[Verse 1]
I wake up mad, same bed, same ceiling
Same bills, same weight, same numb-ass feeling
I speak, but the room keep dodging my name
Like my hurt on mute and my hunger to blame
I been the one with the plan in my palm
Holding this house together, staying too calm
Put food on the table, put fire in my chest
Still I get looked through like I ain't doing my best
My back full of miles, my face full of stress
I swallow my pride just to carry the mess
No one asks how I bleed in the dark
They just want the engine, never want the sparks
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the doubt in the hallway
I feel it every day
But I came up from the pressure
Ain't no other way
[Chorus]
Unheard, but I keep on
Unseen, but I stay strong
Provider with a broken heart
Still I move, still I move on
Unheard, but I keep on
World of pain, I carry on
If they won't see the work I do
I see me, I see me through
[Verse 2]
Every morning I lace up the same old fight
Bloodshot eyes, but I chase that light
Not 'cause I love the war in my head
'Cause I got people depending on the bread
I know that look, that fake "you good?"
Like you care when I say I should
But my words hit walls, then they fade away
And I learn to live with the price I pay
I been the strong one, the last one fed
The last one resting, the last one read
And loneliness sits where the laughter used to
But I keep my chin up, I got work to do
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the doubt in the hallway
I feel it every day
But I came up from the pressure
Ain't no other way
[Chorus]
Unheard, but I keep on
Unseen, but I stay strong
Provider with a broken heart
Still I move, still I move on
Unheard, but I keep on
World of pain, I carry on
If they won't see the work I do
I see me, I see me through
[Bridge]
If I fall, I fall forward
If I break, I build again
I got scars in my shadow
I got thunder in my skin
One day they gon' say my name
Like it mattered all along
Till then I hold this burden
And I turn it into song
[Chorus]
Unheard, but I keep on
Unseen, but I stay strong
Provider with a broken heart
Still I move, still I move on
Unheard, but I keep on
World of pain, I carry on
If they won't see the work I do
I see me, I see me through
