FRONT PORCH TRUTH

Verse 1
Sun goin down on Magnolia Street
Rockin chair creak playin memories
Phone stay quiet but my mind stay loud
You said forever but you ain’t here now
Mama said child let time do its thing
Some folks love you but don’t mean a thing
I poured my heart like sweet iced tea
Too much sugar still wasn’t sweet
Pre-Chorus
I been holdin on to words you never meant
Readin between lies you never sent
Chorus
I’m sittin with the truth on the front porch
Heart bruised but it still got force
You took my love thought it was weak
But it built me stronger than you’ll ever be
I cried my tears let the night talk
Found my peace in a slow back walk
You might ride by think I still care
But I’m healed baby I ain’t there
Verse 2
Neon sign hum at the corner bar
Same old song on the same old scar
You chase fast love I move slow
I plant my roots where the deep things grow
I ain’t bitter just educated
Love ain’t rushed it’s cultivated
You wanted fire I wanted flame
One burns out one stays the same
Pre-Chorus
I stopped beggin you to stay
Found my power when I walked away
Chorus
I’m sittin with the truth on the front porch
Heart bruised but it still got force
You took my love thought it was weak
But it built me stronger than you’ll ever be
I cried my tears let the night talk
Found my peace in a slow back walk
You might ride by think I still care
But I’m healed baby I ain’t there
Bridge
Slow groove playin in my chest
Southern nights taught me rest
Ain’t no rush when you know your worth
Love come easy when you know you first
Break (spoken/sung)
Yeah
I ain’t lost
I’m aligned
Final Chorus
Still sittin with the truth on the front porch
Same old breeze but a brand new force
What you left never broke me down
I found my crown when you skipped town
I wave goodbye with a soft smile
Been free for a good long while
If you wonder if I still care
I’m healed baby I ain’t there
Outro
Rockin chair
Quiet mind
Southern soul
Peace is mine
