I've been in the rain where it never shines Even though it's pain, saints never die I pray for better days and for better times When problems in my way I won't step aside I'ma stand strong I get involved with these songs and I'm hands on You do me wrong and that's your fault that's your damn loss Was trying to help you win it all but now the plan's off I built myself to be the man I am now Okay these memories don't live like people do When they write them history books What they gonna say about me and you? You gotta watch the way you talk You gotta watch the way they move Might not hear no crazy stories about me but at least they're true Got some people in my life that I ain't called in way too long I'm out of reasons I can't tell you what I'm waiting on Make that left, I made that right but that don't make it wrong Don't know how to make it right so I'm just trying to make these songs They be trying to keep me calm My Granny used to try to read me Psalms I just burned a new leaf boy I've been trying to keep me gone I really wish you would have listened to what I be speaking on Girl, I got issues with commitment I ain't trying to lead you on And these sentences I've written might have saved me Look what they gave me But if I told you everything, you'd look at me crazy So when you tell me open up Know it's just a war zone inside of me but look what it made me And I couldn't tell you what this life is I've been leaning on my vices Look what the price is Living with the things that I did, sacrifices It's been weighing on me Please don't waste your time if you've been praying for me Doing what it takes to survive Hope I never see the day I push my faith to the side But for right now, I'ma put my face to the sky Cause the one thing I do know is saints never die I've been in the rain where it never shines Even though it's pain, saints never die I pray for better days and for better times When problems in my way I won't step aside I'ma stand strong I get involved with these songs and I'm hands on You do me wrong and that's your fault that's your damn loss Was trying to help you win it all but now the plan's off I built myself to be the man I am now
