Chorus

I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us

Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us

Verse 1

Ever thought about losing it? When your money is all gone and you

Lose your whip you might lose your grip, when the landlord tell you

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

Open up the fridge about 20 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? Does it even really matter?

Cuz if life is an uphill battle, We all try to climb on the same old ladder

In the same boat with the same old paddle Why so shallow, I'm just asking

What's the pattern to the madness? Everybody in a #1 draft pick Most of us

aint Hollywood actors But if it's all for one, and one for all, then maybe

one day we all can ball Do it one time for the underdogs

Sincerely yours, from one of y'all

Chorus

I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us

Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us

Verse 2

I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle You just want to live, but

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

So every single time that they play this song You can say that, "that's

what Bobby Ray wrote for us" When his eyes get too high and the sea up

underneath get so deep And you feel like you're just another person getting

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

And even though we always against the odds These are the things that have

molded us

Bridge

And if life hadn't chosen us, sometimes I wonder

Where I would have wound up Cuz if it was up to me, I would make a new

blueprint Then build it from the ground up Hey, but if its all for one,

and One for all Then maybe one day we all could ball

Do it one time for the underdogs From Bobby Ray to all of y'all

Chorus

I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us

Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
