The Person Inside Me (Country-Rap Heartfelt – ~2,450 characters) [Intro – soft guitar] Every little boy carries a man inside… Every man still hears that boy cry sometimes. [Verse 1 – Country] Dirt-road mind, skyscraper heart Little boots walkin’ miles in the dark Mama’s lullaby stuck behind bars I built with my own two scarred-up arms Broken ‘fore I ever broke ground Lost my laugh in the crib, never made a sound Grew up angry with a critical mouth Protectin’ a kid nobody found [Pre-Chorus] Who am I meant to be? What am I meant to see? Whose eyes do I borrow to finally feel free? [Chorus – Big & soulful] There’s a person inside me screamin’ “Let me out!” A scared little boy where the hurt lives now Askin’ “Am I wanted? Do I belong?” I been runnin’ from his voice my whole life long Tonight I’m huggin’ him tight like Daddy never did Singin’ “You’re safe, little man, you’re enough” Healing the man starts with lovin’ that kid [Verse 2 – Rap over banjo & 808] Parts of me fractured, hid in the past Sharp tongue was armor made of cracked glass Grief in my chest, guilt on my back Shame in my veins like a cold-heart attack I see him now—baby left alone Cryin’ in a crib that never felt like home I pick him up, rock him slow “Little king, I got you—we breakin’ these chains, let’s go” [Chorus – Bigger] Now that boy and this man walkin’ side by side Red-dirt road, lighter load, nothin’ left to hide I forgive the ones who couldn’t hold me right They were broken kids too, fightin’ their own nights [Bridge – Soft piano] My hidden soul ain’t lost in the stars It’s been walkin’ beside me, countin’ every scar Waitin’ till I was ready to see The man and the child are both me I sit with him daily, let him cry it out “Big me’s drivin’ now—you can rest your feet, little scout” All the voices that guarded me, thank y’all for the fight Love’s takin’ the wheel tonight [Final Chorus – Full voice] Who am I meant to be? Both, and I’m free What am I meant to see? All this beauty Through a child’s wide eyes and a grown man’s heart I’m lovin’ myself from finish back to start To myself I’ll be true till my dyin’ day The person inside me finally found his way Hey little me, close your eyes, go to sleep Big me’s got the watch… everything’s gonna be okay. [Outro – Whispered] In the mind of the child beats the heart of a man In the heart of a man lives the mind of a child again And tonight, little brother… we’re holdin’ hands.
Lyrics
Every little boy carries a man inside…
Every man still hears that boy cry sometimes.
Dirt-road mind, skyscraper heart
Little boots walkin’ miles in the dark
Mama’s lullaby stuck behind bars
I built with my own two scarred-up arms
Broken ‘fore I ever broke ground
Lost my laugh in the crib, never made a sound
Grew up angry with a critical mouth
Protectin’ a kid nobody found
Who am I meant to be?
What am I meant to see?
Whose eyes do I borrow to finally feel free?
There’s a person inside me screamin’ “Let me out!”
A scared little boy where the hurt lives now
Askin’ “Am I wanted? Do I belong?”
I been runnin’ from his voice my whole life long
Tonight I’m huggin’ him tight like Daddy never did
Singin’ “You’re safe, little man, you’re enough”
Healing the man starts with lovin’ that kid
Parts of me fractured, hid in the past
Sharp tongue was armor made of cracked glass
Grief in my chest, guilt on my back
Shame in my veins like a cold-heart attack
I see him now—baby left alone
Cryin’ in a crib that never felt like home
I pick him up, rock him slow
“Little king, I got you—we breakin’ these chains, let’s go”
There’s a person inside me screamin’ “Let me out!”
A scared little boy where the hurt lives now
Askin’ “Am I wanted? Do I belong?”
I been runnin’ from his voice my whole life long
Tonight I’m huggin’ him tight like Daddy never did
Singin’ “You’re safe, little man, you’re enough”
Healing the man starts with lovin’ that kid
Now that boy and this man walkin’ side by side
Red-dirt road, lighter load, nothin’ left to hide
I forgive the ones who couldn’t hold me right
They were broken kids too, fightin’ their own nights
My hidden soul ain’t lost in the stars
It’s been walkin’ beside me, countin’ every scar
Waitin’ till I was ready to see
The man and the child are both me
I sit with him daily, let him cry it out
“Big me’s drivin’ now—you can rest your feet, little scout”
All the voices that guarded me, thank y’all for the fight
Love’s takin’ the wheel tonight
Who am I meant to be? Both, and I’m free
What am I meant to see? All this beauty
Through a child’s wide eyes and a grown man’s heart
I’m lovin’ myself from finish back to start
To myself I’ll be true till my dyin’ day
The person inside me finally found his way
Hey little me, close your eyes, go to sleep
Big me’s got the watch… everything’s gonna be okay.In the mind of the child beats the heart of a man
In the heart of a man lives the mind of a child again
And tonight, little brother… we’re holdin’ hands.
