[Intro]
This song right here
It's not for the ones who didn't make it
It's for the ones who did, I salute y'all, man
It ain't easy
To start on a journey, then no matter what happens y'all still remain
So again, salute
[Verse 1]
Met each other, made plans, fell in love, built families
Peace, war, struggle, pain, years later still standing
Had a lot of ups and downs, good and bad, off and on
Breaking up, making up, hurtful words, talking strong
Never lost ya passion or your internal hope
And no matter how tough it got you still held onto that rope
When most people slipped on the slope but jumped from the boat
Y'all foundation never broke and still today remain close
It's always good in the beginning, understanding and patience
But see when feelings start raising so do expectations
Had to learn each other's ways and make the proper adjustments
Kinda scared knowing everyone is not for the trusting
Haters hating from the sideline but y'all ain't listen
Family members, friends in ya business causing division
Arguments and disagreements, they was real but got fixed
So when we see 'em years later they be still in the mix so
[Hook]
Through the years, through the pain, through the drama, through the hard dates
Through the fights and arguments they with you always
Through the outside talking and the messy friends
Guess what? (What?)
Y'all stayed together through thick and thin (yeah)
Stayed together through thick and thin (stayed together)
Stayed together through thick and thin (I see ya)
Y'all still together through thick and thin
Huh
[Verse 2]
It’s hard to find somebody loyal who won’t ever flip or change up
The one who stayed down when financial problems came up
You was out of work but they took up the slack with nothin’ said
Never threw it in your face or held it over your head
When you don’t have your life in order, that’s a problem for some
They just see you for who you are and not who you can become
That word love, good to have someone who knows what it means
Stayed on your team when all you had was just your clothes and a dream
When help was needed, they’ll be on the way to save each other
Each one of you done did some dirt and still forgave each other
Got a connection so the jealous one’ll see y’all split
Got certain looks and inside jokes that just y’all get
Had some dysfunctional moments, yeah, you know it’s the truth
But any problems that you ever had stayed under that roof
A lot of folks didn’t approve of y’all relationship status
But long as y’all know what it is, people’s opinions don’t matter so
[Hook]
Through the years, through the pain, through the drama, through the hard dates
Through the fights and arguments they with you always
Through the outside talking and the messy friends
Guess what? (What?)
Y'all stayed together through thick and thin (yeah)
Stayed together through thick and thin (stayed together)
Stayed together through thick and thin (I see ya)
Y'all still together through thick and thin
Huh
[Verse 3]
They catch you before you can land, Superwoman, Superman
Been through all a few could stand
Might’ve even threw some hands
You don’t even know what keeps it going
What the hell is it?
Other baby mamas, other baby daddies, jail visits
All kinds of situations, AM to the PM
Sneakin’, checkin’ phones, side pieces in they DMs
The child they mighta had with someone else don’t even like you
The crazy ex who just won’t let ‘em go and tried to fight you
But you holdin’ on to claim that
Rollin’ on the same track
Got a crib, lived together, moved out, came back
Tore each other’s hearts out, attitude, smart mouths
Cussed each other out so many times that y’all done lost count
Had it worse, had it better, got two or three kids together
Fightin’, y’all ain’t trippin’, when it comes to that one, it’s whatever
From the outside lookin’ in, people wonder how y’all last
All of they relationships be playin’ out, that’s why they mad
[Hook]
Through the years, through the pain, through the drama, through the hard dates
Through the fights and arguments they with you always
Through the outside talking and the messy friends
Guess what? (What?)
Y'all stayed together through thick and thin (yeah)
Stayed together through thick and thin (stayed together)
Stayed together through thick and thin (I see ya)
Y'all still together through thick and thin
Huh
