Spark

[Verse 1: Zach B]
We walk a world of pain, we've had our fill, I'm not the same if you could tell
A part of me could never change, I'm like a blade without the hilt
They needed me, I couldn't see it, all we've made and all we've built
Was treated different every time, look, it was shame and it was guilt
I've been holding lots of it, don't know what this option is
Try to do what's right and yet I tend to do the opposite
See, I'm not even sure, it's always me who's always causing this
And I know I can do it, I just might need some more confidence
I'm never competent and never dwelled much on accomplishments
Never one to flee, they couldn't see how I'd acknowledge it
Keep it to myself, I was avoided, always bottled it
And don't think I'm much help, it's really hard to see the positives
Just group me with the novices, I can hear them hating more
Again I've broken promises, this is what they made me for
I know that I'mma honor it, my purpose ain't the same as yours
I've met a couple godesses, they said: "The sea is waiting for us"

[Chorus: McGwire]
Now I'm just holding on
No light until the dawn
One blink and then it's gone
Into the dark
And I'm just holding on
And I just drift along
They tell me: "Keep it strong
Don't lose the spark"

[Verse 2: Zach B]
I wouldn't call it losing if you run, getting used to being shunned
They'd abuse and call me stupid and the truth is that I was
Choosing not to share my two cents, it'd be useless, it'd be dumb
And lately not too empathetic, fuck it, what have I become
I do it out of love, and do it 'cause I never do enough
There's not another person I would put myself above
Know I'd give up myself and pull them out if they're stuck
And always attempt to prove, I'd be willing to spill my guts
Keep it hidden, even if I didn't, it's the hand I'm giving
Who am I kidding, just could not admit, I always tried to fit in
Things are different now, but it really isn't
I know that it's difficult to tell or even see the difference
And gramps had a crazy dream to see the world and I'll inherit it
We'll be one to see it, so that we can speak the narrative
Always getting hit, I was a kid, they saw a heretic
But I didn't gave in, I never cared for how unfair it is

[Chorus: McGwire]
Now I'm just holding on
No light until the dawn
One blink and then it's gone
Into the dark
And I'm just holding on
And I just drift along
They tell me: "Keep it strong
Don't lose the spark"
