[Verse 1: ASTRSK*]
Don't wanna cry
But they'll look down on someone lower every time
Who am I?
I'm not stronger than who left me broken no ones by my side
And I don't want to think about the past
Try reaching up, but I can't open up the cross
I don't want you to leave me like the rest
As if I'm real - I just keep going on from one
[Pre-Chorus: ASTRSK* & McGwire]
They say, they say I'm not one of them
Maybe, maybe I'm not
They say I've waited far too long
Maybe, but I been driven to the song
[Chorus: McGwire & ASTRSK*]
When they don't pick up the phone
I know that I'll hold on
And the tears don't dry at all
'Cause friends don't cry alone
And all my time will slow
I see that spark of hope
And the tears don't dry at all
'Cause friends don't cry alone
[Verse 2: McGwire]
Goddamn
Another nail in the coffin, and I be damned if I stop it
And when I can't I be locked in 'till I am at the top
I don't care 'bout your talking, you'll be standing in shock
When I perform
I think I found a home
The reason I hold on
My peers done set the tone
Friends don't cry alone
Wait up, yeah, I been dreaming of you
Day one just wait and see what I'm gon' do
And I'm never gonna lose
I'mma take the path I choose, uh
Even if it take me to the tomb
[Pre-Chorus: ASTRSK* & McGwire]
They say, they say I'm not one of them
Maybe, maybe I'm not
They say I've waited far too long
Maybe, but I been driven to the song
[Chorus: McGwire & ASTRSK*]
When they don't pick up the phone
I know that I'll hold on
And the tears don't dry at all
'Cause friends don't cry alone
And all my time will slow
I see that spark of hope
And the tears don't dry at all
'Cause friends don't cry alone
And I been driven to the song
When they don't pick up the phone
I know that I'll hold on
And the tears don't dry at all
'Cause friends don't cry alone
And all my time will slow
I see that spark of hope
And the tears don't dry at all
'Cause friends don't cry alone
