A Song I Wrote =)

[hot_sk8er_punk]

[Verse One]
His old man was a rebel yeller
Bad boy to the bone
He'd say, "Can't trust a colored feller."
He'd judge em' by the tone of their skin
He was raised to think like his dad
Narrow-minded, full of hate
On the road to nowhere fast
Til the Grace of God got in the way
Then he saw the light and hit his knees
And cried and said a prayer
Rose up a brand new man
And left the old one right there

[Chorus]
Here's to the strong
Thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope...
Some people change
Against all odds
Against the grain
Love finds a way
Some people change

[Verse Two]
She was born with her mother's habit
Guess you could say it's in her blood
She hates it that she's gotta have it
She fills her glass up
And she'd love to kill that bottle
But all she can think about is a better life
A second chance
And everyone she's lettin' down
She throws that bottle down

[Chorus]
Here's to the strong
Thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope...
Some people change
Against all odds
Against the grain
Love finds a way
Some people change

[Verse Three]
Thank God for those who make it
Let them be the light
Some people change...

[Chorus]
Here's to the strong
Thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope...
Some people change
Against all odds
Against the grain
Love finds a way
Some people change

[Repeat Chorus to Fade]
