Ink - Cross My Heart lyrics

[Verse 1: Ink] I am more than a number I'm a feeling not a color I'm a sacrifice I gave up all my fears and my doubts They say I gotta be a hero But tell me who gone save me though I paid the price Don't you know the future's right now Can you tell me who I'm supposed to be If I can't be myself? Tell me who's gonna help Help me So I [Chorus: Ink] Cross my heart, I hope to live forever I hope this pain don't last too long Too long Keep holding on, we all in this together The war ain't over, carry on Stay strong [Verse 2: Andy Mineo, Ink] It took a world emergency to gеt some break time Took a pandеmic just to make that FaceTime Call I probably shoulda made last Fall Didn't yesterday I say I'm gon do that tomorrow? That's a everyday thought So I prayed and I meditate hard If I take a L, learned and I elevate yah A'int no elevators on the stairway to heaven God I ain't always quite clear on direction 'cause Life ain't seem to go how I planned it Things'll pop out and malfunction shout Janet We always take for granted What we think is set in granite What if we didn't panic but instead we took advantage Of the time that we got right now I knew how shorty was when my mom timed out I held her inside my arms, pain don't last too long This ain't forever, it's just 'bout right now I'll see you again Can you tell me who I'm supposed to be If I can't be myself? Tell me who's gonna help Help me So I [Chorus: Ink] Cross my heart, I hope to live forever I hope this pain don't last too long Too long Keep holding on, we all in this together The war ain't over, carry on Stay strong Hey [Outro: Fran Mineo & Andy Mineo] There you are Andy, you didn't forget me I knew you'd come back for me So all in all, it's been a journey, I'm a very thankful mother It's been great, not easy, but great Oh, it's over, that's it, goodbye, cut
