Neon Force - Better Days (FCFll)

[Verse 1] Clocked out for the last time, didn’t get to say goodbye Twenty-five years fading like a flicker in the light Familiar faces turning into memories overnight And I’m standing in the silence, trying hard not to break inside They took more than a paycheck, took a piece of who I was Left me feeling empty, questioning what I’ve become Every word they said still echoes like a loaded gun Yeah, I walked away breathing, but I swear I came undone [Pre-Chorus] I was compromised, I was barely holding on Emotionally wrecked, didn’t know where I belonged Felt weak, felt lost, like the ground was gone beneath But I hear your voices calling me back to my feet [Chorus] Now I’m stronger than I was, I’m rising from the fall Got your love to guide me, I won’t break at all For my fiancée and my children, you’re my reason why You’re the fire in my chest, you’re the strength inside Yeah, my family comes first, you’re my everything Through the darkest nights, you’re my light, my meaning I lost myself for a moment, but I found my way And I swear I’ll give you better days [Verse 2] I remember all the laughter in those aisles and empty halls Every “how you doing?” that meant something after all Now it’s ghosts of conversations bouncing off the walls And I’m trying to rebuild from the pieces that I lost I was drowning in the pressure, every thought a heavy weight Let them see me broken, let them think I couldn’t take But they don’t know the promise that I’m making here today I’ll turn every scar I carry into something that won’t fade [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I was compromised, I was sinking in the pain Emotionally shattered, couldn’t recognize my name But I see your faces, and it pulls me through the storm Gives me something stronger than I’ve ever known before [Chorus] Now I’m stronger than I was, I’m rising from the fall Got your love to guide me, I won’t break at all For my fiancée and my children, you’re my reason why You’re the fire in my chest, you’re the strength inside Yeah, my family comes first, you’re my everything Through the darkest nights, you’re my light, my meaning I lost myself for a moment, but I found my way And I swear I’ll give you better days [Bridge] I won’t let this define me, I won’t let it steal my name Every tear, every scar, every ounce of pain I’ll turn it into power, I’ll turn it into drive For the ones I love the most, I’ll rebuild this life [Final Chorus] Now I’m stronger than I was, yeah I’m more than what they see Got a fire burning deep that they could never take from me For my fiancée and my children, you’re my heart, my soul You’re the reason I keep fighting, you’re what makes me whole Yeah, my family comes first, that’s a promise I’ll defend Through every high and low, I’ll be there ‘til the end I was broken, I was lost, but I found my way And I swear I’ll give you better days
