[Chorus]
G D Em C
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
G D Em C
Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
[Verse 1]
G
Ever thought about losing it? When your money is all gone and you
Em
Lose your whip you might lose your grip, when the landlord tell you
G
tell you that you're due for rent and the grass so green on the
other side make a nigga wanna run straight through the fence
Em
Open up the fridge about 20 times, but still can't find no food
G
in it, that's foolishness. And sometimes i wonder why we care so
Em
much about the way we look And the way we talk, and the way we act
G
And the clothes we bought, how much that cost? Does it even really matter?
Em
Cuz if life is an uphill battle, We all try to climb on the same old ladder
G
In the same boat with the same old paddle Why so shallow, I'm just asking
Em
What's the pattern to the madness? Everybody in a #1 draft pick Most of us
G
aint Hollywood actors But if it's all for one, and one for all, then maybe
Em
one day we all can ball Do it one time for the underdogs
Sincerely yours, from one of y'all
[Chorus]
G D Em C
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
G D Em C
Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
[Verse 2]
G Em
I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle You just want to live, but
G
everything so low, That you can drown in the puddle
That's why I gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up
For all the times no one ever spoke for us
Em
So every single time that they play this song You can say that, "that's
G
what Bobby Ray wrote for us" When his eyes get too high and the sea up
Em
underneath get so deep And you feel like you're just another person getting
G
lost in the crowd Way up high in the nosebleeds Because we've both been
there, yeah both of us But we still stand tall, with our shoulders up
Em
And even though we always against the odds
