Derek Lorenzo - HERE NOW. Lyrics

Sitting in these feelings
Young black man I'm healing aye
Actions helping distance your true colors are revealing
Part of me that I am trying to feed them real goal are worth a million
And I light them up with smiles soon as I enter the building
Gotta focus on self
If not me then who
If I don't help myself
Then I'm worthless to you
Aye
Reaching for things higher that I wanna pursue
Thank the lord and trust the movement keep on pushing through
Aye

I wasn't there
Wasn't there to care
But I'm here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now
I wasn't there
Wasn't there to care
But I'm here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now

Now that out my head I'm tryna find the root
Of the problem that keep tryna push back through
Driving these roads try to stay warm but I'm cold
Feeling vacant in my soul nowhere to go
Purpose is slipping so worried I'm just tryna grow aye
Needed fail so I can build on my own
Learning my rights and my wrongs
Building me better and strong
And I'm big smiling even if I don't belong
You can prolong me i was tired of pain and tired of suffering
Had to get outta my head and go and do something
Coping all alone without support will eat your heart alive
Had to trust my gut and keep good faith and keep Trust in god
Patiently I'm enjoying the journey this a long ride
Had to learn to be there for myself and under god I'll strive

I wasn't there
Wasn't there to care
But I'm here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now
I wasn't there
Wasn't there to care
But I'm here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now
I'm Here now
