Amy Winehouse's soulful ballad is a testament to her unwavering loyalty and commitment. The song paints a picture of a woman standing by her partner, ready to support him as he battles his personal demons, which could be anything from addiction to mental health issues. She uses the metaphor of an 'unholy war' to depict the internal struggles that are tearing him apart. Despite the pain and suffering, she is willing to fight alongside him, even if it leads to her own downfall. This song serves as a poignant reminder of Winehouse's own battles with substance abuse and how love can sometimes lead us into destructive paths.
Some Unholy War
Lyrics
If my man was fighting
Some unholy war
I would be behind him
Straight shook up beside him
With strength he didn't know
It's you I'm fighting for
He can't lose with me in tow
I refuse to let him go
At his side, and drunk on pride
We wait for the blow
Put it in writing
But who you writing for?
Just us on kitchen floor
Justice done
Reciting, my stomach standing still
Like you're reading my will
He still stands in spite of what his scars say
I'll battle till this bitter finale
Just me, my dignity, and this guitar case, whoa, whoa
If, if my man is fighting some unholy war
And I will stand beside you
But who you dying for?
B, I would have died too
I'd have liked to
If my man was fighting
Some unholy war
If my man was fighting
