Lyrics
Freedom (Batallando) > 2:47
I?ve been down this road before I heard her say,
And it?s different now I know it?s got to change
You close your eyes, pretend everything?s alright
You don?t realize, it?s not a game he plays you?re fighting for your life, Yeah for your life, yeah yeah, for your life, yeah
When he arrives, he heads straight for the bar
He pours himself a glass of gin and that?s how it starts
You close your eyes, pretend everything?s alright
You don?t realize, it?s not a game he plays you?re fighting for your life, Yeah for your life, yeah yeah, for your life, yeah
Batallando por tu vida, batallando por tu vida
Batallando por tu vida, tu vida, tu vida
In between the slaps that echo through the dark
You blame the love not his disease and take it hard
Close your eyes, pretend everything?s alright
You don?t realize, it?s not a game he plays you?re fighting for your life, Yeah for your life, yeah yeah, for your life, yeah
Batallando por tu vida, batallando por tu vida
Batallando por tu vida, tu vida, tu vida
I?ve been down this road so many times before
I heard her say this shit has got to change
In between the slaps and the bruises on your face
You tell yourself that everything?s okay
But, I?ve been down this road before I heard her say
And it?s different now I know it?s gotta change
Close your eyes, pretend everything?s alright
You don?t realize it?s not a game he plays you?re fighting for you life, Yeah for your life, yeah yeah, for your life, yeah, c?mon
Batallando por tu vida, batallando por tu vida
Batallando por tu vida, tu vida, tu vida
