Lyrics
Find another songI'm better sober, sober
Clear view in all my thoughts
Season's over, over
A million of blessings brought
Weatherin' the pain to cope
Hold me in close, I know
Sunny days are meant to come
'Cause rain don't ever last too long
Older now, all this weight is sittin' on my shoulders now
Days are longer and the nights are colder now
Gotta stay alert and keep it sober now
If I pull away, I'm fightin' gravity
I just wanna see my family proud of me
Faith undoubtedly this ain't lottery
I was focused on me more than God, that's a lot of me
If I don't fit in then I'll be fine, I'm an anomaly
Oh, take your time (take your time)
All of this don't happen overnight, oh-yeah
Don't get tired (don't get tired)
Better days are on the other side, oh-yeah
I'm better sober, sober
Clear view in all my thoughts
Season's over, over
A million of blessings brought
Weatherin' the pain to cope
Hold me in close, I know
Sunny days are meant to come
'Cause rain don't ever last too long
I had to think of somethin' real (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had to get it out the field (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had to dig deep and wake up (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had some demons to kill (yeah-yeah)
Weatherin' the pain to cope
Hold me in close, I know
Sunny days are meant to come
'Cause rain don't ever last too long
I heard that life should be a vibin' thing, not this violent thing
Been and winnin' lookin' for violet Spring
I was gettin' high off of pride, drinkin' lies and things
Tryna to cover my insecurity with shiny things
Too corrupted to see that I was beloved
Couldn't humble myself because I thought I was above it
So I layed down and died and to my surprise, I resurrected
No longer intoxicated with all this misdirection
They told me
Oh, take your time (take your time)
All of this don't happen overnight, oh-yeah (yeah)
Don't get tired (don't get tired)
Better days are on the other side, oh-yeah
I'm better sober (sober), sober
Clear view in all my thoughts
Season's over, over
A million of blessings brought
Weatherin' the pain to cope
Hold me in close, I know
Sunny days are meant to come
'Cause rain don't ever last too long
I had to think of somethin' real (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had to get it out the field (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had to dig deep and wake up (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had some demons to kill (yeah-yeah)
Weatherin' the pain to cope
Hold me in close, I know
Sunny days are meant to come
'Cause rain don't ever last too long
I had to think of somethin' real (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had to get it out the field (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had to dig deep and wake up (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I had some demons to kill (yeah-yeah)
