick myself up everytime I fall,
I'll find a way even if it's no way out and my back is against the wall.

I'll pick myself up, pick myself up again.
I won't die in vain.

I might fall.
I won't die in vain.

I'll pick myself up, pick myself up again.
I won't die in vain.
