NEEDTOBREATHE - Hard Love (feat. Lauren Daigle) [Jason7189 Remix]

Lyrics:
Trading punches with the heart of darkness
Going to blows with your fear incarnate
Never gone until it's stripped away
A part of you has gotta die to change

In the morning you gon' need an answer
Ain't nobody gonna change the standard
It's not enough to just feel the flame
You've gotta burn your old self away

Hold on tight a little longer
What don't kill ya, makes ya stronger
Get back up, cuz it's a hard love
You can't change without a fallout
It's gon' hurt, but don't you slow down
Get back up, cuz it's a hard love

You know the situation can't be right
And all you ever do is fight
But there's a reason that the road is long
It take some time to make your courage strong

When the wolves come and hunt me down
I will face them off and stand my ground
Cuz there's a fire burnin' in me
They will see my strength in this love I found

It's a hard love


Remix details:
I really like the album version of this song, but I'm not a huge fan of the refrain, as it just feels like it was designed to have a voice accompany Bear.
The Shack version with Lauren Daigle is also excellent, as she sounds much better in the refrain then Andra Day; sadly, this version lacks a lot when it comes to the choruses, as they removed the piercing chords to make room for Lauren's voice.

So, to have the best of both worlds, I have used the album version as the template, and have substituted the 3rd verse and refrain with the ones from the Lauren Daigle version.

They are not huge changes, but they perfect an already good song in my opinion.
