[Verse]
We grew up in the shadow of an empty chair
No bedtime stories
No one to care
But the streets taught us how to fight
Survive the dark without a light
[Prechorus]
Then came faces
Unexpected saviors
Turning wounds into new flavors
[Chorus]
We had a second chance
Oh
We got a second chance
Uncle held the torch
Now he’s the man who stands
My love’s your guide
Your little hands in his
We had a second chance
Oh
And this is what it is
[Verse 2]
He showed me strength ain’t in the fists you throw
It’s in the love you plant
The seeds you grow
We built a home from shattered bricks
A life stitched up with broken picks
[Prechorus]
Now we’re living proof
Hearts can mend
What was broken finds an end
[Chorus]
We had a second chance
Oh
We got a second chance
Uncle held the torch
Now he’s the man who stands
My love’s your guide
Your little hands in his
We had a second chance
Oh
And this is what it is
