Intro:
(soft instrumental)

Verse 1:
It only got harder, I swear to you
Everything I was doing wasn't to hurt you
Sitting on the couch, pulling out my hairs
Wondering when things will change, feeling like it's all in vain
Day after day, asking myself
How much more do I need to change?
I did everything I could, all that I knew how to do
But the arguments never ended well, our hearts pulling us closer
Yet our minds drifting apart, beyond our reach
It was never supposed to be this way
I tried to hold on, but couldn't stay

Chorus:
Those promises
You had me living out promises
Those promises
Were they ever real to you?
It only got harder, I swear to you
Those promises you made
Had me waiting, standing still
Those promises were never real anyway

Verse 2:
Got us the house we both wanted, dreams shattered in the end
The love we once had, couldn't withstand the pain
Why didn't you just walk away?
Instead, chose to stay, repeating the same mistakes
I just don't understand, what more can I do?
To make you see, I don't want you here, I can't go through it all again
It's hard enough for me now, I can't stay

Chorus:
Those promises
You had me living out promises
Those promises
Were they ever real to you?
It only got harder, I swear to you
Those promises you made
Had me waiting, standing still
Those promises were never real anyway

Bridge:
(Instrumental break)

Chorus:
Those promises
You had me living out promises
Those promises
Were they ever real to you?
It only got harder, I swear to you
Those promises you made
Had me waiting, standing still
Those promises were never real anyway

Outro:
(softly fades out)

Magical ain't it
I'm running with a crown
Wasn't born into it this way
Nope, didn't steal it
But I ain't no Saint either
Just worked it up from the bottom
Looking up to a ceiling
Then putting my head down, I told y'all
I told y'all I wasn't gonna be the same
No not after all that I've been through
Not after I dropped all the pride for y'all
Not after I walked off with my head up strong
Oops now I am seeing a flock
Throwing bread crubs look at em follow
Yah I'm a beast with it
Guess growing up wasn't so easy
Maybe that's the story you can't hear it
Many dark moments have me remenising
Painkillers just isn't cutting it now is it
Had to break off this vision
Had to look beyond anything I could invision
Nothing new dark roads will tell you
This one has some light
Must be the flashlight I'm holding

Magical ain't it
I'm running with a crown
Wasn't born into it this way
Nope, didn't steal it
But I ain't no Saint either
Just worked it up from the bottom
Looking up to a ceiling
Even when they left me
Even when they doubt me
Even when they smiled at me
It didn't mean anything
Saw it for what it was to me
Headed up a mountain no strings
Never looked down I forgot it
Quiet up here ain't it
Hearing echoes all around me
Maybe all those heavy feelings
Finally lifted me

Magical ain't it
I'm running with a crown
Wasn't born into it this way
Nope, didn't steal it
But I ain't no Saint either
Just worked it up from the bottom
Looking up to a ceiling
Skies in reach clouds are now beside me
Every lasting freedom that I seeked
Sweated off calories for years
Didn't even notice it was for me
Go and buy it I don't need to see
Like it, I take it now it's free
Everything in my hands or just in reach
Chose to walk away you see
Lost it all for me
What's the point with no depth
Felt like I was reaching blindly
Creative soul burning deep with hopes
Uneducated goals reached them all
Presidented stance welcoming everyone
Come in come in with a soft tone

Magical ain't it
I'm running with a crown
Wasn't born into it this way
Nope didn't steal it
But I ain't no Saint either
Just worked it up from the bottom
Looking up to a ceiling

Yesterday I woke up,
Felt the fresh air,
Had me going crazy,
Haven't had a breath fresh air.
Looking back thinking,
Putting my hands in the air,
Giving my self a good stretch,
What it is to be alive again!
I am always here,
As long as I'm Alive,
You are not alone,
You'll always have a home,
Since I am here,
Keep it in the past,
And don't you ever look back,
Then again even if you do,
I'll always have your back.

You've been surpassing everything,
Learning it from falling deep,
You didn't want anything.
Just looking at a fiend,
Waking up reaching the alarm,
Do I even have to ask?
Yes you had another sleepless night.
Walking up hating life,
Another day carrying regrets from ur past
Another day another bag,
Another hour and I know your calling,
Demons had you under,
Looking at you now,
I see you reaching up,
High as the ******* stars.

Yesterday I woke up,
Felt the fresh air,
Had me going crazy,
Haven't had a breath fresh air,
Looking back thinking,
Putting my hands in the air,
Giving my self a good stretch,
What it is to be alive again!
I am always here,
As long as I'm Alive,
You are not alone,
You'll always have a home,
Since I am here,
Keep it in the past,
And don't you ever look back,
Then again even if you do,
I'll always have your back.
