about

The song is about facing the dark side of the mind that
shows it’s face in times of struggle and self-doubt.
It’s about fighting those voices in our heads that don’t serve
us and try to tear us down when we are at our lowest. Inspired by BAYWUD’s own personal relationship and battle with depression, “Don’t You Let Them” is ultimately an uplifting song that reminds us to love ourselves, fight for our lives and our mental health, and continue to survive and thrive in the world

lyrics

Don’t You Let ‘Em
I was lost inside the haze
Trying to pay for my mistakes
I met myself and heard him say
You’re not welcome anyway

So keep your head down
Keep your head down
Keep your head down
Keep your head down
Keep your head down
Keep your head down

I couldn’t hear past what he said
I closed my eyes and played like dead
The demon lurking in my head
Is feeding on the color red

I see it all now
I see it all now
I see it all now
I see it all now
I see it all now
I see it all now

Nothing is final ‘til ya finally fade away
You try to survive and live to fight another day
They’re not gonna stop until you break
And they’re gonna bend you ‘til your straight

But don’t you let them
Don’t you let them
Don’t you let them
No don’t you let them
Don’t you let them
Don’t you let them

There’s a line at the pearly gates
And angels telling us to wait
They say we’ll get there in the end
So we got time to pass ‘til then

It’s okay now
It’s okay now
It’s okay now
Yeah I’m okay now
I’m okay now
I’m okay now
