Story behind the song
This song was written as an anthem to self determination and self responsibility. . .I lived along time by other people's rules, and refuse to do it any longer. Likewise, i have very little patience for those who refuse to take responsibility for themselves. . .If i stand or fall, it will be on my own terms, with no one else to credit or to blame fot it.
Lyrics
Stand and Fall I have built a fire from the coldness of my heart. . . I survived, I made it through I learned to live with what was true And I’m standing now with my hands held high Or I’ll fall. . . I’ll fall I’ll fall in love with the world around me Be just what I choose to be I survived the winters cold With the fire Inside me I have built a fire from the coldness of my heart It took the winter’s cold for it to start Now I’ll stand and fall on my own terms What you say does not concern me The gods above may touch my hand The rest is up to me To choose what will be I’ll never sell my soul away Now I am free. . . I’m free. . . Free to love or free to hate I believe in hope but not in fate And though I think a Hand may guide it all It’s up to me if I stand or fall Stand and Fall win or lose For me to claim or blame I choose To stand or fall is up to me. . . To me. . . To me! I have built a fire from the coldness of my heart It took the winter’s cold for it to start Now I’ll stand and fall on my own terms What you say does not concern me The gods above may touch my hand The rest is up to me To choose what will be I’ll never sell my soul away Now I am free. . . I’m free. . . Free. . . Free. . . I lived the lies for many years Now I stand and fall, embrace my fears I’m not afraid to fail or win The Fire within me Won’t end. . . This Fire will never end! I have built a fire from the coldness of my heart It took the winter’s cold for it to start Now I’ll stand and fall on my own terms What you say does not concern me The gods above may touch my hand The rest is up to me To choose what will be I’ll never sell my soul away Now I am free. . . I’m free. . .
