Didn't I Songtext
Didn′t I make ya 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 bein' back should be so simple
But I keep gettin' these big signals
From everyone
Why do folks sit and judge me
Who ain′t seen what I′ve seen
Or did what I done?
Didn't I burn
Didn′t I bleed
Enough
For you?
I've faced your fears
Felt pain
So you won′t have to
Yeah, 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 they′re black and blue
I thought God was on our side
Weren′t we supposed to be the good guys
That would never lose?
Cuz' I don′t see no ticker, tape
Or 5-mile parade sayin'
"Thank you, son"
Just folks that sit and judge me
Who ain′t seen what I've seen
Or did What I done
Didn′t I burn
Didn't I bleed
Enough
For you?
I've faced your fears
Felt pain
So you won′t have to.
Yeah, didn′t I do my best
And wasn't home here when I left?
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 bein' back should be so simple
But I keep gettin' these big signals
From everyone
Why do folks sit and judge me
Who ain′t seen what I′ve seen
Or did what I done?
Didn't I burn
Didn′t I bleed
Enough
For you?
I've faced your fears
Felt pain
So you won′t have to
Yeah, 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 they′re black and blue
I thought God was on our side
Weren′t we supposed to be the good guys
That would never lose?
Cuz' I don′t see no ticker, tape
Or 5-mile parade sayin'
"Thank you, son"
Just folks that sit and judge me
Who ain′t seen what I've seen
Or did What I done
Didn′t I burn
Didn't I bleed
Enough
For you?
I've faced your fears
Felt pain
So you won′t have to.
Yeah, didn′t I do my best
And wasn't home here when I left?
