(Intro)
Ooh I see you
Even when you hide your truth
I see the good man underneath the pain
I see your worth when you can't see you
(Verse 1)
You were just a child, supposed to be taught how to be a man
But the hands that should have held you left you hurting where you stand
Beat down by the one who should have shown you love
Learned to survive the streets cause that was all you knew of
Started a little family, thought you finally had a home
Found a second love, your soulmate, called her your wife, your own
Till she broke your heart and she did not stay
Left you questioning if love ever comes your way
(Pre Chorus)
And I know why you don't sleep at night
Why you stare at the ceiling trying to find the light
Why you hold it all in, scared to fall apart
Baby let me in your heart
(Chorus)
Watching you hurt makes my heart break
Seeing you drown in a hurt you can't escape
You carry pain that tells you you're not enough
But I see the good man, I see the love
You say you want it over, you pray God take you away
But you still here, you still breathing, you was made for better days
So forgive yourself, love yourself, let yourself heal
Take my hand, I will lead the way, this love is real
(Verse 2)
You raised your two little brothers, the streets was your savior
Your only way to survive, your only behavior
But as they got older life got too hard to hold
Stress and family pressure took a toll on your soul
Lost your middle brother, pressure took his soul away
Youngest left the same way, left you alone in that pain
No one to call when the noise gets loud in your head
So you live in depression with the words you never said
(Pre Chorus)
And I know why you don't sleep at night
Why you say you want to end it when the pain gets tight
Why you smile for the world but you falling apart
Baby let me hold your heart
(Chorus)
Watching you hurt makes my heart break
Seeing you lonely, carrying all that weight
You think you are broken, but you been so strong
You been alone too long
You say you want it over, you pray God take you away
But you still here, you still breathing, you was made for better days
So forgive yourself, love yourself, let yourself heal
Take my hand, I will lead the way, this love is real
(Verse 3 - Rap Soul)
Yeah listen,
I met a good man who don't know he good
Heart so heavy been carrying more than he should
You scared to show me all of you, the dark you hide away
Think if I see the ugly parts I am gon run away
But I love you unconditional for all that you is
And all that you could be, and all that you been through kid
You think I shouldn't see the tears the fear the past
But I want it all baby let me love you past that
You don't gotta be perfect you just gotta be here
Let me sit in your storm, let me dry your tears
(Bridge)
I told you I love you unconditional
For all that you are and all that you could be
Even the parts you think I shouldn't see
I love it all so just breathe with me
Forgive yourself love yourself heal with me i’ll lead the way for you
