Intro:
(spoken): Stories. We all got em.
chorus:
We ve been down to the bottom.
Stories, we got em when we hit rock bottom.
If you been there, put your hands in the air,
to let the lost know that someone cares.
Cause we ve been down to the bottom.
Stories, we got em when we hit rock bottom.
If you been there, put your hands in the air,
and let somebody know that the Most High cares.
Verse 1:
I never knew that it would feel like this
when the two that raised you and call it quits.
Nobody told me bout the emptiness
when the place you call home is closed for business.
I push the pain down I gotta get by,
always knowin in my heart that it aint gonna fly.
Rock bottom s never felt so near before,
and if pain is God s megaphone it s loud and clear.
So hold me now, Father, human love aint enough.
I ve failed and been failed by the people I love.
But Your faithful arms, they surround me
and any other soul who has to sail those seas of a broken family
Chorus:
See, we ve been down to the bottom.
Stories, we got em when we hit rock bottom.
If you been there, put your hands in the air,
to let the lost know that someone cares.
Cause we ve been down to the bottom.
Stories, we got em when we hit rock bottom.
If you been there, put your hands in the air,
and let somebody know that the Most High cares.
Verse:
Been so many times that I been close to rock bottom,
tryin to look for answers but nobody s got em.
Like the time my mother looked me in the eye,
tryin not to cry, tellin me the cancer might cause her to die.
How can this be? I thought the God love me.
So why would He try to take my mother from me?
And as I cry myself to sleep at night,
holding on my pillow tight,
he spoke to me and said the everything gonna be all right.
So I tried to fight all the pain that it caused.
I try to move on and I try to stay strong.
So put your hands up if y all are feelin me.
And put your hands up for ev ryone to see.
So put your hands up. We all a family.
So put your hands up in unity, in unity.
Bridge:
We ve been down to the bottom!
Stories we got em!
If you been there, put your hands in the hair,
put your hands in the air.
Verse 3:
I ve been there too,
when ev rything falls apart,
and the best you can do is get through each day,
wonderin will this never end?
Is is always gonna be this way?
And the greastest lie you ever been told
is you re the only one to walk this road.
And now you ll never see the light of dawn,
so we came together to say( together to say) hold on.
Cause we ve been there and found our way home.
We promise you that you re not on your own.
One day this will pass, God will see us all through.
God will see us all pass through.
Closing:
If you been there, put you your hands in the air,
put your hands in the air, put your hands in the air.
THE END
