Brian k roberts 1971

trap, cinematic/emotional hip-hop, dark melodic beat

One day at a time, yeah I’m learning how to breathe  
Prayin’ God keep a shield around the ones I need  
If you hear me, I’m still here, I ain’t turned my back on you  
From Columbus to the struggle, I’m just tryna make it through

[VERSE 1]
Tonight I got that call, came through Jackie’s phone  
Hearing my son’s voice, man it hit me to the bone  
He asked me where I’m at, what rehab I’m inside  
I told him I’m still fighting, still tryna stay alive

That moment felt real, like time just stood still  
When you love somebody deep, you know exactly how it feel  
Addiction in the family, it don’t pick and choose  
It’ll take your joy, your peace, leave you with nothing to lose

But I told him I’m proud, I’m still standing up  
Even when I fall down, I keep filling my cup  
Of hope, of faith, of something better than before  
I ain’t perfect, I just learned I can’t live like I did before

And I saw Jackie too, I thank her for the grace  
Let me use that phone line just to hear my son’s face  
It don’t take much to heal a heart that’s been broke  
Just a few real words, just a little bit of hope

[VERSE 2]
I know you still struggling, I see it in your fight  
Thomas and Summer, I been thinking every night  
I know it ain’t easy just to walk through that door  
But staying in the same cycle only hurts you more

Rehab ain’t a prison, it’s a way to be free  
It’s a chance to find the person you were born to be  
I been on that edge, I been deep in that storm  
But I learned even broken hearts can still be reborn

I heard there’s places here in Columbus that can help  
Even couples going through it, they don’t do it by themselves  
You can walk it together, side by side, day by day  
Instead of letting addiction take everything away

I’m not preaching, I’m just speaking from the truth  
From somebody who was lost, now I’m trying to break through  
And I still got love, I still got prayers in my chest  
For anybody out here trying to do their best

[VERSE 3]
I’m doing better now, I’m picking up my soul  
Learning how to heal, learning how to grow  
It ain’t overnight, it’s a slow steady climb  
But every step I take is me reclaiming my mind

I still think about the past, but I don’t live there no more  
I don’t let it drag me back like it did before  
I got people I love, I got reasons to stay  
And I pray every night I don’t lose my way

To my son, I want you to know I’m still here  
Even when life gets dark, even when it’s unclear  
You’re not alone in this fight, I feel what you feel  
But I promise there’s a future that is actually real

And when I get stronger, I’m coming back through  
Not broken, not lost, but a better version of truth  
I love you all deeply, that will never change  
Even through all the chaos and the pain and the rain

[HOOK – OUTRO]
I been down, I been lost, I been fighting through the pain  
But I still see love even when it’s pouring rain  
To my son, to my people, I ain’t never walked away  
I’m just tryna find the light in another better day
