To The Grave by Counterparts Lyrics

Struggling to remain rooted in the depths of positivity
While modern day eats away at the foundation around me
And nothing that I do or say seems to rid me of this cynicism
This isn't how I hoped I'd ever feel, and I will not allow myself
To become the advocate for everything that I stand against
And I will not be consumed by pessimism
I will choose to live, rather than "exist"
And while the weight of the world pins me down
I know that humanity is something worth fighting for

Even though we must acknowledge our flaws and those of the world around us
We cannot allow them to control what's ours
We control our own destiny, from this day and to the grave

I will not turn my back on the problems I will face
I will embrace and overcome, and use them to create a better future
Living day to day is a gift I refuse to squander away
We control our own destiny
