Be Strong

You gotta be strong when you're looking my way
You gotta be strong when you cover my faith
You gotta be strong, yeah
You gotta be open

Listen
I'm tired of searching and looking for
Somebody special when that persons me
I'm tired of chasing these woman
Who never want somebody different
There's no queen for me
Is that how it should be
I give me everything deep within me
Just so I could end up a family of me
That shit had me broken
Till I found a way how to fill up my heart
Filled it with music, filled it with friends, filled with art
I fiddle with money, but that shit does nothing for me
I just wanna live out my dreams with the people push me to be
The person I see, when I close my eyes, and search within me
I take all my feeling and vent on a beat
That's how it should be
I'm living my dreams? Is that how it seems?
I'm tired of smiling through all of the pain
That I feel everyday when I wake
I tell you I'm good, I tell you I'm great
But that is a lie, look past my face
A product of all of my fucked up mistakes
But if I ever do say how I feel
Then it turns real, my semblance will break
Erase, the vision I put in my brain, and that is waste
I need me some grace
The kindness of others so I can escape
Embrace the love in my life
Cause there is a lot, when I open up
Kick off my shoes, and sit out the race
And walk my way not run
From all of the things that I did when I'm young
So I can feel none, so I can feel numb
It's way past enough, it's way past enough, for real

You gotta be strong when you're looking my way
You gotta be strong when you cover my faith
You gotta be strong
You gotta be open
