Paroles Despite it all Joy Denalane

Despite it all

Verse 1

Ain´t it strange,

I worked so hard to bring joy to my life,

but then there´s days,

that something just don´t feel right,

inside,

but see I´m not complaining,

I will reach my aims,

I´m just contemplating,

see I was told,

anything I put my mind to,

I could do,

but they made I known

be careful what you wish for,

it might come true,

and now I´m far from home,

got my man and my baby boys on the phone,

feeling so alone,

Chorus

Despite it all,

I`m in it for the long hall and I´m greatful,

Despite it all,

even through the pitfalls I stand tall,

Verse 2

when it rains it pours,

cause there were times,

when there was nothing I could call my own,

and I couldn`t ignore,

this pillar-to-post-life just can`t go on,

no more,

had to knock down these doors,

and go for what I`m longing for,

there was nore in store,

they say blessed are those,

who struggle just to maintain,

day to day,

and when You`re feelin low,

and nothing seems It´s going Your way,

How could You know, after these blows,

You reap what You sow,

the seeds will grow

Chorus

Despite it all,

I´m it for the long hall and I´m greatful,

Despite it all,

even through the pitfalls I stand tall,

Bridge

Suddenly there were changes,

I saw my soul mate through the strangers,

it caught me unprepared when he was sent to me,

but I knew right then and there that we were meant to be,

and then that moment changed to daily life,

I bore 2 songs and I became his wife,

part of me is still an artist living out a dream,

even through It`s getting hard I wouldn´t want to leave,

cause this is my reality, this is my reality

Chorus (3x)

Despite it all,

I´m in It for the long hall and I´m greatful,

Despite it all,

even through the pitfalls I stand tall
