Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hand-me-down shoes
Kitchen light hummin
Mom at the table
Stack of bills, eyes runnin
Little boy askin
"Where my father at?"
She just stare at the window
Never answer that
I watched your chair
Sit there, stay empty
Heard every lie
You were busy, you were tempted
Phone never rang
But my pillow stayed wet
I kept waitin on a ghost
You ain’t show up once yet
[Chorus]
You left your son in the dark, I was reachin
Long nights cryin to a ceiling that ain’t speakin
Thought it was me, thought I was the reason
Now I’m more of a man than you’ll ever be (believe it)
You left your son in the dark, I was bleedin
Heart on the floor, but my soul kept breathin
Learned how to stand from the pain you were feedin
Now I’m more of a man than you’ll ever be (you’ll ever be)
[Verse 2]
I taught myself
How to knot that tie
How to take that hit
How to taste that pride
First fight, split lip
No one in the crowd
Walked home, head low
But my spirit got loud
Coach said, "Son
You got fire in your chest"
You sparked that match
When you left me with this mess
Now I tuck my lil bro in
Tell him he enough
Show up every day
Even when the day’s rough
[Chorus]
You left your son in the dark, I was reachin
Long nights cryin to a ceiling that ain’t speakin
Thought it was me, thought I was the reason
Now I’m more of a man than you’ll ever be (yeah)
You left your son in the dark, I was bleedin
Heart on the floor, but my soul kept breathin
Learned how to stand from the pain you were feedin
Now I’m more of a man than you’ll ever be
[Bridge]
I don’t hate you
I just see through you
You ran from the mirror
I had to run through it
You gave me nothin
So I made a plan
You walked away from a boy
I grew into a man (woah)
[Chorus]
You left your son in the dark, I was reachin
Long nights cryin to a ceiling that ain’t speakin
Thought it was me, thought I was the reason
Now I’m more of a man than you’ll ever be (ever be)
You left your son in the dark, now I’m shinin
Every old tear on my face turned diamond
You were the wound, but I’m the healin
I’m more of a man than you’ll ever be (yeah)
