| My momma told me not to cry
|
| Gotta beam myself up when I’m down
|
| Follow my name in the flashing lights
|
| Those flashing lights
|
| Where I belong (x2)
|
| (Verse 1): David Correy
|
| So is the tale of the struggle
|
| A go getter, young hustler
|
| A couple bucks in his pocket
|
| Both hands on The Bible
|
| Praying for revival
|
| Seen the ups, seen the downs tryna come back around full circle
|
| He saw enough to find a way
|
| Even harder to just fight just to get through every day
|
| It’s a hard knock life for us (x2)
|
| No matter what it takes, please show, show me the way
|
| It’s a cold world
|
| It’s a hard knock life for us (x2)
|
| I’m going home everyday, but I need you cause…
|
| (Chorus 2): David Correy
|
| Really wanna go there, but I’m heading fast nowhere
|
| Feeling like I’m hanging on
|
| What’s it gonna take to feel strong
|
| Know I need to go there
|
| Through the rain & the fire
|
| What’s it gonna take to know that I’m all I need to breathe
|
| (Chorus 1): David Correy
|
| My momma told me not to cry
|
| Gotta beam myself up when I’m down
|
| Follow my name in the flashy lights
|
| Those flashy lights
|
| Where I belong (x2)
|
| (Verse 2): Locksmith
|
| And I can still remember the moments when you would smile at me
|
| How could I pretend for a moment that there’s a side of me
|
| Doesn’t wish that I was there with you
|
| Lady I miss you
|
| You’re an angel so you’re hanging where you were meant to
|
| I’m living and taking my life to new heights, that’s the reason it stings
|
| Feeling worthless, you gave me purpose
|
| You believed in my dreams
|
| I’m thinking back to when I rapped with friends
|
| You would let us use your garage to get our practice in, see
|
| I know life’s hard on us, just hold on tight, don’t rush
|
| Is what you told me as I snickered with my homies
|
| Thinking we know it all, there was so much more you would show me
|
| If I open up my heart, then my blessins come
|
| You fall short, that’s the part where you learn your lessons from (I know)
|
| You can’t expect to win them all, but I know you’re there to catch me when I
|
| fall
|
| (Chorus 2): David Correy
|
| Really wanna go there, but I’m heading fast nowhere
|
| Feeling like I’m hanging on
|
| What’s it gonna take to feel strong
|
| Know I need to go there
|
| Through the rain & the fire
|
| What’s it gonna take to know that I’m all I need to breathe
|
| Oh somewhere out there
|
| There’s a star with your name on it
|
| You got fight hard if you want the world to see
|
| (Chorus 1): David Correy
|
| My momma told me not to cry
|
| Gotta beam myself up when I’m down
|
| Follow my name in the flashy lights
|
| Those flashy lights
|
| Where I belong
|
| (Chorus 2): David Correy
|
| Really wanna go there, but I’m heading fast nowhere
|
| Feeling like I’m hanging on
|
| What’s it gonna take to feel strong
|
| Know I need to go there
|
| Through the rain & the fire
|
| What’s it gonna take to know that I’m all I need to breathe
|
| (Chorus 1): David Correy
|
| My momma told me not to cry
|
| Gotta beam myself up when I’m down
|
| Follow my name in the flashy lights
|
| Those flashy lights
|
| Where I belong (x2) |
