DAY BY DAY Emotional Rap Remix11/20
- Taigen
- [Intro –0:00–0:13]
- (Yeah, yeah)
- I've been fighting with my mind lately,
- Trying not to let the pain change me,
- Every night, another memory,
- Day by day, I'm finding what's left of me.
- [Chorus –0:13–0:40]
- Day by day, I'm tryna find my way,
- Heart full of scars that won't fade away,
- Smile on my face, but I'm hiding pain,
- Sun comes out, still I'm stuck in rain.
- Day by day, I keep losing sleep,
- Promises made that nobody keeps,
- I gave my heart, they left it in pieces,
- Still got faith, gotta find my reasons.
- [Verse 1 –0:40–1:15]
- Waking up, another battle with my thoughts,
- Thinking 'bout the people and the love that I lost,
- Everybody says that healing takes time,
- But the clock keeps ticking while I'm losing my mind.
- I've been looking for peace in a world so cold,
- Young heart hurting with an old man's soul,
- Used to have dreams that were bigger than life,
- Now I'm just praying I can make it through the night.
- I don't trust easy, I've been burned before,
- People say forever, then they walk out the door,
- Got a couple real ones, I don't need a crowd,
- They the only reason I ain't breaking down.
- Mama told me storms never last forever,
- So I keep my head up through the rainy weather.
- [Chorus –1:15–1:42]
- Day by day, I'm tryna find my way,
- Heart full of scars that won't fade away,
- Smile on my face, but I'm hiding pain,
- Sun comes out, still I'm stuck in rain.
- Day by day, I keep losing sleep,
- Promises made that nobody keeps,
- I gave my heart, they left it in pieces,
- Still got faith, gotta find my reasons.
- [Verse 2 –1:42–2:17]
- I've been down bad, but I still stand tall,
- Had a hundred bad days, still survived 'em all,
- I remember being broke with a pocket full of dreams,
- Now I'm chasing better days, nothing's what it seems.
- They don't see the nights when I'm fighting these tears,
- They just see the smile, never notice my fears,
- I've been carrying weight that I never deserved,
- Trying to heal from the things that I never spoke words.
- Every scar on my heart got a story to tell,
- I've been walking through heaven while escaping my hell,
- If tomorrow ain't perfect, that's okay with me,
- Long as I wake up, got another chance to breathe.
- I ain't where I wanna be, but I'm on my way,
- Taking life one breath, one day by day.
- [Final Chorus –2:17–2:44]
- Day by day, I'm tryna find my way,
- Heart full of scars that won't fade away,
- Smile on my face, but I'm hiding pain,
- Sun comes out, still I'm stuck in rain.
- Day by day, I keep losing sleep,
- But I won't let the darkness bury my dreams,
- I gave my heart, they left it in pieces,
- Now I'm learning how to love myself through the seasons.
- [Outro –2:44–2:49]
- (Yeah, yeah...)
- One breath, one step...
- Day by day...
