Cross My Heart
I am more than a number, I'm a feeling, not a color
I'm a sacrifice, I gave up all my fears and my doubts
They say I gotta be a hero, but tell me who gon' save me though
I paid the price, don't you know the future's right now?
Can you tell me who I'm supposed to be
If I can't be myself?
Tell me who's gonna help, help me, so I
Cross my heart, I hope to live forever
I hope this pain don't last too long, too long
Keep holding on, we all in this together
The war ain't over, carry on, stay strong, hey
It took a world emergency to get some break time
Took a pandemic just to make that FaceTime call
I probably shoulda made last Fall
Didn't yesterday I say I'm gon' do that tomorrow?
That's a everyday thought, so I prayed, and I meditate hard
If I take a L, learned, and I elevate dog
Ain't no elevators on the stairway to heaven
God, I ain't always quite clear on direction 'cause
Life ain't seem to go how I planned it
Things will pop out and malfunction, shout Janet
We always take for granted what we think is set in granite
What if we didn't panic, but instead we took advantage
Of the time that we got right now
I knew how shorty was when my mom timed out
I held her inside my arms, pain don't last too long
This ain't forever, it's just 'bout right now
I'll see you again
Can you tell me who I'm supposed to be
If I can't be myself?
Tell me who's gonna help, help me, so I
Cross my heart, I hope to live forever
I hope this pain don't last too long, too long
Keep holding on, we all in this together
The war ain't over, carry on, stay strong, hey
There you are Andy
You didn't forget me
I knew you'd come back for me
So all in all, it's been a journey
I'm a very thankful mother
It's been great, not easy, but great
Oh! It's over, that's it, goodbye, cut
I'm a sacrifice, I gave up all my fears and my doubts
They say I gotta be a hero, but tell me who gon' save me though
I paid the price, don't you know the future's right now?
Can you tell me who I'm supposed to be
If I can't be myself?
Tell me who's gonna help, help me, so I
Cross my heart, I hope to live forever
I hope this pain don't last too long, too long
Keep holding on, we all in this together
The war ain't over, carry on, stay strong, hey
It took a world emergency to get some break time
Took a pandemic just to make that FaceTime call
