Versus

Tonight, sis, I needed to confide
Sorry in advance if it hurts you
After the storm, the sky is clear
Now, I need to tell my story

How to tell you, bro, that deep down I knew
We're sharing everything tonight, but I was observing you
We crossed paths for the first time a few years ago
I never said it, but that day, you touched me

Who would've thought that one day, I'd tell you everything?
You need to know that I'm on the edge with us
I thank the heavens for putting you in my path
It was written, it was certain, it was destiny

You took my heartfelt words, enhanced my song
Anyone else would've done it, I would've turned the volume down
I was in my car, told to listen
From the first notes, I never told you, my tears flowed
I also have so much to confide in you
People only see what I want them to see

No one knows, but in this life, I disappoint myself so much
Maybe in another life, I'll truly own it

I'm the type to hide
When things go wrong, I can break everything
The Almighty has never let me down
Why am I afraid of ruining everything?
Sometimes I'm scared and I break down
Life has dealt me blows
Tell me, what's the point of hurting and then staying silent?
I'm the type to hide
When things go wrong, I can break everything
The Almighty has never let me down
Why am I afraid of ruining everything?
Sometimes I'm scared and I break down
Life has dealt me blows
Tell me, what's the point of hurting and then staying silent?

I've never had confidence in myself
I live in a life of doubts
And in the courtyard, I heard them belittle me
I don't give a damn about their game, I dream of taking a turn
They dream of glory, while at night, I dream of turning off the screen
I spend way too many sleepless nights, I know you see it

I have bloodshot eyes when things go wrong
When asked, I put on a show, the 'Salem to my buddy
But deep down, I'm so uncomfortable in my skin
Today, the night is my wife, my kid, and my mother
If you knew how many times I ended up alone on the ground
I drank everything, took everything, saw everything, said nothing
I screamed, I cried, to love, to life

I'm the type to hide
When things go wrong, I can break everything
The Almighty has never let me down
Why am I afraid of ruining everything?
Sometimes I'm scared and I break down
Life has dealt me blows
Tell me, what's the point of hurting and then staying silent?
I'm the type to hide
When things go wrong, I can break everything
The Almighty has never let me down
Why am I afraid of ruining everything?
Sometimes I'm scared and I break down
Life has dealt me blows
Tell me, what's the point of hurting and then staying silent?

If you knew how my mind explodes
How fast my heart beats when I lose control
How many times I wanted to stop everything
To throw it all away, to start over

So many people think I'm showing off
If you knew what I tell her five times a day
I'll end up leaving everything like Melanie
She's at peace, if you knew how much I envy her

I'm the type to hide
When things go wrong, I can break everything
The Almighty has never let me down
Why am I afraid of ruining everything?
Sometimes I'm scared and I break down
Life has dealt me blows
Tell me, what's the point of hurting and then staying silent?
I'm the type to hide
When things go wrong, I can break everything
The Almighty has never let me down
Why am I afraid of ruining everything?
Sometimes I'm scared and I break down
Life has dealt me blows
Tell me, what's the point of hurting and then staying silent?
