Stay For Us

I've been missing you
Won't you stay for us?
Won't you stay for us?
Won't you
I don't ask for much, stay for us

I used to dream of the places I couldn't go
I used to dream of the people I'd never known
Guess that's a habit to which I been holding on
Have a million in the bank, still wishing I could take a loan. But
This is really where I am
And I was placed, I was planned
Our roots are a blessing from His hand
So, God, let us flourish where we stand

If I leave, I don't want to do it for me
And if I stay, that's a bet on what we could be
From where I am, the other side is looking green
It's just because they're jealous, they're thinking the same thing
I believe we could make this work
Even trees started off sitting in the dirt
So if you're hurt, please, let me repair you
Used to only be the medic, now I too have assailed you

I know I failed you
But our big mistake would be to leave now
Ignoring each other's pain
And I forgot to ask forgiveness
If it means you lose, I don't want to win this

I've been missing you
Won't you stay for us?
Won't you stay for us?
Won't you
I don't ask for much, stay for us

Pools of talent, new points of view
Exist because they're nourished
And that goes for us too
I'm committed to you, and you committed to me
I damage you, you damaged me
But I bandaged you and you bandaged me
I found a treasure trove, a treasure trove
I can't just take the money
No, I'm gonna add some gold
Invest it in your soul, I know I'll see the fruits
But if I change my goals, of course you'll miss em when you shoot

When this get so complicated? So complicated...
Think I switched my part for you and now you really overplayed it
Never took the time to say it. Otherwise, I'd know
The schizophrenic way I cast my shadow on your soul
Thinking you just filled a role, meant to make me happy
I was at the wheel and I thought you were in the back seat
But now I see the road and all the paths we drove
You were in your own car but both are driving home

And that's the miracle of love:
Two becoming one but staying two all at once
And I don't want to miss this one day
Let's forgive and live so we don't ever have to say

I've been missing you
Won't you stay for us?
Won't you stay for us?
Won't you
I don't ask for much, stay for us
