Overcome - The Unity Of Us

I was told that the dream I had would never last
Told countless times that I had no chance, so I
Never fought for what I ought to.
I always thought,I had no strength enough. Now I…
…do, and I tell you, go fight for what you want,
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise or you might just meet your demise.
Through the ups and the downs, through the highs and the lows
To prevail is to hold on and not let go
so me telling it now and today
thats is the reason why I pray-
and you keep me in my powerfull way
showing it to them - when trying bring me down again

Chorus:
Going against the grain is the only way I know
I will never let myself down
This is how I’m going to show the world
I will never drown

VERSE 2
Yes, this I promise you and everyone
Going on and on, there’s so much I have done
All i had ever seen was just sorrow
But i’m no more caught in the undertow
@NickGr

Now I’ve finally risen from my grave
Looking forward to the sunrise of a new day
And when I’ll see the light I’ll have to go
To the new places that I’ve never known

@acemasters

nope Ace? @acemaster, looooooooool :joy: may I take the HONOUR to remind ya on ya lines?
:hugging: just a joke man… get me

I was told that the dream I had would never last
Told countless times that I had no chance, so I Never fought for what I ought to.
I always thought, I had no strength enough.
Now I Do, and I tell you, go fight for what you wan
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise or you might just meet your demise.
Through the ups and the downs, through the highs and the lows
To prevail is to hold on and not let go

So me telling it now and today
thats is the reason why I pray
and you keep me in my powerfull way
showing it to them - when trying bring me down again

Going against the grain is the only way I know
I will never let myself down
This is how I’m going to show the world
I will never drown

(Chorus)
Going against the grain is the only way I know
I will never let myself down
This is how I’m going to show the world
I will never drown
(My lines to join onto chorus 1)
I can swim against the toughest tides
Climb the highest mountine
Even though they said I couldn’t do it
I played that down and defied it

Final Build up
When they had told me no

I think the whole quote option on this forum has gone bonkers. Until they fix that, if they ever do, perhaps it is best for now on to just copy the text and paste it in the post. Then it won’t make the text look like 1 big mess :stuck_out_tongue:

I agree

I don’t do the whole quoting thing i find it easier t just copy and paste the whole thing anyway lol

How do you think I did it? :stuck_out_tongue: I looked for the most complete version of the song and added the extra lines after I C&P’d it.

That’s how I’ve been doing it too :wink:

still again, why not setting it on wiki? then we all can add as much as we like in only one post?!
