And this is the hardest part
Finding our way through the dark
Your love is the spark
Let's go from the start
And this is the hardest part
Finding our way through the dark
Your love is the spark
Let's go from the start

From the ashes of our homes
The passion in our bones
This madness we have known
All goes to catacombs
All we hold is memory
All we are is centuries of energy that molded everything
From thoughts and prayers
To places we have settled
We created, then we jetted
Don't know where we are headed
Still tryna stay connected
I’m a refugees son, that had to learn how to run
Who struggled to express it with a colonizers tongue
I once made peace with the place that we come from
Before the war drums beat again
My people move their feet again
We’ve only known what freedom is in moments of this life
Moments we hold precious, so much they become our guides
I’m finding my way out of the darkness again
This trauma and pain lives in our body and brain
And we can’t work through what we can’t even explain
There’s ways that we can grow
But we may never be the same

And this is the hardest part
Finding our way through the dark
Your love is the spark
Let's go from the start
And this is the hardest part
Finding our way through the dark
Your love is the spark
Let's go from the start

Lord knows I grieve well
Well, well
Pull my car over, let loss feed me my medicine
I always mean well
Well, well
But feeling trapped when I trap ghosts inside my head again
We had extra passion but compassion was on Dexatrim
Who I was with her will never get my breath again
Who I have become is who I’ve been invested in
Invest in him, he tryna give my best
See me as I really am, and not as you expect
But I must do the same
And I been looking at our movement through a fugue of pain
Torn between where I am wanted and I’m needed since they’re not the same
I hope I’m not insane
I just wanna love him
I just wanna love you
Wanna love them
For you to feel me
When we not touching
Only rap was easy
Everything else took some struggling
And I’m not running

And this is the hardest part
Finding our way through the dark
Your love is the spark
Let's go from the start
And this is the hardest part
Finding our way through the dark
Your love is the spark
Let's go from the start
