Lyrics
You tried so hard
You exerted a lot of effort
Now your loosing
Now you are experiencing loss
You're hope
Your optimism
Fought to reach the top of a slippery slope
Struggled to overcome challenges
Put yourself out there
Exposed yourself to others
In a city square
In a public space
Left with empty pockets
Left with no money
Nobody seemed to care
People seemed indifferent
I will cry with you
I will share your sorrow
Cause I've been there before
Because I've faced similar struggles
I won't try to fix you
I won't attempt to solve your problems
Your words won't be ignored
Your words won't be overlooked
So lay your bricks down
Place the foundation for recovery
And let's build you up once more
Let's rebuild your strength
I'm crying with you cause I've been there before
I empathize because of my own experiences
Oh I've been there before
Oh, I've faced those challenges before
Poured money into dreams
Invested money in aspirations
Now your loosing sleep
Now experiencing insomnia
Feeling like the queen of greed
Feeling consumed by avarice
You got mouths to feed
Responsibilities to fulfill
Moving forward
Moving ahead
Only hurts more
Progress is painful
Now you're crying
Now you're in tears
On the bathroom floor
In a vulnerable state on the bathroom floor
I will cry with you
I will share your sorrow
Cause I've been there before
Because I've faced similar struggles
I won't try to fix you
I won't attempt to solve your problems
Your words won't be ignored
Your words won't be overlooked
So lay your bricks down
Build the foundation for recovery
Let's build you up once more
Let's rebuild your strength
I'm crying with you
I empathize because of my own experiences
Cause I've been there before
Oh, I've faced those challenges before
Oh I've been there before
Oh, I've faced those challenges before (repeated)
Tears don't mean that you're weak
Tears don't indicate weakness
You're stronger than your think
You possess greater strength than you realize
You got a heart of gold
You have a kind and valuable heart
A story to be told
Your life has a significant story
One day you will know
Someday you'll understand
I will cry with you
I will share your sorrow
Cause I've been there before
Because I've faced similar struggles
I won't try to fix you
I won't attempt to solve your problems
Your words won't be ignored
Your words won't be overlooked
So lay your bricks down
Build the foundation for recovery
And let's build you up once more
Let's rebuild your strength
I'm crying with you
I empathize because of my own experiences
Cause I've been there before
Oh, I've faced those challenges before
Oh I've been there before
Oh, I've faced those challenges before (repeated)
