a thousand cuts lyrics
[ruby ibarra]
if i fall i stand up, break these walls i rise up
even when i lose it all, i always got my eyes up
they prayin’ on my downfall but i’ll never give up
a thousand cuts won’t be enough to keep my fists in these cuffs

and i’m never breaking down with the odds against me
brown girl gold brown with the gods within me
yeah! i was the flower that bloomed in a dark room
flows like monsoons from the womb when i write
move ruins and resume i grew ’till i soon
prayed to many moons that my wounds would not bloom
where we from, death looms so we hum you this tunеs
and hope it sparks light like a night in mid june
my hеarts consumed by hate here
it’s harden when you live fear
how can you see clear when you don’t see you in the mirror, ugh
i lost too many peers, they seem to disappear
but they livin’ through these words that i’m paintin’ here

pre chorus:
tell me you remember me
i’m here to build a legacy
i got the ground movin’ under me
a thousand cuts ain’t never stoppin’ me
and i swear i’m never givin’ up
who i am or who i’m standing up
and i never need an ounce of luck
to understand myself cause that’s enough
yeah that’s enough
chorus:
[+ann one+, ruby ibarra]
+yeah, i can live a thousand cuts+
i can live a thousand cuts
+yeah, i can live a thousand cuts+
than live a life just coverin’ up
ugh, what would you die for?
what do you live for?
when it’s resistance met with uproar
i’m trying to love more ,we’ve had enough war
too many stones and these hands are guns down
they try to pressure me, pressed me ’till i stumble down
but not this time i go zero to a hundred now
they’ll never silence me, my voice won’t be denied
and i’m challenging the system, no, it won’t be televised
and i’ll never compromise, cause i’m writing to survive
when the freedom ain’t free and so let’s keep the hope alive
yeah, i see it in me form the claras to makilings
from the martyrs to the artists and the writer breakin’ ceilings
it’s life in these times with lives on front lines
a test to these times, so we question these minds
and if i ever bite my tongue that’ll be the death of
everything i stand for, no i won’t be any less

and p.s. tell me you’ll remember me
i’m here to build a legacy
i got the ground movin’ under me
a thousand cuts ain’t never stoppin’ me
and i swear i’m never givin’ up
who i am or who i’m standing up
and i never need an ounce of luck
to understand myself cause that’s enough
yeah that’s enough
chorus:
[+ann one+, ruby ibarra]
+yeah, i can live a thousand cuts+
i can live a thousand cuts
+yeah, i can live a thousand cuts+
than live a life just coverin’ up
and i swear i’m never givin’ up
who i am or who i’m standing up
and i never need an ounce of luck
to understand myself cause that’s enough
yeah that’s enough

+yeah, i can live a thousand cuts+
i can live a thousand cuts
+yeah, i can live a thousand cuts+
than live a life just coverin’ up

i can live a thousand cuts
+i can live a thousand cuts yeah yeah+
+swear i’m never givin’ up ohhhhh+
i can live a thousand cuts yeah+
no i’m never giving up
+i can live a thousand cuts yeah yeah+
i can live a thousand cuts
i can live a thousand cuts
+i can live a thousand cuts yeah yeah+
+you’re never gonna break me down+
+i swear you’re gonna here me now+
+they’re never gonna shake my ground+
+it’s only being me right now, ohh+
if i fall i stand up, break these walls i rise up
even when i lose it all, i always got my eyes up
they prayin’ on my downfall but i’ll never give up
a thousand cuts won’t be enough to keep my fists in these cuffs
