[Intro]
Late nights, heavy mind, tryna fight what’s inside
[Verse 1]
I gotta be a better man for the ones that love me
Look in the mirror, who am I becoming?
Drownin’ in a bottle tryna kill what’s ugly
Truth don’t fade when the drink start runnin’
Can’t drink away the pain, gotta weather it
Can’t point fingers, can’t let thoughts settle in
Every night I’m wrestlin’, questionin’
A version of me I ain’t settlin’
[Pre-Chorus]
Came too far just to crumble now
Slept in cars, I remember how
Lost and found but I stand my ground
Still the dark come when the sun go down
[Chorus]
Pain, I been tryna shake it off me
Rain, but it keep fallin’ on me
Pray for a better man inside me
Devil still walk right beside me
Pain, I feel it in my chest now
Change, yeah I’m fightin’ for it right now
Won’t let it take my soul away
I’ma learn to weather the pain
[Verse 2]
Slept in my car, now I got my family
Still got scars, darkness follow me
Devil on my back, demons on my feet
Everywhere I look, evil I can see
Stay humble but I’m tumblin’
Heavy soul, feelin’ numb to me
[Bridge]
Tammy, I’m sorry for the past I said
Words cut deep, still stuck in your head
Never meant harm, I take that blame
Verbal scars hit just the same
I’m tryna grow, I’m tryna change
[Verse 3]
To my friends, I been outta line
Miss my brother Xavier all the time
Say things just to fill that void
Lost inside, tryna mask that noise
If I seem fake, I’m just fightin’ me
Tryna be who I’m supposed to be
[Verse 4]
To my family, sorry for them drunk calls
Only time I talk when the liquor fall
Weight on my shoulders, too heavy to hold
Alcohol make me feel less cold
But I love y’all more than I show
Even lost, I hope you know
[Verse 5]
To my daughters, I love you forever
Cherish every moment we had together
If you saw my worst, I tried my best
Give you the world with a broke chest
Proud of the women you’re becomin’
Strong and wise, that mean somethin’
Don’t take life personal, rise above
Be the change, lead with love
[Outro]
Pain… I’ma weather it
For my kids, for my life… I’ma weather it
