LEDGER's powerful music video for "Not Dead Yet" premiered exclusively on Billboard yesterday. The video, featured on Billboard's Rock homepage, shows shots of LEDGER in a boxing ring match, paired with flashes of the rocker in a boarded-up room, tackling anxiety, fear, and the fight to overcome.
The UK native has been open about her battle with anxiety since the release of her debut EP, sharing with Billboard, “There was a moment where I knew I couldn’t let these things completely take me out. I can’t let fear rob me of my own life. I’d rather go down swinging and fight it, even if it is until the day I die. I wouldn’t let [fear] just steal my life away from me."
Jen Ledger's unique vocals and powerful stage presence have given her a distinct role in Skillet since joining as the band's drummer when she was just 18. Ledger has had the privilege of being a part of Skillet as they have cemented their place as one of the 21st century’s most successful rock bands, selling more than 11 million units worldwide, receiving two GRAMMY Award nominations and winning a Billboard Music Award for the multi-platinum-certified Awake. With an engaged and ever-growing social media presence, the latest signee for Atlantic Records and Hear It Loud released her debut solo endeavor, LEDGER (4/13), available now.
Lyrics
Called to the ring
Taking me round by round
It hurts and it stings
Taking me down, down, down
You think that you caught me
I can hear you taunt me
Fractured and I'm falling down
My enemy is watching me bleed
I’m not dead yet
So watch me burn
Go on trying, lying, you’re so sure
I may be broken
But I’m not done
I’ll go on fighting, while there’s breath in my lungs
Cause I’m not dead yet
No I’m not dead yet
You wait for the day
That I'll be counted out
You stand at my grave
Already breaking ground
But I don't think you know me
There's a side you don't see
Been to hell and made it out
My enemy, Ill watch you bleed
I'm still awake
I won't go away
It’s gonna take more than you can bring
Calling my name
Heavens calling my name
