August - Shattered Sun

My name is August, I'm so far from flawless This heart has been damaged, need a bandage where my scars is These eyes have seen plenty, these hands have shook many These lies took a toll from all of those friends, folks turned enemies And I'm really from the streets, really where they play for keeps Really where we taught hard heart Don't show emotion, you'll look weak But I've always just been me, who got hard leakup for weeks Wear emotions on my sleeve, on the grind until I'm weak But I gotta keep movin' Grindin' for more, keepin' my hope Covered in prayer, God, please, don't let me go Work on my trauma, lick all of my own wounds Love myself like I'm supposed to Keep my light when my days look low Tell me could you do the same too? Still love me when it's very scary Ride with me, babe Do a bid, stack and grind, say I'ma pray with you Do-or-die type of love that vow to stay with you Ride top, bang hard, just caught a stray bullet Reckless love February to forever-ary, say swear, ain't no endin' to us Could you be my future, like June into July, don't you lie Let me introduce myself My name August (August), have you fallin' (fallin') Like it's August (August) Pardon, let me introduce myself My name August (August), have you fallin' (fallin') Like it's August (August) Pardon, let me introduce myself

There's a battle between good and evil And it's raging inside of me There's a struggle, it's God and the devil It's love against the enemy Whoa, no I'm not giving up now Whoa Life's a fight of wrong and right that's tearing me apart Oh, but what the cross has done Yeah, the world will try to battle for my heart But the war is already won There's a snake that's hiding in the garden There's a beautiful apple tree There is trouble on the horizon But I'm claiming victory Whoa, no I'm not giving in now Whoa Life's a fight of wrong and right that's tearing me apart Oh, but what the cross has done Yeah, the world will try to battle for my heart But the war is already won, won, won Whoa, whoa I'm not giving in Life's a fight of wrong and right that's tearing me apart Oh, but what the cross has done Yeah, the world will try to battle for my heart But the war is already won, won, won
