Leslie Odom Jr. - The Morning Lyrics

Leslie Odom Jr. Lyrics

"The Morning"

Dark times ahead
Is there light on the other side
I'm staring down a lonely road
There's someone that I need to know
I've been a mess
Hating myself for the fool I've been
Finding my worth in the lies I've lived
Feel so low, so low in this

If I could just make it 'til the morning
Maybe I could buy some time
If I could make it one more night
I could make it one more night
Say it out loud to believe it
I could be good someday
If I could make it one more night
I can make it one more night

Will rise
The sun will rise
The sun will rise
Rise

Dark times ahead
Dark times never fading
Lord you've never heard me pray so much
I'm barely hanging on
On the edge
And I'm scared
'Cause I wanna let go

How much more can I take
'Til I hit bottom and I finally break
Take all the pieces of my pain
Put em back together, make a new man

If I could just make it 'til the morning
Maybe I could buy some time
If I could make it one more night
I could make it one more night
Say it out loud to believe it
I could be good someday
If I could make it one more night
I can make it one more night

Will rise
Children of the sun will rise
Rise
Rise

Looking outside seeing shades of red
Hoping last night's the worst it gets
Pulling myself back off the ledge
When it could've gone the other way
