I was a man

Verse 1

God, I used to have everything, I was a man,

I was a dad with a plan, tryna give what I can.

Had a family, a home, had a reason to stand,

Now I’m homeless, all alone, just dirt on my hands.

I’m not doing good, Lord, my mind ain’t right,

Thoughts scrambling loud every day, every night.

I don’t know who I am if I’m not providing,

Built to protect, now I’m barely surviving.

Hook

I was a provider, I was holding it down,

Now I’m lost in the silence of a nowhere town.

God, I’m calling Your name from the floor I’m on,

I’m still breathing somehow, but I feel long gone.

Verse 2

I was taught be a man, carry weight, never break,

Put food on the table, put a smile on their face.

Now I stare at the sky, asking how did I fall,

From having it all to just praying I don’t stall.

My heart feels heavy, my head stays loud,

I feel invisible buried deep in a crowd.

If I ain’t a provider, then what am I worth?

God, teach me who I am before I knew the hurt.

Hook

I was a provider, I was holding it down,

Now I’m lost in the silence of a nowhere town.

God, I’m calling Your name from the floor I’m on,

I’m still breathing somehow, but I feel long gone.

Bridge

Maybe I’m more than the things that I lost,

Maybe You’re working even through the cost.

If You still hear me, don’t let me go numb,

I’m broken and tired, but I’m still Your son.

Outro

God, I used to have everything… now I’m just alone,

But I’m knocking on Heaven like “Please, bring me home.”
