"LET ME CARRY SOME OF IT” AI Artist: Marcus Hill Response to “I’M UNDER PRESSURE” by Rashon Written by 12Gauge858 12Gauge858 Music 🎬 INTRO I heard you the first time… Even when you smiled and said you was okay. Strong people got a dangerous habit… They suffer beautifully. And the scary part is… most people clap for the strength… without noticing the damage. So tonight… you ain’t carrying all this alone. VERSE 1 You been tired in your spirit lately Still getting up like nothing breaking Cooking dinner with tears in your eyes Still answering everybody on time I noticed silence inside your laugh That “I’m good” coming out too fast Even your hugs feel halfway gone Like your soul trying hold on Bills stacked up on the counter edge Whole world hanging off your chest And somehow you still show love When you barely got any left Phone light glowing all through the night Mind won’t stop even after midnight You say you resting but your body tense Like peace don’t even make sense 🌑 PRE-CHORUS And I know… You don’t wanna feel weak So you carry it quietly (background hums) But heavy hearts still need arms too… CHORUS LET ME CARRYYYY SOME OF ITTTTT… (before you break down alone…) You keep fighting every single day Giving everybody pieces till nothing remain Still standing while your soul exhausted Trying survive while life keep talking LET ME CARRYYYY SOME OF ITTTTT… (you don’t gotta hide no more…) Stress, anxiety, pressure deep Even strong hearts eventually bleed So tonight just breathe for me And let me carry some of it… (background choir) Carry… Carry… (stereo whispers) “rest now…” “I got you…” VERSE 2 You apologize every time you rest Like slowing down means failure somehow Meanwhile your mind been screaming loud But nobody really asked you how So used to being everybody strength You forgot what support feels like Forgot what it mean to sit still Without survival in your eyes Some people only love what you provide Not realizing pressure live inside You became dependable to everybody While emotionally starving quietly And I hate knowing you cry alone Water running so nobody know Then walk back out pretending fine While panic racing through your mind I wish I could silence every fear Every voice making you disappear But until healing fully reaches you… I’ll sit right here. 🌑 PRE-CHORUS 2 You deserve softness too… Not just responsibility. (background choir humming warmly) Even warriors need somewhere safe to lay their armor down. CHORUS 2 LET ME CARRYYYY SOME OF ITTTTT… (before your light burns out…) You been surviving on empty sleep Trying stay strong for everybody needs But pain get heavy when ignored too long Even strong souls get overwhelmed LET ME CARRYYYY SOME OF ITTTTT… (come closer…) Stress, pressure, anxiety None of that make you weak to me You ain’t gotta do this silently Let me carry some of it… (choir swells larger) Carry… Carry… BRIDGE — STRIPPED DOWN (piano almost alone) You don’t gotta earn rest… (pause) You deserve it already. (tears in voice) And if all you did today… was survive… Then I’m proud of you. (long silence) The world keeps rewarding people for how much pain they can hide. But healing starts… when somebody finally says… “You can put it down now.” FINAL CHORUS LET ME CARRYYYY SOME OF ITTTTT… (before you lose yourself tonight…) You been carrying everybody weight Smiling through emotional earthquakes Still loving through your own collapse Trying survive constant panic attacks LET ME CARRYYYY SOME OF ITTTTT… (please don’t disappear…) Pressure, stress, anxiety None of that changes what you mean to me So lean your exhausted heart on me And let me carry some of it… (background layered choir) “breathe…” “slow down…” “you’re human too…” 🌑 OUTRO Marcus Hill (spoken softly) The strongest people… usually been surviving too long without help. (pause) Rest now.
