Best Love

(album: Holy Cross - 2013)

The best kind of love is found
When you're not looking
It comes in those who play the roles
That you least expect them to
It's only truly true if you don't have to ask for it
True friends come disguised
And go beyond the call of duty
Take for example my buddy
He's a brother of mine
Recognize my cousin
You'll see he's like a brother to me
I got a good friend that looks out for me
Like a father figure
Found me something that is better
Due to distant relatives
Sometimes I lay awake at night crying
Cause I lost my best friend
If you had a true friend
I'm sorry and you know I feel for you
But me I lost someone who I can talk to
So much deeper then I talk to you
And it makes me feel like a part of me is dead
Take into account "exhibit a"
She's my mother
She looks to me to protect younger kin
It's a family thing
Every son would fight
For his sisters and brothers
But you're the man of the house
When daddy's gonna stop at nothing
