The Hardest Thing

He's got a mountain of bills
 He's got dirt on his hands
 There's been 3 generations that's been working the land
 Here's his grandaddy's ghost saying "Son everyone gotta face their own hard truth
 And might be up to you
 To do the hardest thing you'll ever have to do"
 Holdin' on
 Lettin' go
 Right or wrong
 It's hard to know
 You do your best
 Leave the rest to
 Chance
 Fate
 God or grace
 Whatever gets you through
 She can't stand the fear
 In her little boy's eyes
 Daddy's come home acting crazy
 Too many times
 Mama's on the telephone line sayin', "Child sometimes you gotta think about more than you
 And you might be forced to choose the hardest thing you'll ever have to do"
 Holdin' on
 Lettin' go
 Right or wrong
 It's hard to know
 You do your best
 Leave the rest to
 Chance
 Fate
 God or grace
 Whatever gets you through
 Whatever gets you through
 Now everyone's gonna find themselves a
 Fork in the road
 No clear direction
 Wonderin' which way to go
 And it hurts like hell
 But your concious burns
 Anyway you turn you lose
 Sometime's just gettin' through
 Might be the hardest thing you'll ever have to do
 Holdin' on
 Lettin' go
 Right or wrong
 It's hard to know
 You do your best
 Leave the rest to
 Chance
 Fate
 God or grace
 Whatever gets you through
 Whatever gets you through
 (Hardest thing, hardest thing)
 Might be your hardest thing to do
 (Hardest thing, hardest thing)
 (Hardest thing, hardest thing)
 You just might face your own truth
