Didn't I
didn't i make you proud
go and lay my life down, when you called my name
i thought i stood for somethin, was doin the right thing when i went away
now being back should be so simple but i keep getting these mixed signals from
everyone
why do people sit and judge me
who ain't seen what i seen or did what i've done
didn't i burn didn't i bleed enough for you
i faced your fears, felt pain so you won't have to
ya didn't i do my best
and wasn't home here when i left
i've seen boys fall to pieces
grown men cry out for jesus, til theye black and blue
i thought god was on our side, weren we supposed to be the good guys that
would
never lose
cause i dont see no ticker tape
or five mile parades,sayin"thank you son"
just folks that sit and judge me
who ain't seen what i've seen or did what i've done
didn't i burn, didn't i bleed enough for you
i faced your fears, felt pain so you won have to
ya didn't i do my best
and wasn't home here when i left
