[Intro: Alex Isley]
Oh
Where does my future lie
If I don't know the truth now?
I know I'll get by
But I don't know how
[Verse 1: Rapsody]
My loved ones on my mind lately (Always on my mind)
The memories she can't find, maybe (I know it's hard)
We'll make more—they'll stay longer, maybe (I'll stay a while longer)
So, I spend more time and call more lately (Hello?)
The things we go through, baby, I pray you never feel alone
I'm here for you, sittin' in this hell like Meshake, my soul boils
Tears feel compelled to put my fire out lately
The baby I ain't keep—it's been years but still fazes me
Things we go through change us (They change us)
The new and old me, they feel like strangers
The reality one day, to you, I'll be a stranger
Life ain't easy wit' these changes
Mentally, I'm barely hangin' but get up again (I get up again)
It's crazy what a hug would do for you and them
Things I said I'd never do, I did over again (I did)
My reality is that I dread the day I walk into the house and you ask someone who I am (Shit)
[Chorus: Rapsody & Alex Isley]
Who you got to go to (Who you got to go to?)
Wit' all the things we go through? (All the things we go through)
Who you got to hold you? (Who you got to hold you?)
On God, life hard like loose rocks in the yard, look (Ah, yeah)
Who you got to go to (Who you got to go to)
Wit' all the things we go through? (With all the things we go through?)
Who you got to hold you? (Who you got to hold you?)
On God, life hard like loose rocks in the yard (Ayy, yeah)
[Verse 2: Rapsody]
It breaks my heart to know you gon' forget us
Dementia touch yo' memory; you like my second mother (True)
The symptoms worsen every time I drop by for a visit
The stories entertainin' even if they're mostly fiction
You can't tell the difference; we laugh to keep from cryin'
Repetition, repetition, repe—, you keep tryin' to remember
Can't forget yo' husband had the same condition (Wack)
I wonder sometimes if a broken heart can create illness
It breaks my heart to know you gon' forget us
Dementia touch yo' memory; (Uh) you like my second mother
The symptoms worsen every time I drop by for a visit
I repeat myself like you because my heart is broken similar—fuck!
[Chorus: Rapsody & Alex Isley]
Who you got to go to (Who you got to go to)
Wit' all the things we go through? (With all the things we go through?)
Who you got to hold you? (Who you got to hold you?)
On God, life hard like loose rocks in the yard, look (On God, ah)
Who you got to go you (Who you got to hold you?)
Wit' all the things we go through? (All the things are hard, ooh, yeah)
Who you got to hold you? (Who you got to hold you?)
On God, life hard like loose rocks in the yard (Ah)
