about

This song is mostly about becoming aware of the beauty of your surroundings, and striving to be your best self.
Whether that be for yourself, someone you love, God, etc,
and how that can be the light that sort of guides you through your darkest moments.

lyrics

If it's too late for me to make it through
I've been feeling tired for awhile
But I can change if you want me to

Two seven, learned a thing or few
Gotta slow it down, I know that now
All the years that I spent looking back
When I should've had a laugh
Would that make you proud
Had you been around
Had you let me drown
I'd never get the chance to say this now
Would've been at the bottom of a lake
Held down by the weight of mistakes I made
Was it will or fate to be filled with waste
Turn anew and burn away
All the times I'd call you out by name
With no response, no exchange
I was told you'd pick up when I call
When I fall, all I hear is ring ring ring
Busy big man tryna do big things
While little man stares and he daydreams
How he'd grab that mic
Tell the whole world it'll be all right
Don't snuff that light on the coldest nights
Never let go, better hold on tight
'Cause life's a trip, and she's moving fast
It ain't my first, and won't be my last
But the one thing that I'll take from my past
There's more to learn, and more to earn, so don't you hold back

I've been feeling tired for awhile
But I can change for you
If it's too late for me to make it through
I've been feeling tired for awhile
But I can change if you want me to

So tough to talk about love
It's the path I suffered and wrote
It's not you, it's me, always broken
All these hands surrounding my throat
It's like every chance that I push
From the ground up, I get pulled
The more I dance in front of the Queen
The less I look, but feel like a fool
So let's grab a drink or smoke and talk it out
There's nothing new here to talk about
Please just leave before I feel the need to scream
You know how much I love to shout
And when the rain pours
You, I can't do without
The light that breaks, the warmth I devour
In my final hour, I will take that bow, take the vow
As long as you allow me to be around
If it's too late to take my place
Next to you, I won't be saved
I couldn't change, some would say, my selfish ways
We'll meet again in due time
At my worst and during my prime
When the stars align, I'll make the climb
Come redefined, don't hold back
