LYRICS VAULT

THE COMEBACK

I have a dream of you whenever
Healing things gets tough
All the things you said forever
Now I know what is a lie

I taught myself no more to worry
Though I’ve seen too much
And though you did
You said you’re sorry
It was a made up story

Trust issues medal
You patched it on me
Now that I’m winning you wanna be friends no
I can’t believe in a word that you say
No

Blessed and protected in what I allow
Close to me
You knew me then but not now
I need no enemies if I got friends like you
Oh

Did you think that I miss you
So much
Did you think I’m someone still
You can touch
You can’t touch me
I ain’t lying when I say
I got power in my veins
Did you think God would let you
Come back
In my life

Not the same when I ain’t around yeah
I’m busy talking to God
I shed the darkness that was in
Loving not being loved back
Only reason why you chase me
Stalking my profiles
Is cause you couldn’t replace me
You tried but couldn’t debase me

Thanks to your help I know what I don’t want
Count every stitch
I am good
No more torn no
I betch you’ve never seen anything that brand new
Oh

Since you’re still here just some friendly advice
Learn from your shit
Better don’t do it twice no
Go on your way
Wish you love yourself like I do me

Do you think that I missed you
Eh
So much
Do you think I’m someone still
Who’d fall back no
I ain’t lying when I say
I got power in my veins
I ain’t lying when I say
I am grown and proud of me
Do you think God would let you
Come back
In my life
My life
Oh no no no
Oh no no hey
Oh no no

PICTURE

The weather is cold, the sky is pale. How’d you like that for small talk? I never liked too much the hale That’s how i guess you would respond. There’s so much that I’d love to say but now i won’t dial you no more How all your lies they fell away leaving me lying on the floor And oh it took all my strength to get me up And oh i tell you i’m never looking back at you Now brushing my hair and walking out Now I’m just loving me for me Some days I’m up some days I’m down some wounds on the mend, some still to heal And all was a picture in my head Took a good pain to make me learn with nothing to numb it i’m awake acknowledge the past and let it burn. And oh i’m thankful for those who had my back and oh baby, we’re never looking back It all was a picture in my head so now i’m just loving me for me.

HEAL

I’ve been making
All these steps
Moving on

I’ve been breaking
Generational curses one by one

You don’t know, you can’t see what’s underneath
Everybody’s got a cross they bear
I decided long ago to let me heal for me

No more hurting
Past the point of breaking
Stop romanticizing your pain babe
There’s so much more out there and you can get it
So go ahead and heal
Go ahead and heal
Go ahead and heal
Go ahead and heal

I’ve been laughing
Oh out and loud and proud again
And I’ve been feeling
All the joy return into my lungs
And life is gonna go and teach you grace
Now if you let it
Don’t you get it wrong
Don’t let it harden you
I decided long ago
To let me heal
To let me heal

Now come and raise your voice with me
There ain’t nobody else but you
To get you healed
To get you moving
Get you breathing
Now rise with me
You owe it to yourself
To get you healed
Get you breathing

Oh and I know we’ve been long time hurting
Oh and I know we’ve been long time yearning
Oh and I know we’ve been long deserving
Oh and I know we can make it heal

PRAY/BRAVE

So am I to start running
Who am I to give up
But what am I supposed to do
When I got no strength to fight back

So am I to start running
Would you give it all up
What about those night-times
We swore we’d hold on for the light

I am gonna pray
Pray
Pray
Yeah

Tell me who we’re meant to be
It’s much to unpack
I feel I’ve changed
No longer know
Who’s in the mirror looking back

Tried to piece it together
But she’s changed now for good
So Imma go ahead and love her
Better than any of them could

Like I am brave
Brave
Brave
Brave

Lord give me strength
To fill my lungs
With air to breathe
When it’s getting tough
Wash my tears in your waterfalls
Make me whole

God give me voice
To scream my love
Inspire others who would search their own
Make me breave
Build me up
Cause you showed me I’m not done yet

I am gonna pray
Brave
Pray
I’m gonna be brave
I’m gonna be brave
I’m gonna be brave
I am
I’m gonna
I’m gonna be brave

TRYING

I haven’t touched the keys in a yearBeen trying to heal my own life, change the gearsI have been told that I’m not much too strong and I need to restI had been running for way too longYes

I’d keep tryingBut can’t fit-in in a world that’s dyingCan’t pin me in a wall of lies yeahI kept trippingI was made to flyAnd I would butI’d keep trying to fit in a role that wasn’t mine to playNo more I’ll live in hidingEyes on fire

I hadn’t felt like myself in a yearLet other people’s expectations get to meNow been enough alone to know what I amBeen taking it a day at a time when you leave it thereSo leave it there

Cause I’d keep tryingYou keep looking for me lowI’m highI can’t deny itHigh as tide yeahNow come crushing all my wavesDon’t fight me on itI said thatI’d keep tryingThey said I can’tStill I paint the sky with starsLook at meBright and shinningLord knows I’m thrivingCause I kept trying

