My mental illness has done nothing but ruin a lot of my life and relationships over the last few years. I didn't even know why I was self-sabotaging until just a year ago... Over the last four years, I wrote and produced this song to try and cope with the loss of so many friends, but also appreciate the loved ones that have stuck by me. Many claim to support those in need, though only a few actually do. This is for you.
lyrics
FIRST VERSE
So happy, finally I’m a daddy
took a strong women to convince me
but gladly, give you what you want
cause you’re everything I need
and you freed me from the dark
so I’m happy to succeed
through the hard tribulations
all the patience is worth it
cursed to our goals
cause the plans they are perfect
raising little boys
to be men and see worth
always lessons to be taught
like expect to get hurt sometimes
SING (HOOK / C major)
Oh I
Know I
need you right by my side
We can
reach high
to the sky we will fly
Oh I
Know I
need you right by my side
(BRIDGE RAP)
Cause you’re everything I want
and you’re everything I need
let us reach for the stars
through our love, we will see
SECOND VERSE
See the light
through the eyes of our little ones
pick em up brush em off
you gotta let em run
So they learn who they are and what they’ll be
forever is a choice we don’t have, so we see
our limitations faced with complications
its how we deal with the stress
is likely how we’ll make it
change and rearrange it
they take and we replace it
There’s nothing subtle to this life
it’s how we stand to make a difference
And When the nightmares come
and you’re feeling alone
don’t you dare be afraid
face your fears so you know
just how strong you can be
maybe then you will see
you can defeat anything
you put your mind too
SING (BRIDGEish / C major)
so take this as a sign
yes you and I will climb
to the top of any mountain
you can count on me
like I can count on you
So let your soul be free
SING (HOOK / C major)
Oh I
Know I
need you right by my side
We can
reach high
to the sky we will fly
Oh I
Know I
need you right by my side
(BRIDGE RAP)
Cause you’re everything I want
and you’re everything I need
let us reach for the stars
through our love, we will see
DISTORTED RAP3
with you and I, we can fly
up to the sky soaring high
be there all through the tough times
all those mountains we will climb
SING & RAP
Oh I
Know I
Cause you’re everything I want
and you’re everything I need
Oh I
Know I
and you freed me from the dark
so I’m happy to succeed
Oh I
Know I
let us reach for the stars
through our love, we will see
Need you by my side…
