Fight/Flight


Faced with danger,
I wanted to run
(And that I won’t judge) 
It’s in my blood 
to be the one 
who lives 

Faced with danger 
I wanted to fight 
my hand on his throat and I 
scream out the lights 
It’s in my blood 
to boil 

The genes that carry 
(on & on)
are the ones that grit their teeth,
that plant their feet, 
that do what must be done.  
Whether fight or run

The genes that carry
carry a will to live
