I wanna be great man, and I know why in my life
Ain't it strange
I worked so hard to bring joy to my life
But then there's days
That something just don't feel right inside
But see, I'm not complaining
I'ma reach my aims, yeah
I'm just contemplating
See, I was told
Anything I put my mind to, I could do
But they made it known
Be careful what you wish for
It might come true
And now I'm far from home
Got my man and my baby boys on the phone
Feeling so alone
Despite it all
I'm in it for the long haul, and I'm grateful (oh yeah)
Despite it all (uh-uh)
Even through the pitfalls, I stand tall (I stand tall, yeah)
When it rains, it pours (uh-mm)
'Cause there were times
When there was nothing I could call my own
And I couldn't ignore
This pillar-to-post-life just can't go on no more (no more)
To knock down these doors
And go for what I'm longing for
There was more in store
They say blessed are those
Who struggle just to maintain day to day
And when you're feeling low
And nothing seems it's going your way
How could you know after these blows
You reap what you sow
The seeds will grow
Despite it all
I'm in it for the long haul, and I'm grateful
Despite it all (yeah)
Even through the pitfalls, I stand tall, yeah (hey babe)
Suddenly, there were changes
I saw my soulmate through the strangers
It caught me unprepared when he was sent to me
But I knew right then and there that we were meant to be
And then that moment changed to daily life
I bore two sons and I became his wife
Part of me is still an artist living out a dream
Even though it's getting hard, I wouldn't want to leave
'Cause this is my reality, yeah
This is my reality
Despite it all
I'm in it for the long haul, and I'm so grateful
Despite it all (yeah)
Even through the pitfalls, I stand tall
Let me tell you folks, despite it all
I'm in it for the long haul, and I'm so grateful
Despite it all (yeah)
Even through the pitfalls, I stand tall
Despite it all (what was meant to be, it was meant for me)
I'm in it for the long haul (I wouldn't change a thing, this is my reality)
Despite it all (this is my reality, this is my reality)
Even through the pitfalls, I stand tall
Ain't it strange
I worked so hard to bring joy to my life
