[Verse]
N.C.
I fell in love with the crooked truth
N.C.
One that I felt like I had to prove
Like I could handle the presG#msure, on my F#own
Except I never Edo
But I put on a fancy sBhow
When I'm caught in the undertow
To hide when it's showG#ming, this pride that I'm holF#ding
I can't let it Ego
N.C.
Even though
N.C.
I cannot do this alone
[Chorus]

{Verse 2}
I still remember what my moBther said
When I was younger, I won't forget
She sat down me and my brG#mother
Said, "Look out for each oF#ther"
And we always dEid
Well later on then I met a gBirl
The true companion I found in her
I never wanted anG#mother
So I tell her I love F#her
And I always wEill
N.C.
She needs to know that
N.C.
I cannot do this alone

{Verse 3}
I need somebody who knows my Ename
To shine a light on the daF#rker days
Don't ever let me gBo
Don't ever let me go
Brother, don't let me foErget the truth
But then come after F#me if I do
Don't let me walk awBay
