How Can I Lose

(album: Family First - 2022)

After everything we been through
Time to leave it all behind in the rearview
The blood in my roots matches the dust on my boots
If I started with nothing then tell me, how can I lose?
(Tell me, how can I lose?)

I'd rather look out over these fields than a bunch of tall buildings
Breathing in the oxygen like it's meant to be, no ceilings
All my useful memories I got right here in my pocket
If it's too heavy to tote then I forgot it
I stay locked in on the main thing, that's God and my family
Even in my darkest times they never abandoned me
The rough road traveled, the tough loving made a man of me
I work for every crumb, ain't a damn thing was handed to me
So I had to take it

After everything we been through
Time to leave it all behind in the rearview
The blood in my roots matches the dust on my boots
If I started with nothing then tell me, how can I lose?
(Tell me, how can I lose?)
After everything we been through
Time to leave it all behind in the rearview
The blood in my roots matches the dust on my boots
If I started with nothing then tell me, how can I lose?
(Tell me, how can I lose?)

The concrete blocks never stops, there was blood on my knuckles
And never took a hand-out, them boys are still working doubles
Maintain a steady pace through the trials and the struggles
They ain't the kind you wanna find if you looking for trouble
They don't make 'em like they used to, I think it's the phone
Supposed to keep us connected but it keeps us alone
So country road, take me home back to where I was raised
Try to understand the past before I turn the page

After everything we been through
Time to leave it all behind in the rearview
The blood in my roots matches the dust on my boots
If I started with nothing then tell me, how can I lose?
(Tell me, how can I lose?)
After everything we been through
Time to leave it all behind in the rearview
The blood in my roots matches the dust on my boots
If I started with nothing then tell me, how can I lose?
(Tell me, how can I lose?)
