about

Some songs write themselves and Fortitude was one of them that just rolled off my guitar. I have always found that songwriting helps me deal with what's going on in my life and that was certainly the case with this track.

During a particularly dark episode, I poured a whisky, picked up my guitar and started playing. By the time I had emptied my whisky glass Fortitude was complete and my state of mind had improved dramatically.

Fortitude is a very personal track but if it helps you find some solace too then I am pleased to have helped you in any small way.

lyrics

Dazzle Rebel, Fortitude Lyrics:

I, I don’t like who you are
I don’t like who I am
I don’t like anyone

I, I should have thicker skin
Take it with an iron grin
But I can’t take any more

I guess I’ve got a lot to prove
I need to get some fortitude

I, I took up wondering
Riding around at night
Not bothering anyone

I, I found an inner voice
It told me I had a choice
To choose who I become

I got nothing left to lose
I need to find some fortitude

I’ve got so much left to lose
Now I’ve found my fortitude