I kept tryingI kept tryingNow in a world where it’s all aligningI kept tryingI kept tryingNow in a worldLive in a world

MYSTIC LIGHTS

I want to live my life
Following the magic lights
I owe me this
The one place to be

I want to see the world
I’m an ocean I can dive in and retrieve your words
Unspoken yet
What I am to you
What I am to you
To you

I’ve reached the end of a road
In a life that it was all I’ve ever known so far
I wish you could see or understand
Cause what I see ain’t something you see
With your own two eyes
It takes heart to see beyond what is or is not
It takes heart to be who you were before they told you who you’re not

It takes heart to be who you are
It takes heart
It takes heart to live as you want
It takes heart
It takes heart so don’t you break it, no
None’s unmistaken
But my heart I have left open wide
Despite my past
So don’t you fuck with it or you get cut
It took cure out of me
What makes you light up
Make sure you go with it
Live from the heart out
Not your parents’ fears
Live like it pours out of your heart
Catching no more tears
Go paint a smile full of suns in a golden field
And when you’re done go make sure
You’ve paid it forth

Cause it takes heart
It takes heart to be who you are
So be it

HUMAN

All these songs sound like another
And I wonder where I fit in
There’s days I think I could have tried harder
Should’ve sold me out to make it big

And all these people asking why you’re not that famous
And all these naked girls telling me to be more shameless
Yet carry shame and play the game and bleed your pain
For people to dance to
And open door
But you’re not human in it
Must be something wrong with you if you’re not choosing it

Well I

I wanna be human
I wanna be me
I wanna create and be at peace with me
I wanna help people
And not dumb them down
I don’t wanna have to drink to numb it all out
I wanna be human
Don’t care about stars
I’m shinning my light
I’m loving my life
And that is enough

People don’t know I’ve sat at tables
Talking business with the greats
Turning down sexual favours
Or contracts wanting me to slave

And all these people asking why you’re not on TV
I’m sure there’s honest people out there who can see me
Until then

I won’t carry shame
And play the game
And bleed my pain for people to dance to
An open door
But you’re not human in it
Must be something wrong with you if you’re not choosing it

And all these people asking why you’re not on TV
I tried to change me while I died so I could be me
Oh yeah
And all these people asking why you’re not that famous
And these people asking
Asking

And I made peace with that
Not feeling like I’m lacking
For not choosing something others would kill for
I wouldn’t kill for anything
I’m for life
As a human

ONCE UPON A CHRISTMAS DREAM

Lift your head and light up all these candles of yoursHaven’t you heardNone told you that the Savior is born

Toss your worries in an open fireLet the warmth fill in your heart tonightSpread your doors and let them open wideDoesn’t hurt to share and give a little back

If you didn’t notice if you didn’t know it’s ChristmasSo say that you forgive meDon’t keep up unfinished business

Toss your hurting in our Savior’s handsThere will be another chance to poutSpread your arms wide open high aboveCause it’s love this day’s about

Oh lift your head and light up all these candles of yoursHaven’t you heardNone told you that the Savior is bornYeah, no one’s talking about it anymoreBut God had not to do with religionI get you hate everything you’ve been taughtBut we don’t need no church to feel God’s love no

So toss your worries in the snow filled breezeFeel the warmth from deep withinAnd gaze up high and hear the Angels singOnce upon a Christmas dream

If you didn’t notice if you didn’t know it’s ChristmasSo tell me that you love meDon’t keep up unfinished business.

THE CHRISTMAS GOBLINS

Come by the fire and rest your SoulAnd hear the tales from centuries agoOld tales the say of creatures of loreUnder the EarthA tree and a saw

The Christmas Goblins says our folkThe Tree of Life to cut was their workSawing it deepHoped it collapsesAll through the yearWith ropes and axes

For 12 long days from Christmas DayTo 6th of January they’d stayRoaming the EarthFull on mischiefDown from the chimneysLooking for treats

The Christmas GoblinsSaid old folkAre not too smart but neither a jokeSo busy your heart with large a Yule logBurn day and night and make a good smokeThrow in a shoe to ward off those elvish blokes

With Christed waterBasil and crossGo sprinkle all your windows and doorsPlace a colander where they can seeWatch as they count all night up to three

When to the Earth’s core they returnThe Tree of Life has healed againBack to their work to knock the Tree downTill Christmas come again and they’re back in town

CHRISTMAS WITH MY ANCESTORS

I miss you on Christmas eveningI miss youYou’re gone awayMemory ain’t going away

When mom and dad would be gone and you were there for my sisterSo she didn’t have to spend New Year’s all aloneAnd I owe it all to youYou wentCalling out for youI ain’t been the sameOhSince you’ve gone

And INever thought even though you’re not aroundI would still be sitting ’round the table with my AncestorsAnd INever thought I’d feel your Spirit blowingWith every wind and every leaf carried within itAnd you were itYou were itYou were it

Life sometimes can feel like an OdysseyIt was all fine untilYou weren’t next to meHolding my handAnd how you’d come with smiles and a photograph for everyoneRemember you told me you saw our Spirits on these polaroids

And the words you said are still hereAnd your wisdom still I keep in meAnd sometimes I think I’ve seen you in a crowd

Cause I never thought even though you’re not around I wouldStill be sitting ’round the table with my AncestorsAnd I never thought I’d feel your Spirit blowingWith every wind and every leaf carried within itAnd you were itYeah you were itYou were it

HEAD ABOVE WATER

I know there’s a lot about my past I need to overcome. I know sometimes I just don’t feel like talking to anyone. But be patient. Be patient with me. Be brave, yeah. Cause I swear I’m gonna be so much better when I’m done with this. Heaven knows I try to keep my head above water.

