Darkest Hour
Dabron Kain Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Imagine feelin' so guilty you scared to pray to God
Imagine tryin' to pretend to him when he know your heart
I think we all underestimate where his patience start
I think i should call on him more when i make this art
I'm scared of winnin' as much as i am afraid of losing'
Or maybe i'm just afraid of fame and i'm bad at choosin'
Between attention and tensions of complacency cruisin'
Through this life knowin' all of my potential i blew it
I hate change but always adapt to new things
I try to find a perspective in when i lose things
My confidence keep waverin' with my mood swings
So i gotta remind myself i'm a true king
This is honesty hour, this is honestly power
You put ya back to the mirror you are obviously coward
We like the concrete rose, we not polishin' flowers
We must always live our truth 'cause its constantly ours

Nobody told me life would be easy, sometimes it feels like i wont last
But in my darkest hour i found power, i take off my mask
I'm only human, yeah
I'm only human, yeah
I'm only human, yeah
Oh-ooooh-oh-oh, oh-ooooh-oh-only

People around me tell me that i'm wise beyond my years
To tell the truth i'm probably just wiser than all my peers
They say ya know things, i'm like no shit
But the thing i know the most is i don't know shit
Maybe i grew too fast, sometimes i feel i aint grow up at all
Sometimes i care too much, sometimes i feel like fuck it all
Don't trust too many people so i'm always duckin' off
I love hard so its difficult to cut 'em off
We always ridiculin'
Til' our time come around to say we only human
I guess its safe to say that most of us is only foolish
I guess its safe to say that most of us is only foolish
As you dyin' on the inside these niggas ghoulish
Tryin' to rob you of yo happiness, you bout to lose it
I tell 'em God got me, they tell me nigga prove it
That's when i hop up out the dirt lookin' undisputed

See a lot of people look at darkness as a bad thing
But what most of us fail to realize is that
Sometimes you can find ya light walkin' through the dark
Theres always a dark side of us and theres always a light side of us
And then theres the gray area
And that's what makes us human
Tell 'em Eleanor

I'm only human, yeah
I'm only human, yeah
I'm only human, yeah
Oh-ooooh-oh-oh, oh-ooooh-oh-only
I'm only human, yeah
I'm only human, yeah




I'm only human, yeah
Oh-ooooh-oh-oh, oh-ooooh-oh-only
