Thinking of times before we met The darkness that I lived in The path I'd walk after a hard day's work When the nightlife earnings began Anger in my blood Revenge inside my chest Looking for a reason Never looking for rest Moving weight BnE's Kicking doors collecting debts Chasing down the names on the LiST Living with a head full threats Any crime if planned right In and out within the time Thought I had it figured out Never cared what was wrong or right Or if I'd crossed the line Forever grateful for that night You opened up the door for me Without your help I know exactly where I'd be Handcuffed thrown in a cell Stuck behind the wire Watching life through cyclone diamonds and razor screens walking the yard Wearing them prison greens I won't throw blame, wont ask why You had your reasons to extinguish our flame Because of you and what we raised I'm still standing On the right side ,Outta the hustle Outta the game From those early suburban streets Hanging lights Black dress Neither you nor I knew How much life was waiting there Queensland dirt roads Laughing when you hit the ditch Water fights and stupid moments Funny how memory works Smoke in my eyes while playing Call of Duty Trying hard to break my focus Back then all those little things Felt like they would last forever Until our last breaths You gave me something different A future I could see For the first time in a long while I could see a better path for me Maybe that's why this hurts Maybe that's what cuts so deep Because you weren't just someone I loved You were someone who believed When the whole world saw a problem You saw something worth the fight And I'll always carry that with me Long after we say goodbye [Final Chorus] Forever grateful for that night You opened up the door for me Without your help I know exactly Where I'd be Handcuffed thrown in a cell Stuck behind the wire Watching life through cyclone diamonds and razor screens walking the yard Wearing prison greens No matter where the road goes No matter what comes next I won't forget who helped me climb Out of that wreck I won't throw blame And I won't forget the debt You're the reason I'm still standing On the right side of the fence [Outro] Forever grateful for that night You opened up the door for me And no matter where life takes me I'll remember what you gave to me A place to lay my head and finally get some rest
