Best Father Around

He took everything from us,

but he let us keep our fear

He robbed the little picture called a family,

taken long ago, went away for so many years

And it was as though

he took joy in listening to our tears

And he would never apologize,

cause his pride was blinding

But God is my true father

He will never let me down

My God is unchanging

He's gotta be, He's got to be,

The best father around

He'd cover his lies with scriptures,

and he let us believe every word

Growin' up, for me, wasn't easy

No, No

Like nothing you've ever seen or ever heard

My mom is the bravest woman that I know

She held fast to God's love,

and never let us go

That's why you know

That God is our true father

He will never let us down

My God is unchanging

He's gotta be, He's got to be,

The best father around

I had the choice of cocaine,

or I could have been a heroin

But God's love took a hold of me

That's why I know,

And we know,

And you should know

That God is our true father

He will never let me down

Our God is unchanging

He's gotta be, He's got to be,

The best father around

Around, around, around,

Around
