Fight 4 Me

[Intro — low, distant] Yeah… You ever get tired of being the strong one? Like… What happens when you need somebody else to hold you up? [Verse 1] I don’t need somebody saying they care I need somebody still standing when it’s hard to be there When the mask falls off When the lights get low When the thoughts get loud And I lose control I don’t need saving I know I’m complicated I know every scar got a story attached to it But I need somebody who don’t hesitate When my worst days show up at my face That kind of love that don’t run from the storm Don’t call me broken when I’m hard to hold That kind of love that can see through the noise And remind me I’m still somebody worth choosing [Pre-Chorus] Ever want somebody just to choose you first? Even on your best days even at your worst Ever want a promise that don’t feel rehearsed? I just want a love that can handle my curse [Chorus] Would you fight for me Like I fight these thoughts in my head each night Would you stay with me When I’m losing myself and I’m losing the light Would you hold me close When I’m pushing away Would you hear what I mean When I don’t know what to say Would you fight for me Or just wait until I’m gone? Fight for me Tell me I’m still worth holding on [Verse 2 — Rap] I got a habit of assuming the worst Every goodbye’s taught me what it’s worth Everybody loves you when you’re easy to love Till you show the parts that you hide from the sun I don’t need a hero I don’t need a saint I need somebody who can handle my weight Cause I built these walls with my bare hands Now I’m scared somebody might understand And that’s the part that nobody sees I’m not scared you’ll leave I’m scared you’ll stay long enough to see everything underneath I got ghosts in the room I got wars in my head Got a thousand little things that I never even said I push people away Then I beg them to stay Cause I’m terrified Of being abandoned again [Bridge — glitch / breakdown] Y-yeah… Would you fight? Or would you leave? I’m like— St-stay… (Stay…) Please don’t go (Don’t go) Words won’t show I’m… Tongue tied Throats tight Heart gli-gli-glitch G-gasping for air You say “calm down” But will you stay there? [Pre-Chorus - Half-Time] Ever want somebody just to choose you first? Even when the cracks show even when it hurts Ever want a promise that don’t turn to dust? I just want a love that can handle us Tell me please [Final Chorus] Would you fight for me Like I fight these thoughts in my head each night Would you stay with me When I’m losing myself and I’m losing the light Would you hold me close When I’m pushing away Would you hear what I mean When I don’t know what to say Would you fight for me Or just wait until I’m gone? Fight for me Tell me I’m still worth holding on [Outro - spoken] I been looking for a love like that… The kind that stays when I’m hard to understand. The kind that sees the worst parts of me… And still reaches for my hand. Cause I’m always ready to protect what I call mine… But who’s gonna fight for me… When I’m losing the fight?
