I wish I was
Strong enough
To lift not one but
Both of us
Someday I will be
Strong enough
To lift not one but
Both of us (uh)
Ever thought about losing it?
When your money is all gone and you lose your whip (ooh-ooh)
You might lose your grip
When the landlord 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 (ooh-ooh)
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 (ooh-ooh)
And the way we talk, and the way we act
And the clothes we bought, how much that cost?
Does it even really matter?
'Cause if life is an uphill battle (ooh-ooh)
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? (Ooh-ooh)
Everybody in a #1 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 ball (ooh-ooh)
Do it one time for the underdogs
Sincerely yours, from one of y'all
I wish I was
Strong enough to
Lift not one but
Both of us
Someday I will be
Strong enough to
Lift not one but
Both of us
I can feel your pain
I can feel your struggle (ooh-ooh)
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 (ooh-ooh)
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 up underneath get so deep (ooh-ooh)
And you feel like you're just another person
Getting lost in the crowd, way up high in the nosebleeds, uh
Because we've both been there, yeah, both of us
But we still stand tall, with our shoulders up (ooh-ooh)
And even though we always against the odds
These are the things that have molded us
And if life hadn't chosen us
Sometimes I wonder where I would have wound up
'Cause if it was up to me
I'd make a new blueprint then build it from the ground up
Hey, but if it's 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
I wish I was
Strong enough to
Lift not one but
Both of us
Someday I will be
Strong enough to
Lift not one but
Both of us
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
