LOSE IT (DAD'S VERSION) Lyrics

I've been trying to change my life but I can't seem to get it right

And I can't seem to get myself over that hill

'Cause I don't wanna lose it

I don't wanna fight cause I don't know if I can win

Losing you was the hardest thing I've ever had to do

And I wouldn't have made it through without my friends

I used to have big dreams with just my paper and pen

But now I just wanna live my life the way you say was right

And just pray to God that I might see you at the end

I know I act like I've forgotten you but I wouldn't be alive if not for you

Everything I know and everything I feel and everything I love I got from you

And there's nothing in the world that can change it

I'll talk about you every single day

And I write the songs that say what I never got to say

And just remember that one day you'll get to play this

I've been trying to change my life but I can't seem to get it right

And I can't seem to get myself over that hill

And everything changes I don't know what to say

If it's going my way then I'll see you one day

And so much has changed since the day you left

I got myself love I got myself hope I feel like I've earned my rest

I'm finally progressing at work

I'm finally making new friends

I'm finding my way I'm learning new skills

I'm taking it day by day

But I'm not saying that it's perfect

I've got some bad habits I want to purge

And some days could go a lot worse

But it's testing me it's getting on my nerves

That the world keeps on throwing me curveballs

I'm finally reaching my curtain call

'Cause I don't know if I can take much more

I'll make you proud but I won't win awards

I've been tryna change my life but I can't seem to get it right

And I can't seem to get myself over that hill

I've been tryna change my life but I can't seem to get it right

And I can't seem to get myself over that hill

'Cause I don't wanna lose it

No I don't wanna lose it
