Dec 2019
I’ve spent my whole life running
From the demons I won’t face,
Yet I thank my lucky stars
That I am here today

The world ain’t nearly half as bad
As I make it out to be,
I know that I will be okay
Even if it’s in my dreams

The pain that I’ve felt before
And the struggles up ahead,
Will not leave me defeated
I will never walk away

My soul is broken
My heart is froze
Yet I will fight another day
I’m no longer alone
The Lord has blessed me time and time
To be the man I’ll be
I thank Him for the pain I’ve felt
Without it I’m not me
Without it I’m not me
Without it I’m not me

The hate will try to knock me down
And leave me half past dead
I’ve been there many times before
And I’ll be there again

But life ain’t bout the lowest days
It’s bout how you respond
We’ll get back up, find our way
And learn how to go on

My friend, I’ll help you make it through
The darkest of your times
I’ll lean on you, you’ll lean on me
I know we will survive

My soul is broken
My heart is froze
Yet we will fight another day
We’re no longer alone
The pain you’ve felt will soon become
A distant, far unknown
Know that you are special friend
Without you, we can’t be
Without you, we can’t be
Without you, we can’t be
