Ervin Barr - Inside This House Lyrics

This is an advanced production, can't hide myself, no, hope you understand
I wake up every morning, put my pride aside Wear this armor on my chest, can't show what's inside
They say a man should never fold, just stand tall and fight But they don't see the tears I hide, falling late at night
Every break I laid, every dream I sold Built this house to shelter us from the cold

But the walls feel strange, like they don't know my name In a home I made, feeling lost just the same
They don't care what you feel, it's what you bring to the table The weight of the world, like I'm Cain under Abel
It's a lonely road, trying to carry this load But I'll give it my all, cause that's the only code inside this hole
Where I'm supposed to be strong, but I'm feeling all alone Like I don't belong

Try to be the man they expect me to be But who's gonna save the man when he's down on his knees
I try to please everybody, even when it hurts Fake a smile, hide the pain, but it just gets worse
Compromising my peace for expectations I can't meet Chasing dreams for others, losing pieces of me
They tell me man up, but don't see the cries In this frame I built, holding the weight on my back

A provider, protector, yeah I know the role But who's gonna save the man when he's losing his soul
They don't care what you feel, it's what you bring to the table The weight of the world, like I'm Cain under Abel
It's a lonely road, trying to carry this load But I'll give it my all, cause that's the only code inside this hole
Where I'm supposed to be strong, but I'm feeling all alone Like I don't belong

Try to be the man they expect me to be But who's gonna save the man when he's down on his knees
It's a fight every day to keep the lights on Hustling, grinding till the break of dawn
But I wonder sometimes, when they see me bleed Will they ever understand, the man I need to be
It's a lonely road, where I'm supposed to be strong But I'm feeling all alone, like I don't belong

Try to be the man they expect me to be But who's gonna save the man when he's down on his knees
Can't hide myself, I just hope you'll see Behind the man you love, is a man like me
Built this house for us, but it's not my home Still searching for a place, that feels like home