ALCHEMY

Don’t care where you’ve beenDon’t care what you’ve doneBut loving you, babeIt’s bringing me down

Sometimes I don’t knowHow to give you what you wantI can be many thingsBut never a coward. I’m no coward

I walked this road all aloneHanded you my heart not afraid of being hurtI will now lay it down, baby

Loving you feels like alchemyI don’t really know how to love youLoving you feels like alchemyI don’t really know what you want from meLoving you feels like alchemyI don’t really know how to love youLoving you feels likeI don’t really know what you want from me

Now baby I got no more tears for your spellBut I know if I go wouldn’t serve me as wellNo, noSometimes I don’t knowHow to give you all of meYou say that you love meBut you wanna be freeTell me how could this be?

How could you go on aloneWhen I handed you my heart not afraid of being hurt?I will now lay it down, baby

I let it all go put my strength for youI need to know babe what you’re telling is trueI got to knowAnd all of these times I’d be playing the foolI need to know babe what you’re telling is trueBaby, talk to me

Sometimes I don’t know how harder I could tryI’d set you free but I need you to be mineLoving you feels like alchemyI don’t really know how to love you, babeLoving you feels like alchemyI don’t even know what you want from meLoving you feels like alchemyLoving you feels like…

YOU LOST ME

You lost me when you stopped caringDon’t mean if you look what I’m wearingYou lost me when you hurt me, babeAs if I wasn’t enough any day

Did you get enough of me?What do you got to hide from me?Should be glad you’re having me.Oh babe. Oh no.

Baby please just tell me have I gotten it all wrong?Everytime we touch you’re not thereOh baby I thought we had it allEverything’s turned to nothingTell me have I imagined it all?Sorry if I break it to youBut you know I know

You had me like a fool for youSince the very time I saw youYou had me feeling lovesick babeYou goin’ ’round while I would just sit there waiting for you

Did you get enough of me?What do you got to hide from me?Should be glad you’re having me.Oh babe. Oh no.

I know your mama now hates meBut did you tell her how you played me?I gotta change emotions so I’m putting me in motion

I DIDN'T DIE

Taking a moment to look aroundI guess it’s been easier to let me in doubtTaking the momentThere must be another wayBut I guess it’s been easierFor you to turn around

Moving over takes forgivenessI’m feeling tired but I can’t give up

Wasted my time giving with you just takingAnd all of the love I watched you forsakingI can’t believe you got the nerve to justCall me up and cryTaking it backwards with you shaming me for my bodyAching but finally I’m learning how to love meI can’t believe that after everything I didn’t die

Put you all the way up like a GodI handed you wand and crownBuilt you a pedestal

I took every word turned it into fiery praysBut I guess it’s been easier for you to turn awayI am over what you made of meYou think you made meBut I’m so much strongerYou couldn’t handle meYou were afraid of me in the end

Wasted my time giving with you just takingAnd does she know you still do all I turned you out for?I can’t believe you got the nerve to justCall me up and cryTaking it backwards with you shaming me for my bodyAching but finally I’m learning how to love meI can’t believe that after everything I didn’t die

Had me infront of youYou wouldn’t see me even if I fall on youHooks and ropesYou tied me by my hopes then put a price on loving you

Had me infront of youYou wouldn’t see me even if I fall on youHooks and ropes, you tied me by my hopesThen put a price on love

EXIT THEME

Seems you’re now being the kind of man I wish you had been for meChanged your waysThe place you liveYou share the world with her unlike with me

I feel like this is all about you though, not herAnd I had hoped that someday you would learn to love another

Winner’s got to be youAfter playing it to be this hurtBut after all I see youAnd you ain’t getting me to play your game.

No.

Not mad at you for anythingI just wanna play you your exit theme.

You had me fooled up with those messages to your exesHow you missed them and now you’reWith her it’s me you’re texting, oh?

I carried you for many yearsYou played the rockstar while I paid the billsSo what was it you did for me?

You said you wouldn’t talk to meCause she wanted you cut off with meSo why you calling me?

Winner’s got to be youAfter playing it to be this hurtBut after all I see youAnd you ain’t getting me to play your game.

No.

Not mad at you for anythingI just wanna play you your exit theme.

You had me, you lost me, you playing, you fakingYou had me, you lost me, you playing, you fakingYou had me, you lost me, you hating, you fakingYou had me, you lost me, you playing, you fake.
