[Intro] Yeah… Some nights I still cry when nobody lookin’ Bible on the dresser, but my soul still shooken Lord… where You at? I’m tired… [Verse 1] I’m a man in the dark with a hole in my chest Tryna fight these demons while I’m over-stressed Everybody see smiles, they don’t see the pain Don’t nobody hear the thunder when it never rain I was raised to be strong, never show no tears Now I’m battlin’ depression, anxiety, fears Got kids lookin’ at me like a superhero But inside I feel broken down to zero Late nights, cold floor, head in my hands Ask God why He let me turn into this man Bills overdue, heart full of scars Still prayin’ to Heaven from a broke-down car I done lost friends, lost hope, lost peace Sometimes I feel death walkin’ right beside me But I still hear a voice when I’m losin’ my sight Sayin’, “Son, keep walkin’, I’m still your light” [Chorus] I’m just a man in the dark Tryna find where You are Every road got scars But Your love reaches far When I can’t see the light And my faith falls apart You still call my name A man in the dark [Verse 2] I remember nights I was angry at God Like “Why You make life gotta hit this hard?” Seen mama cry, seen family leave Seen fake love turn into enemies I was drownin’ in sin, drownin’ in lust Put my faith in people and they turned to dust Had a bottle in my hand, pain in my soul Tryna fill empty spaces that only God know The devil kept whisperin’, “You ain’t enough” “Real men don’t break, real men stay tough” But Jesus was close every time I fell Even when my whole life felt like hell Grace picked me up when I couldn’t stand Nails in His wrists with my name in His hands Now I know why the enemy wanted me dead ’Cause God put a purpose inside my head [Chorus] I’m just a man in the dark Tryna find where You are Every road got scars But Your love reaches far When I can’t see the light And my faith falls apart You still call my name A man in the dark [Bridge] Even in the shadows, You never left me Even when I doubted, You still kept me I was too blind to see The whole time You was carryin’ me [Verse 3] Now I pray for the men who suffer in silence Who smile all day but fight inner violence The fathers who hurt, the sons who lost hope The ones one bad day from lettin’ go God told me speak, so I’m speakin’ the truth You don’t gotta die just to prove you tough, dude Christ still heals, Christ still saves Even broken men can be unashamed So if you hear this song and you feel alone Know the Shepherd still searchin’ for the lost soul And the dark don’t last when the Son arise God can rebuild what the pain destroyed [Outro] Yeah… A man in the dark… Still prayin’… Still fightin’… Still holdin’ onto God… And maybe that’s enough tonight.
