No father figure in the house
and i m wonderin how i m gonna work it out
oh my friends keep on tellin me how i don t need that man but they don t really understand
there s far too many presures in reality but dealing with the pain and stress and poverty
and i gotta be myself because there s nobody else for me (ohhhh)
(heading there with me)sometimes it takes a different kind of love to raise a child
(so don t give up)so don t give up
(when presures come down)sometimes it takes a different kind of dream to make you smile
(so raise it up)so raise
(hang in there with me)sometimes we need another helping hand to show the ways
(so don t give up) so don t give up
(when presures come down)sometimes it seems inpossible and that s why we pray
(so raise it up) we raise
[HOPE] seems to be nothing left for me mommas gone daddy didnt wanna be and now im all by myself wonderin where is love or
