She Said
She Said
Sometimes life gets so hard
You stand so long that you get tired
It’s not about giving in
But knowing you just can’t win
It’s about the rules and the hypocrites
The tighter you hold the harder it gets
Parents preachers cops and teachers
A single voice lost in the bleachers
Just one drink might solve a problem
But leads to ten which don’t solve nothing
You can’t escape from your family
They’re all they are and all they’ll be
One of these days you’re going to see
Cause someday the mom you’ll be
Make mistakes share the laughter
Bear the pain cure disaster
Someday you will want to know
How I did it what’s the goal
But till that day I sit and cry
Look beyond stars asking why
Oh please my lord let me have love
Until you call me back above
Someone who will always care
Someone who is always there
