I'll Get By
To the broken people tryin to make ends meet but can barely stand on their feet,
Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
To the kids who aint got no shoes on their feet, trying to figure out what to eat,
Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
This aint for Becky, this aint for soccer moms,
this is for kids of Somalia who aint got no moms
this is for teens listening to lil wayne
cuz CCM aint got the courage to make music for them
This is for the outcast, the underprivileged,
who cant seem to catch a break and stay diligent,
make the most out of the bad that life's given them,
choose to survive despite what dad did to them
stay vigilant, tho they know that this unjust world doesn't pay fair dividends,
child workers getting paid under bare minimum,
while the chairman/CEO makes a million
And this is for the jobless-homeless,
who keep hoping cuz they know this world isn't home,it's
just a place we all passin' through, if you're in jail, yeah this song's for you
To the single moms holding down a family of five
While puttin' in 95
Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
To the kids tryin' to raise themselves on their own
Cause mom and dad are never home
Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
This is for those who can't sell their homes
Flipped upside down
worth half of its loan
401k is gone
Economy's in a tank
So we look to credit cards and banks
And feed off of the lie
They says if we could just buy
Our way out of this mess
Then somehow maybe we could get by
Advertisers keep it larger than our appetite
Starving after what can't satisfy
But let me make a suggestion
Better yet a profession
We put to much stock in our earthly possessions
Our problem is way bigger than a recession
As a whole, we have lost our souls to our obsessions
But it's not too late to get back
To the reason we're alive
I promise you, I found IT
It's the reason I survive
That's why I stand tall, I can breath, touch the sky
I believe that I will get by
To the soldiers on the front lines risking their lives
trying to think about how survive,
Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
To the sons tryin' to hold it down to weather the storm
cause daddy is away at war,
Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
How long, do we keep on falling trying to get by on our own?
How long till we lift our eyes to the one who can lead us home?
To the billions of people who are mad at God,
cause most churches haven't done their job and hurt you badly,
yes it's a tragedy, you're looking at a casualty,
I've judged instead of love, you have every right to be mad at me
But please forgive us as we try to fix this,
but this time not because of selfish ambition,
this time because of Jesus who lives within us,
see, we are not religious we're just redeemed sinners
and He offers peace in the midst of affliction
and he is deliverance from the deepest addiction,
tho He may be hidden from your plain sight vision,
just look beneath the surface and you cannot miss him
As far as all our problems go I know I cant fix 'em just by
singing a song, so much has gone wrong,
tho change don't come easy, together we can be strong,
I was hoping we can all start by singing a along
To the broken people tryin' to make ends meet
but can barely stand on their feet, Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
To the kids who ain't got no shoes on their feet,
trying to figure out what to eat, Say "I'll get by"! (2x)
