Cross a Bridge

Early days back where it all began
When the money started rolling in
And everyone was reaching
Everyone was reaching in
It was all of them, thought it was all of us
Hit me harder than a coward punch
So I just went out drinking
Tryna let it all sink it
Even when your friends make a mess
Fail the test
Just keep walking
Even when my blood boils hard
I won’t stop
I’ll still be there
My father always said to be strong
When you’re wronged
And rise above it like he did
Sometimes all that it takes is forgiveness
To cross a bridge
Another town far away from home
Redemption is a lonely road
I lay in bed not sleeping
Thought that sleeping was for when you’re dead
I’ve done some stupid things with my reckless highs
Made some big mistakes right from the start
Maybe I was not worth keeping
And that was slowly sinking in
Even when my head let me tread
On the edge
The door stayed open
You never let the fire in your eyes
Be denied
It was always there
My father always said to be strong
When you’re wronged
And rise above it like he did
Sometimes all that it takes is forgiveness
To cross a bridge
After all the highs and lows
As the travels come and go
There is nothing more important than this
Even when your friends make a mess
Fail the test
Just keep walking
Even when my blood boils hard
I won’t stop
I’ll still be there
My father always said to be strong
When you’re wronged
And rise above it like he did
Sometimes all that it takes is forgiveness
Sometimes all that we need is forgiveness
Sometimes all that it takes is forgiveness
To cross a bridge
