Crawled Out Concrete

Songtext

[Verse 1] Had a baby, body broke, doc said “take these, you’ll be fine,” Couple pills turned to comfort, comfort turned to overtime. I was tryna heal, tryna breathe, tryna stand on two feet, But addiction don’t knock — it kicks the door in when you’re weak. Bottle ran low, mind ran wild, I was chasing that relief, Didn’t know that little script would try to bury me beneath. I fell through the cracks, but I crawled out the concrete, Life hit me dirty, but it never got to stop me. [Pre-Chorus] Lost damn near everything, Still I heard my name in the dark, Hands shook, heart cracked, But I was still here from the start. [Chorus] Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, Took my pain and made it mine. Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, I’m still standing, still alive. (still alive) Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, I was buried, but I broke through. Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, Baby, look at what I came through. (what I came through) [Verse 2] There were mornings I could taste the shame before I made the bed, Hallways full of silence, every promise in my head. I was lying to my mother, lying to myself, too, Saying “just one more day” like that day would carry me through. But the mirror never flinched, it just showed me what was real, Every scar, every stumble, every desperate wound to heal. Then my child reached for my hand like I was still somebody’s home, That tiny grip turned the storm around and led me back alone. [Pre-Chorus] Lost damn near everything, Still I heard my name in the dark, Hands shook, heart cracked, But I was still here from the start. [Chorus] Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, Took my pain and made it mine. Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, I’m still standing, still alive. (still alive) Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, I was buried, but I broke through. Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, Baby, look at what I came through. (what I came through) [Bridge] If you’re down in it now, I know that corner well, I know the pills, the lies, the nights you never tell. But you are not your worst day, you are not that chain, You can lose the whole world and still rise up again. [Final Chorus] Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, Took my pain and made it mine. Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, I’m still standing, still alive. (still alive) Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, I was buried, but I broke through. Crawled out concrete, crawled out concrete, Baby, look at what I came through. (what I came through)
