Hard Pill To Swallow

(专辑： You're Welcome - 2020)

There's a long road in front of ya
There's a hard life behind ya
There's a war been waged inside ya
You got big footsteps to follow
You got a soul that's barely hollow
And that's a hard pill to swallow

(Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow, whoa)

When you were younger just a bother, always felt so scared
Didn't know how to take it but you always dared
And now you try to act like you never cared
Feeling halfway guilty 'cause my life was spared
It feels just like a curse and I'm always to blame
Shivers down my spine when I say your name
Since I was a kid you been bigger than fame
I'd like to see the scar that you put in my brain

Early in my life I was put to the test
I had to make some choices or forget about the rest
And when I speak this fire you get nothing but the best
Let me tell you something that you better not forget

There's a long road in front of ya
There's a hard life behind ya
There's a war been waged inside ya
You got big footsteps to follow
You got a soul that's barely hollow
And that's a hard pill to swallow

(Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow, whoa)

The trauma from your mama nearly twenty years old
And your father made it harder with the soul that he sold
You know where they both went and you're ready to go
What happened, how did everything turn so cold?
We can talk about it till I'm turning blue in the face
I can laugh about it, joke about it never the same
I can't keep pretending it don't cause any pain
It's a never-ending cycle that just can't be tamed

Early in my life I was put to the test
I had to make some choices or forget about the rest
And when I speak this fire you get nothing but the best
Let me tell you something that you better not forget

There's a long road in front of ya
There's a hard life behind ya
There's a war been waged inside ya
You got big footsteps to follow
You got a soul that's barely hollow
And that's a hard pill to swallow

(Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow, whoa
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow
Hard pill to swallow, whoa)
