Y La Bamba - Damned

"I have had such an off and on difficult relationship with self-love. Trying to achieve what used to feel impossible and nurture the beginning of allowing myself to love and be loved." - Luz Elena Mendoza Ramos of Y La Bamba
Damned is the ninth track from Y La Bamba's latest album Lucha.
Song Lyrics:
Why wait
sweet baby
When all we do is talk about
what’s been so hard
Talk it out
If you please
take your thought
take your time as you need it
sweet baby
Who said it wasn’t possible
To feel a love so strong
And carry it inside
My mind has been a obstacle
Like its always been
Like its been for quite some time
I know how it sounds
But I swear i’ll be damned
If I don’t give it try
What kind of sick trick is this
When I can no longer hide
Have I lost my way home
I need some time to understand
I need some time to understand it all
Could’ve guessed what went wrong
I need some time to understand
I need some time to understand it all
I know it’s not about waiting at all
For something as
For something as demanding as this
Who said it wasn’t possible
To feel a love so strong
And carry it inside
My mind has been a obstacle
Like its always been
Like its been for quite some time
I know how it sounds
But I swear i’ll be damned
If I don’t give it try
What kind of sick trick is this
When I can no longer hide
