OneDayRo - Song for You Lyrics

For all of y'all putting in work that they never saw
This song's for you
For everyone striving, but haven't yet got the call
This song's for you
Anyone who's fighting there back against the wall
This song's for you
For those who keep getting up every time you fall
This song's for you
Shoutout to yall Shoutout to yall shoutout to yall
This is a song for you... all

My friend, they ask why you're such a mess
You go to college and you work giving your best
Need to work more, but can't write less
Need the pay, as well as the grade success
Got big dreams, some huge aspirations
Remember the day you arrived at orientation
I saw that new spark, it was a new motivation
But how do you find the time to have an inspiration
Your time is stolen by all that and all this
You don't even like your job, I know you wanna quit
But you keep pushing, you want your parents to see
You could say "look mom I got a college degree
Aren't you so proud of me
It's one step closer to what I wanna be"
Students before you understand the drive
Working for the ones who cared for you when you were five
And all the new people who came into your life
Who made a difference, and respects what you like
It's an off day from school, you work 12-8
6 page essay due tonight, it's marked down if it's late
Working hard till midnight, barely get it on time
You work in the morning, aw man what a grind
And You've got a presentation coming up soon
It's a big one, no rest tonight, no blanket cocoon
You working so hard, we don't mind the complaints
You've got a lot on your plate, just know you're doing great
Keep pushing, and to everyone out there who does what you do
This is a pat on the back, this song is for you

For all of y'all putting in work that they never saw
This song's for you
For everyone striving, but haven't yet got the call
This song's for you
Anyone who's fighting there back against the wall
This song's for you
For those who keep getting up every time you fall
This song's for you
Shoutout to yall Shoutout to yall shoutout to yall
This is a song for you... all

You grew up so much, now you're raising us
The ones who we put all of our trust in
We respect all of the years that you've been hustling
Focused on us while your old passion is rusting
Working your jobs, paying all of the bills
Yet you find the time to give us attention still
Even if you have to calm down with the pills
We can't fully understand all of the power of will
That you use to make sure we living good
Using every ounce of energy cause you think you should
Want us to do everything that you just never could
We can't grip what's in your head, but I wish we would
One kid or more kids, either way it's a struggle
All the costs and care is just a lot to juggle
Responsibilities sky high, 7 different payments
No money for you, your check came and went
For us you always work so extremely hard
We're more than your world, we your shining stars
That won't mean much until the kids grow up
For now you give us remedies whenever we throw up
Whenever we need you, all you ever did was show up
More than music, but in life y'all taught me how to switch the flow up
Taught us how to respect and be a good person
As well as help others whenever they are hurting
Any problems, y'all were always there to mediate it
All I could say is I look back and appreciate it
As your kids, we can never understand what parents do
Until we become them ourselves, at least that much is true
This can be any guardian of yours it doesn't matter who
We are grateful for everything, please know this song is for all of you

For all of y'all putting in work that they never saw
This song's for you
For everyone striving, but haven't yet got the call
This song's for you
Anyone who's fighting there back against the wall
This song's for you
For those who keep getting up every time you fall
This song's for you
Shoutout to yall Shoutout to yall shoutout to yall
This is a song for you... all
