I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
Ever thought about losing it
When your money s all gone and you lose your whip
You might lose your grip when the landlord tell ya that you do for rent
And the grass so green on the other side
Make a n-gga wanna run staight through the fence
We re never freezed by two hundred times
But still can t find no food in it
That s foolishness
And sometimes I wonder, why we care so much about the way we look, and the way we talk and the way we act and the clothes we bought, how much that cost?
Cause it even really matter?
Cause the flight is a uphill battle
But y all tryna climb with the same ol ladder
In the same boat, with the same ol battle
Why so shallow? I m just asking
What s the pattern setting madness
Everybody ain t a number one draft pick
Most of us ain t hollywood actors
But if it s all for one, and one for all
Then maybe one day, we all can rock
Do it one time for the underdogs
Sincerely yours, from one of yours
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle
You just wanna live, been levitating so low
That you could drown in a bubble
That s why I gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up
For all the times no one s ever spoke for us
To every single time that they play this song
You can say that that s what bobby ray wrote for us
When the tides get too high
And the sea upon your knees get so deep
And you feel like you re just another person
Getting lost in the crowd, where your partner, no please
Uh, because we won t be near yet, both of us
But we still stand tall with our shoulders up
And even though we always a chance to us
These are the things that ve molded us
And if life hadn t chosen us
Sometimes I wonder where woulda wind up
Cause if it was up to me, i d make a new blueprint
Feel better from the ground up, hey
But if it s all for one, and one for all
Then maybe one day, we all can rock
Do it one time for the underdogs
From bobby ray, to all of y all
