Break My Stride is one of my favorite songs. When I play this song, I use it as a motivator. But today, when I played it on YouTube with the lyrics on the screen,I never occurred to me as a love song - more specifically, a man going through a break up that caused him pain. The one verse I never payed attention to and overlooked.
"You're on the road and now you pray it lasts
The road behind was rocky
But now you're feeling cocky
You look at me and you see your past
Is that the reason why you're runnin' so fast".
From the first time I heard this song, it always drove me to push harder...keep going.
Many people have different interpretations of things people say or actions they make.
Break My Stride is a great song, one of my favorites. I've gone through many obstacles in my life and am very lucky to be alive. These words are always in the back of my mind:
"Ain't nothin' gonna break-a my stride
Nobody gonna slow me down, oh no
I got to keep on moving
Ain't nothin' gonna break-a my stride
I'm running and I won't touch ground
Oh no, I got to keep on moving"
Every time I hear this song, it makes me smile., I think of the people I know who are negative and show no effort towards anything in life. People who think this way are just bringing themselves down in addition to people around them. These people want to be given extra attention, have you feel sorry for them and just have nothing nice to say about anything. One of my biggest pet peeves is when some says 'I CAN'T DO IT".
That's a false statement. CLEAR YOUR MIND OF CAN'T. You can do anything you put your mind to. When I hear this, the first thing that comes to mind is that the person is either scared, lazy as hell and think of all the excuses in the book or just don't care enough about themselves to make that stride.
CHANGE YOUR WAY OF THINKING.
The first step is taking a stride in the direction you've chosen for yourself. Second, don't let anything or anyone get in the way, push past them, don't slow down....you HAVE to keep on moving.
Why waste your time with people that'll slow you down?
My motto: Don't let the negatives stand in the way of what you're aiming for. It's a mental game, if you put your mind towards anything you want to do. You just have to keep moving forward with a positive attitude.
Listening to the words of this song saved me. The first time I heard it, I took it to heart and I let nothing get in my way. This song drives me to keep pushing no matter what stands in the way...just as long as a keep moving..
