Lyrics
0:35Sun bleached flies sitting in the windowsill
0:43Waiting for the day they escape
0:51They talk all about that money and how their babies are always changing
1:00While they're breathing in the poison of the pain
1:10What I wouldn't give to be in Church this Sunday
1:18Listening to the choir so heartfelt all singing
1:26God loves you but not enough to save you
1:34So baby girl good luck taking care of yourself
1:43So I said fine 'cause that's how my daddy raised me
1:52If they strike once then you just hit 'em twice as hard
2:01But in the end if I bend under the weight that they gave me
2:10Then this heart would break and fall as twice as far
2:38We all know how it goes
2:47The more it hurts the less it shows
2:55But I still feel like they all know
2:59And that's why I can never go back home
3:11And I spend my life watching it go by from the sidelines
3:29And God I've tried but I think it's about time I put up a fight
3:51If they strike once then you just hit 'em twice as hard
4:02But I always knew that in the end no one was coming to save me
4:12So I just prayed and I keep praying and praying and praying
4:30If it's meant to be then it will be
5:01So I met him there and told him I believe
5:15Singing if it's meant to be then it'll be
5:18If it's meant to be then it will be
5:25Singing if it's meant to be then it will be
