We All Go Through

My daddy warned me
About these boys that don't do what they should
About these boys that don't mean any good
He knew I'd meet some, he knew that I would
Since I was little he would take me
on dates, bring flowers, and he'd pay
Show me I'm a princess everyday
Now that I'm older all the things he's taught me stayed
Many boys have come my way
Still my standards will not change
Though I won't say any names
These boys they like to play games
These boys they should be ashamed
And that's all I'm gonna say

Things won't always, always be simple
You will face things, some couldn't live through
But we all go through things just the same

So I thank God for the greatest daddy
I thank God for a praying mother
I thank God that they love their daughter
And we know the Father
So I thank God for the greatest daddy
I thank God for a praying mother
I thank God that they love their daughter
And we know the Father

My mama told me
That the world is not your friend
Hard times come, but they do end
And in Him I should depend
Since I was little
Every morning she would pray
Never ever ever wanted me to experience pain
Now that I'm older
I know nothing lasts always
Prayer is running through my veins
Like it's in my DNA
I face trials everyday
At times my strength starts to fade
Although this may sound cliché
God has always made a way

Things won't always, always be simple
You will face things, some couldn't live through
But we all go through things just the same

So I thank God for the greatest daddy
I thank God for a praying mother
I thank God that they love their daughter
And we know the Father
So I thank God for the greatest daddy
I thank God for a praying mother
I thank God that they love their daughter
And we know the Father

We all go through things
We all go through
We all go through things
We all go through

So I thank God for the greatest daddy
I thank God for a praying mother
I thank God that they love their daughter
And we know the Father
