Landon Elliott - Hell or High Water

Predators in the boneyard
In a class of bullies I was that kid
Taking jungle gym punches in my ribs
Spitting up blood
A signal fire burning in my head
I thought “this couldn’t be it,
This can’t be it now""
I just don't believe
I just can't believe

A shadow to the backbeat
A dime in the city street
Chump change
I deconstruct and rearrange
Tearing off my own skin
Copy paste, hands shake, half grin
I think “this shouldn't be it
this can't be it now”
I have to believe
I've got to believe

Come Hell or Highwater
I will ascend
Come Hell or Highwater
I will ascend

Hovering 'round the cool kids
Vulture on the skids, this rat race
a domino; a masquerade
Trying to belong is like
A Knife in a gun fight, no chance
I take a stab at it
always get shot down
I have to believe
I've got to believe

Come Hell or High water
I will ascend
Come Hell or High water
I will ascend

Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Home is a ghost when no one's around
Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Everything's light with darkness around
Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Fences are down, the people sing out
Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Gotta get through this world somehow

I will ascend

Home is waiting feeling haunted
Light is breaking, darkness fleeting
Fences falling, people singing
Hearts are burning, world keeps turning

Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Home is a ghost when no one's around
Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Everything's light with darkness around
Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Fences are down, the people sing out
Everyone's lost and everyone's found
Gotta get through this world somehow

I will ascend
