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

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

Ever thought about losing it

When your money s all gone and you lose your whip

You might lose your grip when the landlord tell ya that you do for rent

And the grass so green on the other side

Make a n-gga wanna run staight through the fence

We re never freezed by two hundred 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?

Cause it even really matter?

Cause the flight is a uphill battle

But y all tryna climb with the same ol ladder

In the same boat, with the same ol battle

Why so shallow? I m just asking

What s the pattern setting madness

Everybody ain t a number one draft pick

Most of us ain t hollywood actors

But if it s all for one, and one for all

Then maybe one day, we all can rock

Do it one time for the underdogs

Sincerely yours, from one of yours

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

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

I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle

You just wanna live, been levitating so low

That you could drown in a bubble

That s why I gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up

For all the times no one s ever spoke for us

To every single time that they play this song

You can say that that s what bobby ray wrote for us

When the tides get too high

And the sea upon your knees get so deep

And you feel like you re just another person

Getting lost in the crowd, where your partner, no please

Uh, because we won t be near yet, both of us

But we still stand tall with our shoulders up

And even though we always a chance to us

These are the things that ve molded us

And if life hadn t chosen us

Sometimes I wonder where woulda wind up

Cause if it was up to me, i d make a new blueprint

Feel better from the ground up, hey

But if it s all for one, and one for all

Then maybe one day, we all can rock

Do it one time for the underdogs

From bobby ray, to all of y all

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

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