Your Side Of The Bed
J.R. King Lyrics

I ain't never had nothing with certainty
I have never had anything come to me with certainty.

Faith got me through while the unknown was hurting me
My faith was the support that helped me face the unknown when it was hurting me.

Urgency applied to every feel of emergency
When things felt urgent, I applied all my energy and focus to address them like they were emergencies.

Baby on the way, and I'm fighting daily with nervous me
I feel nervous every day with a baby on the way.

Uncle sitting nearest I'm sipping nightly to spur the dreams

Writing all these songs knowing that they never heard of me
I write songs despite the fact that nobody has ever heard of me.

Darkness tryna cop me I'm stopping it all barely
I am fighting to stop the darkness that is trying to take over me, but it is a struggle.

Reality setting and honestly starts to scare me
The reality of my situation scares me when I start to think about it.

Tryna cast my burdens but the heavy ones are sinking
I am trying to dump my burdens, but the heaviest ones are hard to shake off.

Eyes close praying but prayers shifting to thinking
When I try to pray with my eyes closed, my thoughts keep taking over and I start thinking instead of praying.

Living on still I'm gathering all my reasons the poetry cathartic
I am surviving, but I am also gathering reasons to make my poetry cathartic.

Though hardly keeping me seasoned
It is a struggle to keep myself seasoned.

Stronger in my weakness keep pedaling to believe Him
My weakness is actually making me stronger as I keep pedaling to believe in Him.

He is who will be and his sovereignty keeps me reaching
He is always going to exist and I keep reaching for his sovereignty to support me.

Daily it's a struggle the heavenlys got me seeing
Every day is a struggle, but I keep seeing the heavenly support that is available to me.

Hoping all my growth will still further me for the peaking
I hope that all my growth will continue to push me forward so that I can reach new heights.

Portraiture, and my source is words
My source of expression is words, and I am creating a portrait through them.

Imagery seen as my voice is heard
When my voice is heard, the imagery I create is evident and clear.

But what I'm saying though Laying low, that was the plan bro
I was planning on laying low but now I realize I need to speak out with wisdom.

But now it's seeming speaking out with wisdom is mando
Now it seems that speaking out with wisdom is mandatory.

Closer to closure still faithing with the faith of a soldier
I am getting closer to closure, but I still have faith and am fighting with the strength of a soldier.

Still placement, as I'm patient with boldness
I am still in one place, but I am waiting with boldness.

I pro-crass the nation mimicking my behavior
I am striving to spread my behavior throughout the nation.

Late to obedience yet fitting for favor from who made ya
Even though I was late to being obedient, I am still hoping for favor from my creator.

Major difference is one is isolated
The difference between me and others is that I am isolated.

I made it an everyday prayer to stay made up
Everyday I am praying to keep myself composed.

Privy to William McRaven and daily practice
I am familiar with William McRaven's teachings and am practicing them daily.

I'm at this, mental is active
I am focused on this and my mind is active.

Limited laxness, can never get back this
I have limited room for laxity and I know I can never get back lost time.

I'm tryna fill all of my minutes with passion
I am trying to fill every single minute with my passions.

I'm tryna deal with all of my demons attacking
I am trying to deal with all of my personal demons that are attacking me.

I'm tryna find the sword for the closest combatant
I am trying to find a way to fight for myself against my closest issues.

Imagine waking up with no passion
Just imagine waking up with no passion at all.

The scariest, therapy necessary for madness
It is really scary, and I need therapy to keep myself from going mad.

Merrily merrily how am I supposed to pass this
I am struggling to figure out how to pass this situation happily.

Life is but a thing where the dreams keep passing
Life happens so quickly and it feels like my dreams are passing me by.

Charge it to the game maybe I'm just an average
I could just be average and maybe that's why things are happening the way they are.

Not reaching for fame but Influence is captured
I am not seeking fame, but I am hoping to capture and influence others with my work.

How am I a steward with the gifts that I'm given
I wonder how I can best use the gifts that I have been given.

Do I do enough or am I really just living
I wonder if I am doing enough, or if I am just living day to day.

My solitary thoughts go off
My thoughts often take me to a solitary place.

Into a place where I feel lost
When my thoughts do take me to a solitary place, I often feel lost.

My mind is all over the place
My mind feels scattered and all over the place at times.

I need a win to start my days
I need a small victory to jumpstart my days and keep me going.

I can do this
I can handle this.
