LYRICS: 
 
I’m half the man I used to be  
It’s gon’ take some getting used to me 
I used to think I had it all 
But when you’re up all you do is fall 
And that’s why I’m 
Half the man I used to be 
 
Trials and tribulations  
All my past trauma 
Generational curses from daddy and mama 
Heartbreak and lies 
Dirty soul ties  
Mixed with addictions that clouded my eyes 
I’ve been mistaken and taken for granted 
and locked in the prison that I call my mind 
And now that I’ve lived and I’ve learned   
And I’ve built and I’ve burned all these bridges I’ll leave it behind 
And that’s why 
 
I’m half the man I used to be  
It’s gon’ take some getting used to me 
I used to think I had it all 
But when you’re up all you do is fall 
And that’s why I’m 
Half the man I used to be 
 
Don’t ask the reason I changed 
Ask yourself why you stayed the same  
I couldn’t sleep in that bed I made 
I needed more in life  
I tried every remedy prescribed  
Getting drunk every night  
Letting women waste my time  
Now I’m in a phase I can sleep alone  
I don’t ever chase, I got God 
Letting go of pain that was never mine 
Trying to bear the weights  
not my job  
Cause that’s the man i used to be 
And he ain't no use to me 
 
I’m half the man I used to be  
It’s gon’ take some getting used to me 
I used to think I had it all 
But when you’re up all you do is fall 
And that’s why I’m 
Half the man I used to be 
 
I’m half the man I used to be  
It’s gon’ take some getting used to me 
I used to think I had it all 
But when you’re up all you do is fall 
And that’s why I’m 
Half the man I used to be
