Face Rain

Only 23 but telling stories like an old man
Believe me when I say this was not part of the plan
Thought I would be long gone out of here by now
Understand dear it's about time I take my stand
See I'm already used up and washed up out of gas
Guess I'm clean right now, but I don't know how long that will last
These addictions I went through aren't in the past
But my daily struggle and I can't live in a bubble
So I'll pop it now and let you see all my troubles
It's a constant annoyance from one thing to another
Consuming my thoughts it's a persistent bother
And the second I satisfy it I either hide in denial
Or let it take hold of me until I stand up for trial
With my own reputation because I'm in battle with Belial
He wants me so badly and I pull back and to spiral
Too deep in my thoughts my next decision is vital
Only 23 and worried like an old man
That I'm old news and already bit off the hand
That feeds me so effortlessly like I'm one with the band
But one with myself because I stand less than
These artists around me up on pedestals to be seen
Pushing their agendas by whatever means
Necessary to make and get all the glory and fame
All for the hope of just remembering the name
I just hope I didn't miss my train
Take me far away from all of this pain
It'll catch up soon, but all need to do is stay ahead
Haven't felt comfortable even laying in this bed
Depression put me here and I feel so restless
Gotta get up and do something can't let it get the best
Of everything that I've done it's a tragic mess
Gotta face the rain and put my life to the test

Gotta face the rain put my life to the test
Gotta face the rain put my life to the test
Gotta face the rain put my life to the test
Gotta face the rain put my life to the test
Gotta face the rain put my life to the test
Gotta face the rain put my life to the test
Gotta face the rain put my life to the test
Gotta face the rain so I can let my soul rest

I shouldn't just sit here and let my age define me
I still have something to give in this world oh God please find me
I'm done looking to others for answers in life
I know this is my pain and I'm dealing with strife
I wrecked my mind and my body with an addiction
Just because I didn't want to see my own human condition
I'm riddled with conviction and I want to change
My name means "a gift" so let me be gave
To anybody out there that wants to be saved
I don't have the answers but I got a fresh start
It starts with forgiveness that comes from the heart
To truly let go and to be judge free
Only then will you start to see
We've lost all the love and all the real empathy
This worlds grown cold and we cast people aside
And when we start to get feelings we run and hide
Instead stick out your hand and bring them inside
If graciously offered it won't be denied
The reward you'll receive will be better unknown
To offer the unwanted a place to call home
To offer the unwanted a place to call home
To offer the unwanted a place to call home
To offer the unwanted a place to call home
To offer the unwanted a place to call home
