Peace and Love

Lord knows I pray every night looking for answers
I see nothing in return, I feed my cancers
One day I'm on top, the next I'm like Cam after the Panthers
It's like he hears but doesn't listen, excuse my manners
Sometimes I wake up feeling a knife in my side
Sleep deprived, I'm just along for the ride
Use my ego as disguise just to show you I'm fine
Cuz everyone needs balance, without it what's life
Without it I wouldn't be standing where I am today
Just another kid in the rain still trying to find his way
Not even the people I love most can see when I'm in pain
Cuz no one can see your worst if the best is on display
That's real, that's real, that's real
Dad calling my phone like Sawyer what's the deal
You drink too much when is enough, that's daily
And I'm too selfish to see I have a father who cares about my safety
That's family, and deep down I'm thankful
So I'm sorry for not expressing that as much as I should
I know that's hateful, shameful, just please know I'm grateful
I'm working on myself but even God lost an angel
Everyday I find myself tempted by that angel
And these thoughts keep making it harder to stay faithful
Cuz lately I've found myself conflicted, addicted to all the hard liquor served by beautiful women
And listen, I know that's on me for the way I'm livin
I'm sorry I'm committed to whatever gives me attention
To whatever makes me feel alive, to whoever looks me in the eye
Says they wanna be my ride or die, even if it's all a lie
Even if it fucks with my mind, Even if it's toxic I love her
Who woulda thought love hurts like a motherfucker

Life and death, you can't hide or run
But It's easy to call it quits and just give up
But the night's always darkest before the Sun
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love
The night's always darkest before the Sun
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love

Mama I know we don't always see eye to eye
I know we argue some, Dad's gotta break up the fights
I know you don't approve of some of the girls I like
I know you also don't appreciate me going out every night
But I can't stop thinking bout when you called me that night
You were sick, gone to the hospital, scared of your life
You see me act tough a lot, but after that call I just cried
Couldn't believe the strongest person I know could possibly die
I could hear the pain in your voice when you said you were proud
And I haven't even made it to headlining a sold-out crowd
But I'm bound, I promise soon we'll be hanging a plaque
That was the first time in a long time I said I loved you back
First time in a long time I got a reality check
I paid off my debts, got a new mindset
And I know I still do some things that you don't accept
But I promise I'll always be safe just please don't stress
Please don't stress over my mess, over what life brings
Cuz I got go-to's that help keep my mind off things
Off these things that tend to make me assume and overthink
Off these things that keep my mind from being set free
I'm just blessed God gave you another day to breathe
Another chance, another day with me
Gave me another chance to say that I love you forever
Who woulda thought love could bring us all together

Life and death, you can't hide or run
But It's easy to call it quits and just give up
But the night's always darkest before the Sun
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love
The night's always darkest before the Sun
Tomorrow's a new day filled with Peace and Love
