Can anyone hear what I'm sayin'
I wonder if God hears me prayin'
I was doin' my best when y'all up and left
Now I'm stuck in this game that you're playin'

I tried to be a good brother
A good father, good son, and good friend
In my life I tried to do what was right
I would do it all over again

I have always been kind and fair minded
To treat others like I'd like to be
To live by the code and take the hard road
Good things don't come easy to me

When push comes to shove I shared all my love
now I know that I have been cheated
It is no surprise it turned out to be lies
I will not be defeated

if God hears me prayin' does he get what I'm sayin'
does he know that my heart has been breakin'
these times have been rough, I can't ask it enough
put an end to these dues I've been payin'

will my life turn out right in the end
can I forgive what I cannot defend
I try to do right and pray every night
to do like my daddy said

You gotta' have faith
it's the only way out
You gotta' have faith
to stand up and shout
You gotta' have faith
You gotta' have faith


For Female singers Verse 2...

I tried to be a good sister
A good mother, good child, and good friend
In my life I tried to do what was right
I would do it all over again
