We Gon A Make It

I'm waking up and getting read cause I'm late for school
 I pour the milk and dig the roaches out my cereal
 Right now it's really hard what we going through
 Is mom gonna come home? Dad what we gonna do?
 I see the pain in your eyes I know it's hard for you
 I want to cry and just hide is all I want to do
 You pick me up and hold me tight right next to you
 Tell me it's gonna be alright we gonna make it through
 But everyday at school I'm just feeling like the fool
 I can't afford the latest clothes or the hottest shoes
 I'm eight years old and all that I want to do
 Is get the new G.I. Joe before nobody else do
 I start crying when I'm in my bed and just lying
 It tears me up inside at night when my parents fighting
 I'm just trying just to make it to the silver lining
 But this is what my pops told me every single night he said
 We gonna make it, yes we gonna make it
 We gonna make it, yes we gonna make it
 It's Friday afternoon it's just another weekend
 And I don't want to see my mom I don't like her new boyfriend
 It's like every single day I start wondering
 Will they get back together, will we be a family again
 I asked my dad now just the same question
 He just got quiet shook his head and never said nothing
 That weekend I said the same thing to my mother
 But she said nothing either now sometimes I wonder
 If they use me just to get back at one another
 I'm stuck in the middle of this war so I duck for cover
 How can anyone love me if they don't love each other
 It all got changed in a fourth grade summer
 They finally got divorced my whole world crumbled
 Now is it really over now is what my mind wondered
 So the court gave my mom full custody
 And as my pops kissed me goodbye this what he said to me
 Baby boy don't you worry about a single thing
 Baby boy daddy takes care of everything
 Baby body don't you know that you're gonna make it
 Here I am it's like six years later
 And I struggle every way now to make it as a teenager
 And every day I wake up I just want to change the
 Way that I be living cause it's killing me I hate the
 Stuff that I'm dealing with can't I ever just escape the
 Life that I been given and it's effects my behavior
 But I started forgiving on the day I met my Savior
 And I started living on the day that I gave ya
 All my old pain and I watched it all change
 Call on Your name while I watched my old ways
 Disappear along with these fears and old shame
 You wiped away the tears that used to fall like cold rain
 And as I stood there free and clear of all blame
 And as I stood there a new creation I became
 My Father in heaven hallowed be Thy name
 And all that time this is what You was saying
