Lyrics
"STANDING MY GROUND"
By Arnold Patton and Ron Patton
VERSE 1:
After you - I told myself I'm gonna survive
I'm stronger than the heartache you brought into my life
Things are gonna change
From the way they look right now
I'm using what strength I have
To turn my life around
I always got my signals crossed
My timing was a little off
You took advantage
I couldn't stand it
Now I'm the one walking out
CHORUS:
But that's all in the past
Buried along with the memories
Nothing will ever destroy me once more
Like you did before
I'm Standing My Ground
Now - I won't be so easy to break
'cause I've rediscovered new faith in myself
And nobody else will ever tear me down
I'm Standing My Ground
Standing My Ground
VERSE 2:
Free at last - l see myself on different road
No longer am I burdened with such a heavy load
You treated me just like a child
Gave your love once in a while
You were the magnet
I was attracted
Now I'm the one leaving you
CHORUS:
But that's all in the past
Buried along with the memories
Nothing will ever destroy me once more
Like you did before
I'm Standing My Ground
Now - I won't be so easy to break
'cause I've rediscovered new faith in myself
And nobody else will ever tear me down
I'm Standing My Ground
Standing My Ground
SOLO/BRIDGE:
I'm waving goodbye to all the tears I used to cry
I've had my fill with you and all you put me through
END CHORUS:
Now - I won't be so easy to break
'cause I've rediscovered new faith in myself
And nobody else will ever tear me down
I'm Standing My Ground
Standing My Ground
