[Chorus]
We've been here since Sunday died
Eyes closed, I never pray for the heights
Tough past but nothing we never made it through
Tell that young me, yeah, I'm still with you
So keep running, don't stop yo, keep running
I've been nothing, being something filled somebody's soul
And I keep running, stay fronting, the pain is numbing
The war here is pure, I swear I can hear you calling

[Verse]
And she's new to the city
Running from a couple milli
Got a voice like Whitney Houston
And she don't wanna tell me where she came from
Yeah, she said she wants to leave it all behind
I told her I got nothing, she said that's a lie
She's afraid to show me her feelings
If I'm honest, if I'm honest
We go through the same
(Sample)
And I been here before
I can't make the same mistakes with you
You're so afraid to, so afraid to
So selfishly
You see these words don't fit between these lines
My I's are too big
Brother slipping for retail
Grabbing apples for females
All that shit plays out when the bank's too big
Yeah, it's all games until the boy can't quit
Back by the stream on my own
Stone after stone
But none of them gon' make it
Clone after clone
See, I always kept it real
More money, more snakes
She took on the world
But this mirror she couldn't face
Time's passing me by
What it costs to feel alive
More money till you blind
You got four, I want five
And I'm better than I was
I bet she'd call that showing off
They ain't with us, they against us
Sometimes I need to feel lost
I told you I don't want the fame
Lyrics for a face
Tell me what really fucking changed
Apart from how you say my name
Been on the right side of your life
Every fucking time
But in your eyes I saw a mountain
And I wasn't ready to climb

[Bridge]
This song don't have an end
How much time you spend on that money though
You're so afraid to let it go
But you ain't lived in a year or two
And maybe we should talk about it
ATO, are you're still there?
I ain't never left you
You're always on my mind, I can't forget you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
We've been here since Sunday died
Eyes closed I never prayed for the heights
Tough past but nothing we never made it through
Tell that young me, yeah, I'm still with you
So keep running, don't stop yo, keep running
I've been nothing
Being something filled somebody's soul
And I keep running, stay fronting, the pain is numbing
The water here is pure
I swear I can hear you calling

[Outro]
I heard you like to pray
Heard you like to pray
Heard you learned to pray for me
We've been here since Sunday died
Feel alive
