And I'll be there for you
I know it's hard for us
I love the way we knew
Before they broke our trust
And I'll be there for you
I know we don't have much
That don't matter to me
All I need, all I need, all I need, all I want is your love
On the nights that no one's there, you always are
When the phone calls get ignored, I know you're never far
And every time my heart aches, you're always there for me to vent
So when the world puts it's weight on my chest
I breathe with your breaths
And from the times I was broke, up until the time I was rich
You never switched how you treated me, you see me the way I wish
You always hold me to the highest standards, unafraid to let me fall
Because when I get back up, you know it's better just to dust me off
And let me learn by example, and toughen up my thoughts
Sometimes you've got to touch the stove just to know it's hot
And you can tell me not to touch it a hundred times
But until my skin is burned, I'll never know what the pain is like
And no, I never want that pain again, that's like our relationship
Every time when things get tough, I think of parting ways, but then
I think about the days before we ever existed
And realize, I couldn't last without you a single minute
And I'll be there for you
I know it's hard for us
I love the way we knew
Before they broke our trust
And I'll be there for you
I know we don't have much
That don't matter to me
All I need, all I need, all I need, all I want is your love
So many times, I've gotten messages from fans
Sayin' that I saved their life, sayin' I'm the man
Sayin' that without me and this music that I make
That their life would've ended long ago, and that's hard to take
Because I know how many times I've tried to take my own life
And you're the one that stopped me and told me to go home and write
So really, it's you, you're the one that we should all thank
You brought me closer to my family and ever closer to faith
You brought me into the life of a family that lost their son
But would comfort their other one when my records were spun
And to my homie Ben, just know you've done much more for me
Than I could ever do for you, and I know that's hard to see
You made me fall back in love with the one I wrote this song about
And reminded me of the pain from the stove inside of my house
I'd rather live one day with her than a thousand without her laugh
I call her "The love of my life", you can call her "Rap"
And I'll be there for you
I know it's hard for us
I love the way we knew
Before they broke our trust
And I'll be there for you
I know we don't have much
That don't matter to me
All I need, all I need, all I need, all I want is your love
