[00:23.076] We've seen the best and we've seen the worst
[00:28.384] Yeah, we been blessed and we've been cursed
[00:33.806] Your mamas know that I love you both, but
[00:39.682] They won't tell you that I tried
[00:44.709] I try every day of my life
[00:51.509]
[01:09.239] And it's been a test to make it here
[01:14.632] My hope's faded through the years
[01:20.038] But I've been holding on to the prayer and I hope that some day soon
[01:25.746] God sees my efforts and my pain
[01:31.196] Shows me my efforts aren't in vain
[01:33.429]
[01:35.146] And I've played the part and I've played the fool, and I've been used
[01:40.424] And I let them get the best of me, but it was all for you
[01:45.801] For what it's worth, I never meant you any pain
[01:51.317] Just so you know, I love you both just the same
[01:57.436]
[02:17.007] We've seen the best and we've seen the worst
[02:22.312] Yeah we been blessed and we've been cursed
[02:27.780] But it's all been worth it, just to watch you grow boys
[02:33.172] And I'll be a daddy 'til I die
[02:38.023] When I die I'll keep the angels by your side
[02:40.799]
[02:42.877] Well, I've played the part and I've played the fool, and I've been used
[02:48.004] And I let them get the best of me, but it was all for you
[02:53.318] For what it's worth, I never meant you any pain
[02:58.783] Just so you know, I love you both just the same
[03:03.830]
[03:04.194] Well, I've played the part and I've played the fool, and I've been used
[03:09.523] And I let them get the best of me, but it was all for you
[03:14.805] For what it's worth, I never meant you any pain
[03:20.165] And just so you know, I love you both just the same
