Me and my wife had a few problems |
|
We thought that nothing could solve them |
|
Listening to family members and so called friends |
|
Man I tell you that's just how the devil creeps in |
|
We were separated at least for a month or two |
|
She was wilding in the clubs |
|
And I was out there doing wrong too |
|
And we would walk around the house |
|
Putting each other down |
|
I mean right in front of the kids |
|
We would curse each other out |
|
Then I was in a bad accident and almost lost my life |
|
And guess who was there for me, my wife |
