Lyrics

I was troubled, I was going through life
Reenacting all the things that I saw with my eyes
I was smoking, I was drinking, I was hitting women
Mr. B got in my face and now I can't forget it
I was in the sixth grade, lost, trying to find a way
No one helped me with my homework so I took detention days
Spent a lot of time with Harley cleaning toilets, it was calming
Having structure that I didn't have at home, I mean hardly
Never ate together at the table
Never talked over pancakes with the maple
Never went for walks down the road as a family
Never got to witness home love be happy
Never got to see one magical Christmas
I never got one thing on my wish list
How come when the family get together, it's drama
Now I gotta distance myself to avoid problems
Ooo, all I know is something's gotta give
I know this ain't how I'm supposed to live
I could never do it by myself
Thank God for ones he sent to help
Bring it back now, this album raw
Emotions hit me like it's Smack Down
I opened wounds that my family tree passed down
Ending generational curses, I hope my dad proud
I hope my dad proud, and my mom too, I owe a lot to
The ones who raised me up when they didn't have to
And the men in my life that I looked up to
You all saved me from going down a bad route
Bobby Parrish taught me to stop feeling bad for me
Mr. B taught me that we don't put our hands on woman
Mr. Whitright told me not to hold a grudge
And Mr. Bohach taught me, gotta raise your sons with love
Father Mel taught me when you get down, look above
Jimmy Burrer taught me strength's when you're mentally tough
This one's for the teachers growing boys into men
I gotta take this chance to say thank you again
Ooo, all I know is something's gotta give
I know this ain't how I'm supposed to live
I could never do it by myself
Thank God for ones he sent to help
Thank God for ones he sent to help
Thank God for ones he sent to help
Thank God for ones he sent to help
Thank God for ones he sent
Ooo, all I know is something's gotta give
I know this ain't how I'm supposed to live
I could never do it by myself
Thank God for ones he sent to help
