Be Her Peace

Lyrics

Verse 1
She got her phone face down
Eyes on the door
Same sound
Keys hit the table
Raised voice
Same fight
Different night
Same choice

Tired of the late-night lies
Mascara rivers in her eyes
Said
"I picked wrong once
I know"
Now she scared to let it go

Chorus
I just wanna be her peace
Not her problem
Hold her when the world can’t solve ’em
She already picked the wrong baby daddy
Let me be the calm in the chaos she carries
I just wanna be her peace
Not her pain
Turn all of those thunderclouds to rain
She already picked the wrong baby daddy
Let me love her gentle
Let me love her gladly (oh yeah)

Verse 2
He text when he need his pride fed
Never when the kids need their bed made
She do two jobs and the night shift
Still blame her when the plans drift

I’m in the kitchen
Washing plates
Packing lunches
Easing weight
Tell her
"You ain’t hard to love"
You just never had enough

Chorus
I just wanna be her peace
Not her problem
Hold her when the world can’t solve ’em
She already picked the wrong baby daddy
Let me be the calm in the chaos she carries
I just wanna be her peace
Not her pain
Turn all of those thunderclouds to rain
She already picked the wrong baby daddy
Let me love her gentle
Let me love her gladly

Bridge
Not here to fix what he broke
Just here to stay through the smoke
You don’t have to beg or compete
Lay your heart down
Put up your feet (yeah)

Chorus
I just wanna be her peace
Not her problem
Hold her when the world can’t solve ’em
She already picked the wrong baby daddy
Let me be the calm in the chaos she carries
I just wanna be her peace
Not her pain
Turn all of those thunderclouds to rain
She already picked the wrong baby daddy
Let me be the right kind of love for your family
