Bushman A Better Place song lyrics

This is the time, this is the moment we shine, the moment we climb

There's moments in life where we follow, we fly but I'm still trying to find that sky

Looking for a reason to listen to me

Let me just give you some pieces of me

Let me just take out my heart that maybe you'll see that I'm not Superman that I really do bleed

Man I'll give you that thing that repeats in your car

But I'll give you that music to heal every scar

Look to the sky and I pray to the stars, find out that myself I've been trapped in the dark

And I know what it is that I'm here to do

Is this really the person I'm supposed to be?

Trying to give you all my story but I can never find the words cause I don't know me

I'm happy, I'm sad, I'm angry, I'm mad and it's all because of this past

When every kid in your school believes you can do it but really thinks that you're trash

When you got friends that say, "we'll always be there"… I look around but where you at?

It's like you all got up and left; onto the next

What was my chance to pack?!

Putting in effort but I should've known better but being alone is just nothing but pressure

Through my endeavors I'm piecing this letter to every kid trying to hold it together

This life is just long, and I'm just from the street

Even the strongest of man will fall weak

But with all the pain and the hurt, the tears on your shirt

That's what finding happiness means

And now you probably think I got this all down

But I don't even know what I'm doing right now

When you're giving your best till your last breath

There's a time where you just want to drown

Picked up myself from the cold hard ground

Friends don't believe what I'm doing right now

Teachers telling me to pull all this right down

Got this whole time to turn this whole life around

And why follow all the steps when I can make my own trail?

Said the ship was sink now lets see me sail

Hope'n that my momma just a fraction of a tail

I've been giving you my heart every time it's been impaled

I ain't out callin names but you know who you are

Trying to shoot me down but I rose to the stars

No I'm not there but I know I'm not far

In the coldest of times you can't feel anymore

Trying to find happiness, I found it in you

Gave you it all and you break me in two

Broke and confused like I got nothing to lose

I don't choose to feel for someone, I just do

I don't choose to get over it, I get through

Built myself up and that was through you

Gave you more than my all

On my knees and I'ma call

But still picked up your calls

Though to me, you don't mean nothing at all

I don't mean you mean nothing at all

So many things that I will never get out of my head I could write an endless letter

Tired of writing, you tore me apart when a wolf who put me together

See I don't know what I would write, what I could say, none of this ever comes easily

I could write you the cheesiest lines but never come close to what you really mean to me

What do you see in me?

I could feel that I'm close but I'm lost on where to go, I'm just scared what it's gon' be like

But however it goes as you are holding me close I can tell what the future feels like

Like that day on that bridge, where we laughed and we kissed, I still see the moments still burning inside

Even with the pain and the bliss when the stress really hits you are the compass defining my mind

Feels like I'm climbing, I'm climbing

I look at my parents their dreams are so hallow

Mom could have had her liquor, we bickershe taught me straight from the bottle

She's better, and healthy and sleeping

Told to me to chase all the things that I'm dreaming

Give her the house she wants, all the money she needs

I'ma grow her the Garden of Eden

Running out of time, I've got nothing to waste

My own producer started to lose faith

Now my close friends are turning two faced, to face with two ways that go broke or get paid

Sitting at work, take a look at yourself

Your life is scheduled by somebody else

Your dreams and views are not something that you choose

But you swallow your two's because a check really helps

Living my life that will never be me

Look out your windows and maybe you'll see

The things that you dream of, the things that you can do, the things that you crave for, the things you could be

So find what you love and don't ever desert it

You find what you're worth from the purpose inside

Living in a time with these kids are uncertain

It's eat or be eaten, the hungry survive

Losing my patience with dollars in times

I'm unwinding my heart with these lines that I write

If you're losing your mind, you can jump into mine

Let me open your eyes to a world that is blind

This is a mistake that I'm glad that I've made it

Step into my shoes or don't judge where I've been

Just look into my eyes and I'll tell you I'll make it

The way to your dream is the life within
