[Intro] (Sang backwards)
Em Hard days, cold nights D Staring down at an empty cup like C I'ma fill, I'ma fill it up D Em All day, all night TDen feet down nearly my whole life C But I'll be rising, rising up D
[Verse 1]
YeahEm, I know the person in the mirror's not a perfect one D I look at him every day and think he's not enoughC My life's a book that I don't really like to open upD I'm twenty-six, but I feel like I live in chapter oneEm I skim through it, I've been through it, they laugh at usD
You think it's funny, yeah, laugh it up
I always felt like Cno one listened to me, that's how I grew up Church is where I foDund God, but it's also where I learned to judgeEm Yeah, I had to learn there's a difference betweenD
What you want, and what you really need
I've always been mCotivated by comments from people tellin' me Things they think I'll nDever be, and then I become it, this is my everything There's Emso much that goes on in my head that people will never see You pDrobably be terrified of my memories, don't lecture me LCet me be, let me see, let me breathe, how they remember me Doesn't aDlter who I am as a person to take my energy, yeah
[Chorus]
Em Hard days, cold nights D Staring down at an empty cup likeC I'ma fill, I'ma fill it up D Em All day, all night TDen feet down nearly my whole lifeC But I'll be rising, rising upD
Cold nights [Verse 2]
YeahEm, my fans made me who I am, but they also deceived meD I've been allowed to live life like I'm already grievingC I'm at a table of lies, but don't eat what they feed meD My hoodie over my face, so nobody can see meEm
I'm on a plane, 'bout to fly again
Looking out the wDindow, take a moment to admire it Wondering how hCigh it is, wonder where the time has went Then I shut the wDindow and go back to feeling like I'm out my mind again, aEmgh! Yeah, seems like we're all trying to climb a ladderD
It's crazy what we'll do to climb it faster
It's like we thCrow away the things in life that really matter Just so that we can mDake it to the top, and wonder what we're even climbing afterEm I know the feeling of feeling like everything you deal wDith will never change That's part of being a human, yeahC Life's what you make of it, take it, embrace it, and take it, and sDavor it
Ain't about what you did, it's what you became from it, agh! [Chorus]
Em Hard days, cold nightsD Staring down at an empty cup likeC I'ma fill, I'ma fill it up (DOh, yeah) Em All day, all night TDen feet down nearly my whole lifeC But I'll be rising, rising up D
