[intro]
Acoustic guitar opens
[Chorus]
I don’t need to front no more
Lately all I do is glow, take a pause, clear my mind and
She don’t break down no more
She says I lift her up, like angels weren’t meant to hide, and
I ain’t askin questions now
No, I take it if it’s mine, I don’t color in the lines
It ain’t 2009 now
Yeah, I seen what’s past that door
[Acoustic guitar solo]
[Verse 1]
Yeah, alright, you gotta dive in to float
Light was low in this road I chose
Now I wake up every day and breathe
I ain’t got it all, but that sits fine with me
Take it slow and steady, took a trip to see me
Send you back your way with a glow still gleamin
Whole squad tryin figure it out
Ice cold veins, that’s what winter’s about
And sometimes, yeah sometimes I wish I took a cleaner route
Instead of fightin demons bigger than my house, mm
Have some fun, let it bounce when I move
‘Cause it don’t end till they push me out the room
Isn’t it strange how we stack that paper
Buy shiny things just to cover the anger
I was knee-high, dirt on my jeans
Chasin what was quietly chasin me
[Acoustic guitar solo]
[Chorus]
But I don’t need to front no more
Lately all I do is glow, take a pause, clear my mind and
She don’t break down no more
She says I lift her up, like angels weren’t meant to hide, and
I ain’t askin questions now
No, I take it if it’s mine, I don’t color in the lines
It ain’t 2009 now
Yeah, I seen what’s past that door
[Acoustic guitar solo]
[Verse 2]
They ask me why I’m grinnin lately
‘Cause I ain’t ever been this high, maybe
Feels like I just learned how to breathe
I’ll take a quiet mind over war with me
Me and myself, we been at odds
Swung and I missed, then I swung real hard
Take my time, stay in my lane
Life don’t count if you don’t feel the pain
I was diggin holes way down deep
Big enough to hide parts of me
Weight on my back, I carry my own
Still got arms if you need gettin home
I’m right here when it’s dark and you’re tense
I don’t rush, I ain’t jumpin the fence
Even late when the clock run thin
When your chest feel cold within
Turn the rocks that you left untouched
I’m a pro at workin my craft
Truth is I’m just tryin trust in God
When the pressure hits hard
I stay calm, I don’t hit the alarm
[Acoustic guitar solo]
[Chorus]
I don’t need to front no more
Lately all I do is glow, take a pause, clear my mind and
She don’t break down no more
She says I lift her up, like angels weren’t meant to hide, and
I ain’t askin questions now
No, I take it if it’s mine, I don’t color in the lines
It ain’t 2009 now
Yeah, I seen what’s past that door
[Acoustic guitar solo]
