Step Dad

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When you came at a dark time I guess you didn't know Maybe that's love, or maybe that's just life You never came first Me, him and her, and you in the back light Can't imagine how it hurts Tryna be a dad, like, tryna be the man, right? Watching us fall, watching us cry, watching us conquer Trying not to bleed, picking up the pieces left by a monster So, how does it feel, giving it your all But it's only getting harder? Push away 'cause I don't need a father Please stay 'cause I really need a father (Father, oh) [Pre-Chorus] I remember the night that you came Remеmber the way that it changed Evеrything, all that you saved Mama was never so brave You made a home of our place Together, you helped us escape All of the love that you gave All of the love you replaced All of the loving that I never thought I'd embrace [Chorus] It's always been you (It's always been you) It's only been you (It's only been you) It's always been you (It's always been you) It's only been you (It's only been you) It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you [Verse 2] So, as I've grown up I see the man I am, I see the man he is, see a man I love Based on one who doesn't even know he raised me up I hope I can show, shot to the gut, drenched in the flood When all is said and done You'll always have my love I know I'm not a part of you But what's blood? You love me in a way, that's deeper in these veins Than blood could ever stain And that's where you'll remain [Pre-Chorus] Remember the night that you came? Remember the way that it changed Everything, all that you saved? Mama was never so brave You made a home of our place Together, you helped us escape All of the love that you gave All of the love you replaced All of the loving that I never thought I'd embrace [Chorus] It's always been you (It's always been you) It's only been you (It's only been you) It's always been you (It's always been you) It's only been you (It's only been you) It's always been you, it's always been you [Outro] Always been you Whenever I'm lost, whenever I'm down and I'm needing Whenever I'm crying, whenever I'm broke and on my knees, and Whenever I'm hurt, whenever I'm scared and I'm bleeding It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you Whenever I'm fighting, whenever I'm a fool and I'm needing Whenever the night takes me back and I'm weeping Whenever I'm cautious, too much of a demon It's always been you, it's always been you, it's always been you
