Mostafa Elsaadi — She Took It All

You held me close
And let me fall
I gave you everything
You took it
I chase your love through empty streets
With broken shoes and tired feet
I gave you gold, you gave me stone
I called you home.
You left me alone
You wore a smile, you hit the blade
I paid in tears for every promise made
I beg for peace.
You gave me war.
I lost
And singing] myself outside your door.
But
I have carried too much pain
Walk through the fire, danced in the rain.
You took my dreams, you took my pride
But there's a flame you left alive
You took it all but not my soul
You broke my heart but
I won't fold.
I
Hit the ground.
I rose again
I'm still alive beneath this pain screaming
You took it all.
You took your price.
I
Paid in tears.
I paid in night.
If I go
Down, I won't go
I leave this world still burning fast
You can't take my soul
I won't let go
Through the dark
I crawled.
You
Took it all my soul
I watch the good ones fade away while
Cruel hearts danced in bright daylight
I learned that love can wear a mask and even breathing can be hard.
I held the weight
I couldn't lay
Kept walking through the wind and rain
And every scar became a sign that
I was yours but now
I'm mine
I've carried more than
I can say.
I
Buried parts of me along the way.
You
Took my dreams.
You took my pride
But there's a flame you left alive you
Get all of my soul.
You broke my heart but
I won't fold.
I hit the ground.
I
Rose again
I'm still alive beneath this
You took it all.
You took your price.
I
Paid in tears.
I paid in night if
I go down, I won't go
I'll leave this world still burning flame if
I die, I die unbroken.
Every
Wound, a word unspoken.
If I live, I
Won't live on my knees.
You don't know
The rest of me life.
You never
Had my soul.
You only made me lose control.
And now
I stand where shadows fall.
Still here after it all
You took it all
And not my soul
You tried to baby
I grew bold.
I
Hit the ground.
I rose again.
I turned
My scars into my strength.
You
Took it all.
You took your price.
But
I am more than sacrificed.
If I
Go down, remember my name
I walked through hell and kept
My flame
You took it all oh
But not my soul.
And singing
You couldn't take my soul
