“This is Our Life” is the second track on Des Rocs' 2020 EP of the same name.
The track is an anthem about overcoming solitude and the fear of the unknown, written about living in a time where both of those things abound.
As the song progresses, the lyrics evolve from uncertainty to bold statement...
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna make ya understand this pain
Time keeps slipping, hours turn to days
[Pre-Chorus]
Does the sight of a grave make you feel all alone?
We’re all right, we're okay, face a fear, the unknown
What's it like to be brave when a tear starts to flow?
I’ve seen worse, I've seen worse, I've seen worse, I've seen worse
I've seen worse
[Chorus]
This is our life
This is when no one else will listen to ya
This is our life
This is when everyone is vicious to ya
[Verse 2]
I gotta keep these dreams locked in my cage
Lies we keep teaching on every single page
[Pre-Chorus]
Does the sight of a grave make you feel all alone?
We're all right, we're okay, face a fear, the unknown
What's it like to be brave when a tear starts to flow?
I’ve seen worse, I’ve seen worse, I've seen worse, I’ve seen worse
I've seen worse
[Chorus]
This is our life
This is when no one else will listen to ya
This is our life
This is when everyone is vicious to ya
[Pre-Chorus]
Does the sight of a grave make you feel all alone?
We're all right, we're okay, face a fear, the unknown
What’s it like to be brave when a tear starts to flow?
I've seen worse, I've seen worse, I've seen worse, I've seen worse
I've seen worse
[Bridge]
You kick me in the teeth
I'll get right back up
But you keep this shit up, kid
'Cause I've seen what's worse
[Chorus]
This is our life
This is when no one else will listen to ya
This is our life
This is when everyone is vicious to ya
