Chad King, musicien, partage sa devise pour vivre avec la SEP

En 2007, Chad King (moitié du duo américain à succès A Great Big World) a appris qu’il était atteint de sclérose en plaque et qu’il risquait d’être paralysé sous sept ans.

Neuf ans plus tard, il gère sa SEP grâce à un régime alimentaire holistique, se sent mieux que jamais et fait tout ce qu’il peut pour sensibiliser le public Cette chanson est son hymne pour vivre avec la SEP :

« Ne jamais abandonner » (Won’t stop running)

Facing forward, lights out, I won’t stop running
Falling backwards, hands tied, I won’t stop running
I’ll take another sunrise, another hand to hold tight
This isn’t over, I am way too young and I won’t stop running

I don’t know how much longer I can fake it
That it’s all alright, that I can do this alone
And I know that life is what you make it
But it’s hard to see stars when you’re always caught in the folds
Every night in my mind it’s a fight but I won’t stop dreaming
‘Cause this isn’t over. It’s never over.

Facing forward, lights out, I won’t stop running
Falling backwards, hands tied, I won’t stop running
I’ll take another sunrise, another hand to hold tight
This isn’t over, I am way too young and I won’t stop runningI’d rather be the one that starts the fire
Than to shut my mouth and be the one who gets burned
Yeah it is what it is, but I wanna go higher
‘Cause I felt it once before I believe the tables will turn
I wanna love and be the one who is loved, no I won’t stop dreaming
‘Cause this isn’t over. It’s never over.

Facing forward, lights out, I won’t stop running
Falling backwards, hands tied, I won’t stop running
I’ll take another sunrise, another hand to hold tight
This isn’t over, I am way too young and I won’t stop running

How do you explain it? For seven years I made it through the falls.
I’m living it all. I’m living it all.
I’m tearing off the labels and suddenly I’m able, scaling walls
I’m living it all. I’m living it all and I won’t stop running.

Facing forward, lights out, I won’t stop running
Falling backwards, hands tied, I won’t stop running
I’ll take another sunrise, another hand to hold tight
This isn’t over, I am way too young and I won’t stop running
