We can’t win for losin’
Fightin’ every step of the way
Battles we shouldn’t be choosin’
Prices too high for us to pay
Nobody told me it’s like this out here
Is that what it takes
It takes everything
It costs us all we have
This love
I can hear the voice of my mother
Echoing down through the years
Saying love your sisters and brothers
That’s why we’re all put here
Nobody told me it’s like this out here
Is that what it takes
It takes everything
It costs us all we have
This love
Is that what it takes
It takes everything
It costs us all we have
This love
This love
This love
