Found My Escape

Read Time:1 Minute, 3 Second

By Jake Cox

He’s not going to keep me from pulling back this time.
He’s not going to keep me trapped like this.
I’m packing up my bags and he’s not keeping me back this time.

I’m not going to be a slave to those voices of anxiety
I’m pushing the devil back for everytime he lied to me
I’m taking a belt to demons who whispered a spare in my ear.

I’m moving forward from this slump
I took my bruises and my lumps
I fell down but I got right back up
so give me a torch and let’s light this up
I’m setting fire to the devil and dousing these demons

look at you now, now you’re not laughing at me
now who’s the one being tortured
you took 10 years of my life and I can’t get them back
you told me to end my life and I nearly got killed for that
you took me down but I bounced right back
so I’m done listening to you and letting you control me

You knew I’d find my way out sooner or later
and I found my escape in the form of a saviour.
