Brave

Sometimes it′s hard to smile

When the world feels against us

When the tears are on the pavement

Ooh, I see it in their eyes

Sometimes it's hard to smile

When the world feels against us

When our blood is on the pavement

Sometime it′ll all subside

Love's tryna be my friend

What you gonna do if I hand you my heart?

I think that maybe now it's my time

And I can′t stand to lose (sometimes it′s hard)

And I know, and we know, and you know that it's been hard

And I learn, and you learn to keep up a fighting stance

Will I see the day I don′t feel the need to

Defend myself?

But if I get caught in a losing race

Can a mother's hold change a baby′s fate?

I get sick, I get tired

Of carrying this weight on my mind

And with every step that I've got to take

Don′t know how much more that a heart can break

I'm so sick, I'm so tired

I can′t keep losing my mind

I wanna be brave

I wanna be in love

It′s time I stop running away

I should stay, I should stay, I should stay

Love's tryna be my friend

Try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try

Don′t go away, please don't go away, please don′t go away

Love's tryna be my friend
