Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
You know some days I like me
Some days I don't
Some days I try with passion
Sometimes I won't
I might just hold my guard up
And lock my heart up tight
But it's the door that's open
Letting in the light
There's a battle raging
Inside of me
It's a holy struggle
And it won't let go of me
No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right
I used to sit and ponder
If I'd be fine
If Jesus lived His own life
And I lived mine
But love is such a magnet
It pulled me night and day
Until my needy heart
Just couldn't stay away
Life can drive you crazy
Or just about
But even when it's most frustrating
This kid's not walking out
No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
Sure it's tough but I won't deny it
No no no
I don't want to waste my life hiding
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right
I've made up my mind now
I don't want to lose out now (unguarded)
Beginning to see now
What the fight is about (unguarded heart)
I gotta stay open
Keep defenses all down (unguarded)
Don't want to be hiding
When the love comes round
No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right
No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
Sure it's tough but I won't deny it
No no no
I don't want to waste my life hiding
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right
