By My Side Lyrics

Hoods By My Side

I've been down before
so I chose to drink it away
used to wake up pour it down
hurt the ones I love everyday
today's a new day
a fresh start for me
now look through sober eyes
at the life I've made
love-almost threw away
not gonna lose this time
gotta think straight
fight for what's mine
too many times I've chosen the wrong path
stumbled my life through
over and over again
I've seen the look of pain on your face
I hope it never comes back
found love in my best friend
you stood by through it all
until the end a true friend
always by my side
by my side, by my side
by my side, been down before
over and over again
stumbled my life through
I'm stronger now that I have you
