Maná - Make a Way Lyrics

I text my girl to ask her if we gone make it
She told me Gyasi let's save that conversation for later
But babe I'm scared
That the love that we proclaimed
Was all said just cause of distance
And in turn we've created a fable
Now of course I hope that my guess is wrong
All the love that we've poured into our bond wasn't just for the moment
But life is real and it's scary
And when it shows up with gloves
There's no way that I'm gone hide away from my opponent
I gotta face it head-on and that's just what we doing
Ain't coming back for a while so emotions are brewing
But you know why I'm gone
You know I'm actively pursuing becoming a better man
To fix the world that I had ruined
It was you me and that twin bed
Dorm room our building blocks sorry I broke it down instead
Held hands when I left but now connected by a phone and thread
Please don't cut me off after my messages was left on read
Mmh
I know I should've done my part cause you were doing yours
I know you should be in my room instead of you in yours
I know it's not ideal
But if we claim it to be real
Then I'll put in the effort that you do in yours
The truest forge
I'm here wishing for a hug and he can't answer the phone
We talked all day and yet I still feel alone
I know your thinking
And I know you're on the brink of breaking
And our moods are sinking as the table shaking I feel it quaking
We smoking more to ease the pain
Crying to the pizza man
Only way to see each other is if we fly up on a plane
And that costs money and your momma acting funny
And my dad is on my neck like why you being such a dummy
And I tell him this

Though the situations bleak I gotta try
I can't stop pushing until the day I die
I gotta still make a way
Still make a way
I gotta still make a way
Still make a way
I wasn't honest now I'll never tell a lie
I'm tired of seeing my momma sit and cry
I gotta still make a way
Still make a way
I gotta still make a way
Still make a way

Lemme tell you now that life ain't picture perfect like the tv
Look inside my bookbag it's the only way you'll see me
I see the Ultralight and now I'm beaming
I played around too much it left opportunities swinging
And now I'm stuck clinging to the life I used to know
I walk around a standard exponentially I'll grow
No longer stuck within the snow standing with cold feet when I am such a hot son
They say a black woman will keep you up and now I got one
Standing by my side and I'm standing straighter than ever
The Queen Bee to my Michelle but we rule the nation together
I'm better because her feathers keep me soaring high
I'm better because she put pressure on my coal inside
I'm no diamond without my diamond get out what we put the time in
I'm calculating the cost of our family plan with Verizon
On horizons I
I see us driving in minivans
Babies with dreams of Disneyland
And wine nights with binging plans
I see us holding hands well into old age
Reminiscing about the old days
And us happy cause we grew out of our old ways
I see us smiling hard and laughing more
Please stay with me throughout the rough terrain we may endure
Baby yes I'm sure

Though the situations bleak we're gonna try
We won't stop pushing until the day we die
We're gonna still make a way
Still make a way
We're gonna still make a way
Still make a way
To you I'm honest and I'll never tell a lie
I'll wipe your tears but tell you it's okay to cry
We're gonna still make a way
Still make a way
