(Intro)

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

I always hoped for better

Maybe together you and me find

Baby, I know things'll get better

You'll find work and I'll get promoted

We'll move out of the shelter

Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

(Verse 1: Colicchie)

Listen, I always say that I been through worse

But there's been times in my life where that pain was a first

Yelling at the sky like "God am I cursed?"

Like "Why am I alive why am I not under dirt?"

All days amazed as I try to find a purpose

As I constantly investigate but only scratch the surface

I'm done taken now it's time to be a servant

Striving to be perfect it has always left me nervous

I know my worth, I know what I deserve

My grips gotta be firm when that tragedy does occur

And look I finally gotta taste of that thing I always wanted

And I'm the living definition of turnin nothin into somethin

That agony I know it all to well

I only thought about myself but in times I failed

I've been cut, crushed, and abandoned

Can't you tell?

I've been beat, broken, and battered I've been dragged through hell

(Interlude)

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

I always hoped for better

Maybe together you and me find

Baby, I know things'll get better

You'll find work and I'll get promoted

We'll move out of the shelter

Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

(Verse 2: Colicchie)

It's hard to have hope in the midst of a struggle

It's like I'm seeing all the pieces but they never fit the puzzle

I had to stay strong, had to fight, had to suckle

This whole last year I held on white knuckled

And I gotta be the change that I wanna see in others

I'm embracing every storm and look I never need a cover

My life's a mess with this organized clutter

She's gotta be special if I'm saying that I love her

If I said it then I meant it never lying

I said I find happiness or I would die trying

I never pay attention to all the grief that I felt

I don't need your approval to be alright with myself

No concern and just learnin from all my blunders

I don't need that validation like I did when I was younger

Thinking I can make it through this determined that I can do it

Provin I'm heroic through expression in my music

(Interlude)

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

I always hoped for better

Maybe together you and me find

Baby I know things'll get better

You'll find work and I'll get promoted

We'll move out of the shelter

Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

I had a feeling that I belonged

I had a feeling I could be someone

Be someone

Be someone

(Verse 3: Colicchie)

I remember when I didn't have a dollar to my name

Without a place to go drippin wet standin in the rain

I know things'll get better

They always do

But you gotta have faith that's a fact this is true

And this feeling that I got I admit it's been a while

It's important that I go to any length to make her smile

I always hoped for better

You gotta dream gotta chase it till you catch it

And nothin is what it seems

Thinking about my past all the dudes that I paid

No matter how lonely I get all I do is pay

I know things'll get better

I always pray I'm just fortunate to be alive and see another day

I can't call it quits cuz it's gettin rough

I'll do anything it takes before I'm givin up

I always hoped for better

So once again you gotta have hope, hold on pain ends

(Outro)

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

I always hoped for better

Maybe together you and me find

I know things'll get better

You'll find work and I'll get promoted

We'll move out of the shelter

Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
