cody young - fade away lyrics
[chorus]
we’ve been sipping on the potion
we’ve been drinking, we’ve been smoking
we’ve been living in the moment
anything to take the pain away
they’ve been popping, they’ve been rolling
tryna [?] in the ocean
they’ve been praying, they’ve been hoping
we gon’ do it ’til it fades away
[verse 1]
yeah
sometimes i feel like this life is way more than i can bear
sometimes i feel like my struggles are more than i can share
sometimes i feel like if i was open and honest
then all those people would judge me
but i start to wonder why i care
why do i care about what all these random people thinking?
like, when i’m dealing with anxiety, i get to drinking
looking for hope at the end of an empty bottle
i’ve been drowning in the sorrow, i keep trying, but i keep on sinking
yeah, trying to swim, but i just keep on drowning
inside my thoughts, reaching for help, but noone cares around me
enough to reach out a hand to grab and pull me to land
man, i don’t think they understand the way i feel about it
man, i’d be lying if i told you that i never doubted
stuck in depression, man, my mind’s been feeling overcrowded
filled with these thoughts and i know [?]
but i don’t really know how to rid the pressure inside of me
so
[chorus]
we’ve been sipping on the potion
we’ve been drinking, we’ve been smoking
we’ve been living in the moment
anything to take the pain away
they’ve been popping, they’ve been rolling
tryna [?] in the ocean
they’ve been praying, they’ve been hoping
we gon’ do it ’til it fades away
[verse 2]
looking for heaven, i’ve been going through h-ll
i keep a smile on my face so ain’t n-body can tell
i’ve been carrying this weight for way too long and i fell
and as i’m dropping to my knees, i ask the lord for his help
i told him, “i don’t want my life, so you can take it
i filled myself with anything i could, and left me vacant
now i feel like i ain’t got no hope, and man, i hate it
now i feel like i ain’t got no future, what you’re saying?”
then he told me, “i love you just the way that you are
you ain’t gotta hide your pain or cover your scars
you were never hidden in the room for the people
you know that i can hear your voice and i can [tear you apart?]
you are not a number, you’re a face with a name
you are not a number or a product of pain
you are not a number, you’re my son, you have a purpose
you’re created in my image, you are made to be great
you are not the sum of your mistakes
you are not the burdens or the choices that you make
you are not defined by how these people wanna see you
if you’re feeling losses, take my hand and i will lead you
i will not forsake you, i will never hurt you
i just came to save you, i will not desert you
give me all your pain, all your shame, all your sin
i nailed it to the cross, so your new life could begin
so your new life could begin
