[Verse 1]
I could be homeless on the street, on the concrete
Panhandling, tryna get change for what I need
Or looking for a bridge when my cover gets soggy
So I could stay dry
I could be losing my mind with nobody to talk to
Looking in the mirror tryna figure out what's true
When I had no direction
You showed me more than my reflection
When it rains, it pours, but life's a choice
And I just can't take no more
When everywhere's a closing door
You're the one I'm looking for
[Chorus:]
If it wasn't for you
I'd be living a lie thinking what's wrong was right
If it wasn't for you
I'd be serving time in prison in my own mind
If it wasn't for you
I'd be out in these street tryna find a way to make ends meet
If it wasn't for you
I gotta thank you
If it wasn't for you
[Verse 2]
Every day is a struggle to wake up
Living with the stress in my life that builds up
It's like a mountain too high to climb up
If something's at the top, does anybody know what
Cause I don't know, it's such a long road
For every step I've taken I wanna thank you
For never leading me wrong
When it rains, it pours, but life's a choice
And I just can't take no more
When everywhere's a closing door
You're the one I'm looking for
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
I probably wouldn't know what I know now
Probably wouldn't be where I am now
You found a part of me that I never knew about
You gave me hope in doubt, yeah
And I thank you for everything you've done for me, hey
And now I see it's because of you
If it wasn't for you 9x
Where would I go without you?
