Day 26 -- If It Wasn't For You




I could be homeless go'na sleep, on the concrete
Panhandlin, tryna get change for what I need
Or lookin for a bridge when my cardboard gets soggy
So I could stay dry
I could be losing my mind with nobody to talk to
Lookin in the mirror tryna figure out what's true
When I had no direction
You showed me more than my reflection

When it rains, it pours, when life's a chore
And I just can't take no more
When everywhere's a closing door
You're the one I'm looking for

If it wasn't for you
I'd be living a lie thinking what's wrong was right
If it wasn't for you
I'd be serving time in prison in my own mind
If it wasn't for you
I'd be out in these street tryna find a way to make ends meet
If it wasn't for you
I gotta thank you
If it wasn't for you

Every day is a struggle to wake up
Living with the stress in my life that builds up
It's like a mountain too high to climb up
If something's at the top, does anybody know what
Cuz I don't know, it's such a long road

For every step I've taken I wanna thank you
For never leading me wrong

When it rains, it pours, when life's a chore
And I just can't take no more
When everywhere's a closing door
You're the one I'm looking for

If it wasn't for you
I'd be living a lie thinking what's wrong was right
If it wasn't for you
I'd be serving time in prison in my own mind
If it wasn't for you
I'd be out on these street tryna find a way to make ends meet
If it wasn't for you
I wanna thank you
If it wasn't for you

I probably wouldn't know what I know now
Probably wouldn't be where I am now
You found a part of me that I never knew about
You gave me hope when in doubt, yeah
And I thank you for everything you've done for me, hey
And now I see it's because of you

If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you

Where would I go without you?
