Lyrics
[Intro]
Late night lungs
Coffee on my tongue
Ash on my hoodie
Heart feels young
[Verse 1]
Talk to myself on the walk home
Street cold, but my head warm
Replayin' every little side-eye
Tryna find the part where I went wrong
Bills on the table like bad news
Text thread full, but I'm half used
Friends say “call,” I just let it ring
Keep the volume up, still I mute things
Mom said “rest,” I said “I’m fine”
Dark half-moons under my eyes
Still I show up, laugh on cue
Leave my doubts hangin' in the back room
Hood up, headphones, cheap coat
Fear in my chest like a deep note
Talk big dreams in a small room
Plantin' little seeds in a hard June
[Chorus]
Ash on my hoodie, prayers on my breath (on my breath)
Carry my worries like weight on my chest (on my chest)
Still I rise up, even when I’m stressed
Still I rise up, even when I’m stressed
Tell 'em I’m good, but I’m doin’ my best (doin’ my best)
If I fall once, I get up, no rest (get up, no rest)
Still I rise up, even when I’m pressed
Still I rise up, I’m doin’ my best
[Verse 2]
Work badge swingin' like a chain
Smile at the boss, hide the pain
Lunch break sittin' on the curb
Cold fries, scrollin' through the worst words
Timeline full of “look at me”
Perfect teeth, perfect trips overseas
I’m in the laundromat, foldin’ doubt
Coin in the slot, tryin' wash it out
Grandma voice in my ear low
“Baby, you gold, don’t you ever move slow”
Stir that pot, keep your spice
Don’t let nobody set your price
So I talk soft, but I think loud
Breathin’ in deep when I feel drowned
Little by little learn to trust
Everything heavy ain’t meant for us
[Chorus]
