N.J. Whitey Lyrics

I can't handle falling down
I am not able to cope with failure or setbacks

Oh no, don't go
I am pleading with someone not to leave or give up on me

You say that sad songs get you down
You claim to become sad when you listen to songs that are melancholic

But you know, they make you grow
Despite knowing that they can cause sadness, they can also contribute to personal growth

And if you give that song a chance
By giving this song an opportunity to resonate with you emotionally

You might just give us a chance and
You may also consider giving our music a chance as well

If there is someone who will stand up
If there is a person of strength or conviction

And tell me that love has a reason
And express to me that love is rational or logical

You can be the strong one
You could potentially be that person of strength or conviction

You can be the word man
You can be the one who articulates and communicates this conviction

People want to hear what they're feeling
People desire to relate to the emotions that they're experiencing

On the inside
Internally, within their minds and hearts

Please don't be that soft with me
I am requesting that you do not treat me with excessive tenderness or compassion

I'm hardcore love
I am a lover who is intense, passionate, and committed

You knock me down with your misery
Your sadness and struggles can affect me deeply as well

And I make love to your angry soul
I am able to find intimacy and connection with you even in moments of anger or frustration

As the coach comes around the bench
As a moment of opportunity or momentum arises

I am small but I'm feeling tall
I may not be physically imposing, but I feel confident and empowered

Took two years to get a hit
It took a significant amount of time and effort to achieve a successful outcome

But now I'm smokin' every day
Now, I am experiencing a high degree of success and fulfillment on a consistent basis
