Verse 1 - been a tough year, yeah I look gritty but I wish I had a bucket just to catch my tears,
Hide it from the public, like it aint nothing but my peers are lookin at me like "its gotta be something?",
Don't worry bout it, you see I been through it once, its just my second time, but the strong prevail,

Cause if Jesus hold my hand can I ever fail? People tell me they love me but would they catch me if I ever fell?,
I feel fickle myself, at times I hate the world but then I feel i care enough to change it myself,
I wouldn't have the patience, I'm just going through the motions, hoping that I make it,

Hopin that I make it and my homies really show their true colors,
Cause the friends who be the closest to you always be the dullest...



Verse 2 -- seen my hero hooked to I.V's in a single year more than enough,
Love to listen to his stories that he tells me, how he always got up,

Told me he was struck by lightning, he was even shot at,
More heart-attacks and strokes than I can count,
Defeated cancer, not even that could keep him down,

When I see him weak it hurts I despise to see him frown,
It's a night like this im up and feelin alone when i...
When i feel fickle myself, at times I hate the world but then I feel i care enough to change it myself,

I wouldn't have the patience, I'm just going through the motions, hoping that I make it,
Hopin that I make it and my homies really show their true colors,
Cause the friends who be the closest to you always be the dullest...
