War of Independence

This song deals with aging. The time that you have to come to grips with the fact that you can't do the things you once could and the struggles therein. This the latest song I have written INDEPENDENCE Lyrics by Jeff Ledbetter ©2018 Jeff Ledbetter Music Verse 1 I never wanted to spend my life depending on someone else, When times got hard , when times got tough, I stood tall and tighten my belt I always believed my destiny was something that was in my hands I made decision that was right for me, that others wouldn't understand Chorus Its my war of Independence, that I'm fighting for each day My War of Independence, that seems to be slipping away There's a battle that is raging, and I'm sure there will be more I may not win every one, I've just got to win the war Verse 2 I'm lesser man, if I ask for help But I'm a fool if I don't That's what's running through my mind A declaration of right and wrong Things I could do not long ago I struggle with today It breaks my heart, to say I can't When my children want to play Chorus Its my war of Independence, that I'm fighting for each day My war of Independence, that seems to be slipping away There's a battle, that is raging, and I'm sure there will be more I may not win every one, I've just got to win the war Verse 3 I could figure out a way to make things work Never needed no one else But time has way of changing your life And make you question yourself My Constitution getting amended Faster than I'd like But I've got an army of family and friends That's ready to help me fight. Chorus Its my war of Independence, That I'm fighting for each day My war of Independence, that seems to be slipping away There's a battle that is raging, and I'm sure there will be more I may not win every one, I've just got to win the war
