Week to Week

Lyrics

Verse 1
Grey sky pressing on the block
Mum still counts the coins she got
Rent due, man, that bell don't stop
I learned young, just take what’s not

Long shifts, feet hurting bad
Still I smile when my little man asks
"Any chance?" and I swear I have
But my pockets look bare through the glass

Post through the door, I know that feel
Hands go cold when the words get real
One late bill and the room turns still
Still I step out, gotta chase that meal

Pre-Chorus
Hold it down, don't fold now
Even when the floor feels low now
I’ve seen love go thin and slow
Still I keep my head and go

Chorus
Week to week, I’m still here
(week to week)
Barely sleep, but I’m still here
(hold me close)
If the world try break my name
I stand up through the rain
Week to week, I’m still here
(week to week)

Verse 2
Family pain got the house too quiet
Phone lit up, but I can't deny it
One more hit and the room went silent
Now I carry that weight, can't hide it

Auntie's tears on the kitchen tile
Dad don't smile like he used to smile
I keep moving, my face stays mild
But my chest feels tight like miles

Council steps and the damp front wall
Kids still play when the cold winds call
Every day is a fight, that's all
Still we rise when we take that fall

Pre-Chorus
Hold it down, don't fold now
Even when the floor feels low now
I’ve seen love go thin and slow
Still I keep my head and go

Chorus
Week to week, I’m still here
(week to week)
Barely sleep, but I’m still here
(hold me close)
If the world try break my name
I stand up through the rain
Week to week, I’m still here
(week to week)

Bridge
Bare walls, same shoes, same weather
Still I stitch my world together
If I trip, I get back up
Got my blood, got my love, got luck

Final Chorus
Week to week, I’m still here
(week to week)
Barely sleep, but I’m still here
(hold me close)
If the world try break my name
I stand up through the rain
Week to week, I’m still here
(week to week)
