[Verse 1]
I show up, rain or shine
Pick up pieces, cross the line
Late night calls, I don’t decline
I hold it down, I’m on my grind
You need a ride, I’m outside
Need a hand, I set my pride aside
I make space, I make time
I be your calm when you lose your mind
[Pre-Chorus]
But when it’s me
It gets quiet
I ask for more
You keep it light
I give my all
You call that life
Yeah, I see it now
I see it right
[Chorus]
Always there for you
Always there for you
When it’s me, you move slow
I won’t beg, I know
Always there for you
Always there for you
I’ve been carrying you
Now I carry me too
(you know I do)
[Verse 2]
I don’t need pity, I need proof
Need somebody solid in my truth
Not just words when I’m in view
I need that effort coming through
I used to chase what wouldn’t stay
Used to bend in every way
Now I’m learning how to say
“Love me back, or move away”
[Pre-Chorus]
But when it’s me
It gets quiet
I ask for more
You keep it light
I give my all
You call that life
Yeah, I see it now
I see it right
[Chorus]
Always there for you
Always there for you
When it’s me, you move slow
I won’t beg, I know
Always there for you
Always there for you
I’ve been carrying you
Now I carry me too
(yeah, I do)
[Bridge]
I know what has to be done
I don’t wait on anyone
I’ll be my own one and one
Watch me rise, I’m the one
No more chasing, no more maybe
I’m the one who saved me
If you love me, love me greatly
If you don’t, then let me be
[Chorus]
Always there for you
Always there for you
When it’s me, you move slow
I won’t beg, I know
Always there for you
Always there for you
I’ve been carrying you
Now I carry me too
(yeah, I do)
