[Intro] Yeah Talkin' to you Both of you Listen [Verse 1] Got your pictures on the dresser Talk to ’em when the house get quiet Heart still heavy like a chain on my chest Some days I barely even fight it But you ain’t gone for me to follow You ain’t want me buried in this sorrow I hear you tell me "Stand up Dad, you still got tomorrow" I feel that echo in my bones When I’m drivin’, when I’m prayin’ alone Tears on the wheel, still I grip, still I steer Pushing through the fear 'Cause the love still here [Chorus] I don’t wanna cry no more I’ma live my best life through you Through you, through you Every breath that I take, I choose I won’t die, I’ma fight, I’ma move I don’t wanna cry no more I’ma live my best life through you Through you, through you I’m still here, that’s the proof [Verse 2] Wake up, say your names first thing Before my feet hit the floor, that’s routine Every step, every laugh, every small little win Man, I do it 'cause I know you’re lookin’ in I see my grandson in the kids on the block I see my baby in the flowers on the walk So when that darkness try to drag me to the end I remember I’m the story you ain’t finished yet So I eat right, breathe deep, call my people more Open up when the hurt knockin’ at my door Turn my pain into power when I talk to the crowd 'Cause you’d want me standin’ up, standin’ proud, sayin’ [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] If I break, I bend back If I fall, I climb fast Every scar on my heart like a roadmap Leadin’ me back to the love that we had [whispered vocals] I’m still here I’m still here [crescendo] Hands to the sky when I feel that ache Talk to you both when my voice might shake But I won’t let the grave write my last line You in my veins, so I outlive the pain, every time [Chorus]
