Glitch Factor - Stay (Official)

If you’re not sure how, or even if, you want to go on, this song is from me to you. I still remember vividly the feelings of deep despair. I was suffocating in the darkness, and it felt like I couldn’t see in front of my face. I felt like I was bringing my family down over and over again. I was there, but never present—it was like watching myself live life, just floating along.
They deserved better, and I didn’t think I would ever be able to be who I so badly wanted to become for them. When the thoughts rushed in, it felt too late to reach out. I half-heartedly and reluctantly said a prayer. I asked if He could help me just want to want to pray. I didn’t think it would do any good, but it felt like checking a box just to say, “I tried.”
I don’t remember when it happened, but it was like a pinhole of light broke through the darkness. I chased it, and it grew, until I could finally feel that one day things might get better—that even a dad and husband who wasn’t as good as they deserved was better than taking that away from them and leaving them to carry my pain and their own.
So, to all of you who hear this: stay. Just hold on. One more breath, one more step at a time!
