Ooh, ooh
Still I rise, oh, mm, yeah
Late nights, cold heart
I been down, I been lost, aye, aye
I gave you my soul, you gave me scars
I put you first, you left me in the dark
Promised forever, you changed your mind
Now I'm alone with these thoughts at night
I was praying for love, but love ran away
Smiling in public, crying everyday
Friends say: Move on, but they don't know
How deep this pain really go
So I pour another drink in my cup
Tell myself man up, be tough
But the liquor no dey heal my soul
Only make the nights more cold
I tried to drink the pain away
But the pain still call my name
Every bottle just remind me
Of the love I couldn't save
I was lost, I was broken
Heart empty, soul shaken
Then I found God on my knees
Now my life no be the same
Yeah, no be the same
Club lights flashing, but I feel alone
Surrounded by people, still on my own
Posting smiles for the world to see
But deep inside, I no get peace
I been chasing love in the wrong place
Trusting humans with fragile faith
I learned the hard way, tears don't teach me
Not every heart meant to keep me
When I hit the floor, nobody stayed
Only God hear the prayers I prayed
I said Lord, I'm tired of the fight
He said my child, you'll be alright, alright
I tried to drink the pain away
But the pain no fade with champagne
I gave my heart back to the Lord
Now I'm healing day by day
I was lost, now I'm chosen
Chains broken, hope open
If love break you one more time
I swear God go hold you down
Hold you down, yeah, yeah
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da, hold you down, yeah
No more bottles on my table
I found peace, I found favor
From heartbreak to grace
I'm walking a different way
