I'm waking up and getting read cause I'm late for school I pour the milk and dig the roaches out my cereal Right now it's really hard what we going through Is mom gonna come home? Dad what we gonna do? I see the pain in your eyes I know it's hard for you I want to cry and just hide is all I want to do You pick me up and hold me tight right next to you Tell me it's gonna be alright we gonna make it through But everyday at school I'm just feeling like the fool I can't afford the latest clothes or the hottest shoes I'm eight years old and all that I want to do Is get the new G.I. Joe before nobody else do I start crying when I'm in my bed and just lying It tears me up inside at night when my parents fighting I'm just trying just to make it to the silver lining But this is what my pops told me every single night he said Chorus We gonna make it, yes we gonna make it We gonna make it, yes we gonna make it It's Friday afternoon it's just another weekend And I don't want to see my mom I don't like her new boyfriend It's like every single day I start wondering Will they get back together, will we be a family again I asked my dad now just the same question He just got quiet shook his head and never said nothing That weekend I said the same thing to my mother But she said nothing either now sometimes I wonder If they use me just to get back at one another I'm stuck in the middle of this war so I duck for cover How can anyone love me if they don't love each other It all got changed in a fourth grade summer They finally got divorced my whole world crumbled Now is it really over now is what my mind wondered So the court gave my mom full custody And as my pops kissed me goodbye this what he said to me Chorus Bridge Baby boy don't you worry about a single thing Baby boy daddy takes care of everything Baby body don't you know that you're gonna make it Here I am it's like six years later And I struggle every way now to make it as a teenager And every day I wake up I just want to change the Way that I be living cause it's killing me I hate the Stuff that I'm dealing with can't I ever just escape the Life that I been given and it's effects my behavior But I started forgiving on the day I met my Savior And I started living on the day that I gave ya All my old pain and I watched it all change Call on Your name while I watched my old ways Disappear along with these fears and old shame You wiped away the tears that used to fall like cold rain And as I stood there free and clear of all blame And as I stood there a new creation I became My Father in heaven hallowed be Thy name And all that time this is what You was saying Chorus
