Lyrics
[Intro]
(Instrumental)
[Verse 1]
Every step I take, it feels like a fight,
Going left when the world says right,
I'm walking alone in the pouring rain,
While everyone else is dry in their lanes.
[Pre-Chorus]
They say life's a dance, but I miss the beat,
Climbing uphill, my own two feet,
Why does it seem like the world conspires,
To test my strength, to feed my fires?
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-oooh-ooooh, why's it gotta be this way?
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-oooh-ooooh, will I ever find my way?
[Chorus]
Against the tide, I'm swimming alone,
Feeling the friction in every bone,
Why is it hard, why can't it be,
Easy for once, like it is for them, not me?
[Verse 2]
The harder I push, the more I slide back,
Chasing dreams on a one-way track,
They seem to glide, while I stumble and fall,
Every time I rise, I hit another wall.
[Pre-Chorus]
They say life's a game, did I miss the rules?,
Playing my part, but feeling like a fool,
Why does it seem like I'm always in the way,
To catch a break, no-no no-no, not today!
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-oooh-ooooh, why's it gotta be this way?
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-oooh-ooooh, will I ever find my way?
[Chorus]
Against the tide, I'm swimming alone,
Feeling the friction in every bone,
Why is it hard, why can't it be,
Easy for once, like it is for them, not me?
[Bridge]
Anyone out there who feels the same?
Fighting a battle, living in pain,
Reach out your hand, let's face it together,
We'll find our way through stormy weather.
[Chorus]
Against the tide, we're swimming alone,
Feeling the friction in every bone,
Why is it hard, why can't it be,
Easy for once, like it is for them, not me?
[Outro]
But I'll keep fighting, I won't give in,
I'll find my strength, I'll find my win,
Against the tide, I’ll learn to fly,
With every struggle, reaching for the sky.
