Lyrics:

And oh what a life to live
When you’re dying for someone to give
To give you their love
To give you their love

Lie awake stargazing
I won’t sleep til morning
Echoes of your words sayin’
Don’t write a song for me
Everything is wrong in me
Raised under wings of demons and
Even if God’s with me
Without you I have no reason
This’ll be the last time you hear me say sorry
That’ll be the last tear you waste on me crying
I broke this home
And just like my father I’ll die alone

And oh what a life to live
When you’re dying for someone to give
To give you their love
To give you their love

I’m
Lookin’ at the kids’ faces
Sittin’ in the driveway while I
Pack up suitcases
I just ruined their holiday
And lies don’t die they grow
And everything you try to hide eventually shows
The beast killed the beauty
The last petal fell from the rose
And I loved you truly
That’s why it’s hard to let it go
I broke this home
But I’ll change for our daughter so she’s not alone

Oh what a life to live
When you’re dying for someone to give
To give you their love
To give you their love

And oh what a life to live
(Oh what a life to live)
When you’re dying for someone to give
(When you’re dying)
To give you their love
(To give you their love)
To give you their love
(Mmm)

I wrote this in room three spending’
Christmas in rehabilitation I got
No phone just a cell that I’m trapped in while my home’s vacant
I’m an inpatient but I lost patience I just broke something but I’m fixated
On the gossip that I know is happenin’ while I’m just being left out of the conversation
It’s a complicated relationship that’s nobody’s business but I’m in this business face it
I’ve been hiding from the ideation that the public has of ruinin’ my reputation
And it’s
Crazy seeing quotations from a source that somebody curated
Cause for me y’all can feel pure hatred but just keep our baby out the situation
It’s a
Long road to redemption and a shorter one to damnation
I know which one is my destination but the journey doesn’t come without the frustrations
Like it doesn’t come without the temptations
And failure can lead to an elevation
Cause sometimes you gotta see what’s waiting on the other side to know your soul’s worth savin’

And oh what a life to live
When you’re dying for someone to give
To give you their love
To give you their love
