Stories
Superchick Lyrics

We've been down to the bottom
We've been at our lowest point

Stories we got 'em, when we hit rock bottom
We have stories to share about our struggles when we hit rock bottom

If you been there put your hands in the air
If you've gone through tough times, raise your hands

To let the lost know that someone cares
To let those who feel lost know that there are people who care

'Cause we've been down to the bottom
Because we've experienced the depths of despair

Stories we've got 'em, when we hit rock bottom
We have stories to tell about the challenges we faced when we hit rock bottom

If you been there put your hands in the air
If you've gone through tough times, raise your hands

And let somebody know that the Most High cares
And let someone know that God cares

I never knew that it would feel like this
I never imagined feeling this way

When the two that raised you up and call it quits
When the people who raised you decide to separate

Nobody told me 'bout the emptiness
No one warned me about the feeling of emptiness

When the place you call home is closed for business
When your home no longer feels like home

I push the pain down, I gotta get by
I try to ignore the pain and carry on

Always knowin' in my heart that it ain't gonna fly
Knowing deep down that this strategy won't work

Rock bottom's never felt so near before
I've never felt closer to hitting rock bottom

And if pain is God's megaphone it's loud and clear
If God is trying to get my attention through pain, I'm hearing it loud and clear

So hold me now father, human love ain't enough
God, please comfort me because human love is not enough

I've failed and been failed by the people I love
I have failed and others have failed me, even those I love

But your beautiful arms they surround me
God's loving embrace surrounds me

And any other soul who has to sail those seas
And anyone else who is going through a difficult time

Of a broken family
Of a family that has been torn apart

Been so many times that I've been close to rock bottom
I've been on the verge of hitting rock bottom many times

Trying to look for answers but nobody's got 'em
I've tried to find solutions to my problems but no one has them

Like the time my mother looked me in the eye
Like the time my mother had a serious conversation with me

Tryin' not to cry, tellin' me the cancer might cause her to die
Trying to hold back tears, she told me that she might not survive cancer

How can this be, I thought that God loved me?
I wondered why God would let this happen if He loved me

So why would he try to take my mother from me?
Why would God want to take my mother away from me?

And as I cry myself to sleep at night, holding on my pillow tight
I cry myself to sleep at night, clinging to my pillow

He spoke to me and said that everything gonna be alright
God spoke to me and assured me that everything will be okay

So I tried to fight all the pain that it caused
So I tried to overcome the pain that my situation caused

Try to move on and I try to stay strong
I try to move forward while remaining strong

So put your hands up, hey, if y'all are feelin' me
Raise your hands if you can relate to what I'm saying

And put your hands up for everyone to see
Raise your hands so everyone can see that we are united

So put your hands up, we all a family
Raise your hands because we are all a family

So put your hands up, in unity, in unity
Raise your hands in unity

I've been there too
I've gone through similar struggles as well

When everything falls apart and the best you can do is
When everything is going wrong and you can only do your best

Get through each day wonderin' will this never end?
Get through each day, questioning if the struggles will ever end

Is it always going to be this way?
Will things always be this difficult?

And the greatest lie you've ever been told is that
The biggest falsehood you've been told is that

You're the only one to ever walk on this road
You are alone in your struggles

And that you'll never see the light of dawn, so we came together to say
You'll never experience hope or happiness, so we came together to say

Hold on
Hang in there

'Cause we've been there and found our way home
Because we've gone through tough times and emerged on the other side

We promise you that you're not on your own
We promise that you're not alone

One day this will pass, God will see us all through
One day, this will come to an end, and God will guide us through it

God will see us all through
God will help us all get through our struggles

[Chorus]
Repeating chorus
