You vs You
A song made by Ricky C Ngezyi
**
Woke up this morning, mirror had two faces
One says “rise up son”, the other says “stay down”
One built from nothing, the other counts the losses
One remembers the pain, the other wants to drown
They both live in my chest, both claim my name
Both say “I am you”, but only one wins the game
***_
There’s a you in you that makes you be you
When life got hands around your throat, that you pulls through
It’s you against You, but don’t lose the fight
The you that survived before, will survive tonight
You are you 💯, so stand your ground
Don’t let the tired version take your crown
**
One voice says “quitter”, one voice says “king”
One voice counts the scars, one voice counts the wings
One voice wants the easy way, one voice wants the true
One voice says “give up”, the other says “be you”
Real life situation, no script, no actor
Just a man in the mirror, fighting his own shadow
_**_
There’s a you in you that makes you be you
Every battle you’ve won started right there in your chest too
It’s you against You, so choose the strong side
The you that kept walking when the whole world lied
You are you 💯, that’s your power and proof
The you that won yesterday, can win this truth
_***
So when life gets quiet and the voices get loud
Remember who you are, stand tall in the crowd
There’s a you in you that makes you be you
And that you… that you always comes through 💯
