There are things I’ve done
I’m not proud to tell
Along the lines of trust,
love came to conquer me
It ain’t easy to decide,
Truth of the matter is,
someone’s gonna be crying
So it came, the like rain,
Came to pour all over me
So I stand on my ground
Look what I have found,
I found Me.
There are people I’ve hurt,
I’m not proud to tell,
Along the lines of friendship,
inexperience spoke to me
It ain’t easy to apologize
Truth of the matter is,
some things wont be the same again
So it came, the like rain,
Came to pour all over me
So I stand on my ground
Look what I have found,
I found Me.
Me and my mom,
we’re not quite the same
Along the lines of love,
childishness spoke to me
It aint easy to understand
Truth of the matter is,
she’s always gonna be around.
So she came, like the rain,
Came to pour all over me
So I stand on my ground to look what I have found
I’ve found a friend.
There are things in my life
too crazy to tell
When the tides are changing
and I had nothing left
It ain’t easy to start again
But truth of the matter is,
I’ve got my friends
So they came, like the rain
They came to pour all over
So I stand on my ground
to look who is around
I’ve found my friends
