about

This song came from a strange tuning I came up with: open f#minor! The pretty part was mine and Tobias came up with the heavy chorus. The lyric is a metaphorical slap in ones own face, get out of the funk and recharge your batteries. To own who you are, value yourself and cherish your unique signature in this world. It came out of something a close friend told me once; “Care about other peoples judgments and you become their prisoner.”

lyrics

Recharge
(Zay, Tobias, Taylor)

Don't give your power away
Don't give your power away
One persons words can't erase your name
One situation can't wipe you away
One source of movement
One source of space
Letting the past slip away

Your time
Your life
Recharge inside

Don't give your power away
Don't give your power away
All that you are is taken in vain
the place that you've come to is slipping away
It's a waste to lose you
Your need is real
The time to heal

Your time
Your life
Recharge inside

Hold yourself higher than the closest circling sun
Hold yourself higher than the feeling that your done

Your time
Your life
Recharge inside
