[Intro]
Yeah

[Verse 1]
Wanna talk keeping it real?
On the real, let’s be real, this as real as it gets
The fear that we feel
Every breath that we steal, while we here in the flesh
Tryna strike a deal
As I fall to my knees and I kneel and I beg
My desperate appeal
Saying please, let it be me instead
Heart racing, I can’t take it
Wishing I could take back the time wasted
Days that came and went, spent waiting
Finally understanding why the doctors call them patients
Till I looked it up only to discover
The origin is latin, the meaning? The one who suffers
Tomorrow can’t come soon enough
We are only human, time to show our truest colours
And I would give anything I have, you can have it all back
If I could just turn back time and never have to get that call
Never have to learn the hard way how strong you are
Or be in awe watching your tiny frame standing up so tall
But it can take its toll on even the bravest soul
It’s hardest to accept what’s out of our control
We play the hand we hold and we won’t ever fold
The moral of our story when it’s told
[Chorus]
How something could be so unfair?
I ask myself why
It feels like there’s no one there
When I look up to the sky
Won’t anybody hear my prayer?
Left behind, I am searching for a sign
That you’ll be by my side

[Post-Chorus]
I just wish there was something I could say
That’d make it all okay, that could take the pain away, no
Problem is that there’s something in the way
Yeah there’s something in the way, yeah there’s something in the way, no
I just wish there was something I could say
That’d give you back today, that’d make it all okay, no
But there’s nothing I can say
Yeah, there’s nothing I can say, no

[Verse 2]
Heartbreaking, I can’t take it
Wishing we could get back the life taken
The ray of light you’d shine was so sacred
Now we’re lost, at a loss trying to explain it
But through the pain, we must try and remember
That nothing lasts forever is what binds us all together
Still, tomorrow seems so far away
How we’re gonna make it through it’s hard to say, but all I know’s that
The brother of my other brother is my brother
When he suffers then he suffers so I suffer
Feel his heart break in my chest for his mother
Tryna find the words I stammer and I stutter, struck dumb
Underneath the lightning and thunder
Holding onto one another, we huddle for dry cover
Standing in the eye of the storm
Not our final form but for now this is our norm, we saying
[Chorus]
How something could be so unfair?
I ask myself why
It feels like there’s no one there
When I look up to the sky
Won’t anybody hear my prayer?
Left behind, I am searching for a sign
That you’ll be by my side

[Outro]
And after everything we’ve been through
You should know by now I need you
Just know I won’t ever leave you
Won’t ever leave you high and dry
And after everything we’ve been through
You should know by now I need you
Just know one day I will see you
Just know one day, just know one day
I’ll see you on the other side, yeah
