I've seen a lot of things in my life

A lot of ups and downs

Made a lot of mistakes

No matter what you've always been by my side

You've always been my best friend



You're the love of my life

You're everything to me

You've never left my side

I love you so much

You're my best friend



[Verse 1]

Since the beginning of time, all you did was bless men

Too young to understand but now you my best friend

How could they doubt you, never think about you

Don't they know nothing's possible without you?

Faith without fear, that's how they raised me

Words of man kill but never phase me

Grateful for wisdom that you gave me

But still I'm like: "Dear God, I wonder, could you save me?"

Too much sinning, gotta be more than plush living

Gotta be more than grabbing nines to buck tin in

Gotta be more than just to lust women

Gotta be more than platinum Rolexes, 600's and crushed linen

Praise your name, I know some of them hate to do

Judgment day, don't they know they can't escape your crew?

I'm just trying to live right and pray you take me through

And with this song, I dedicate to you

My Lord



[Chorus]

Lord, you mean the world to me

Before I was born, you chose me

You always hear me when I'm calling

Even catch me when I'm falling

You're the closest one to me

I surrender all to thee

I want the whole wide world to see

That we've always been and we'll always be

Best friends



[Verse 2]

Sometimes I reminisce and wonder how I made it this far

Because of you, I'm me, so you the real star

Your hindsight, the time's right to get my mind tight

Then give it to you and let it shine bright

My best friend only know how to teach the truth

Plant the seeds of life and let them eat the fruit

Can't you see that He spread love for you

Shed blood for you, cry for, and die for you

Willies with Mac millies know how you get down

We know the drama you bring whenever you hit town

Just remember when you pray, God is love

Gracious, merciful, forgive even the hardest thugs

Life as we know it, it all begins with Him

Life as we know it, it all ends with Him

If I was you I would never try to pretend with Him

He might spazz and blow it, I'm best friends with him



Repeat Chorus



[Verse 3]

Been two and a half years, since my man Big passed

Two and a half years, since my world crashed

I needed help, God gave me the power

Gave me the strength to go face to face with my darkest hour

Looked me in the eyes and ask "What you doing unhappy?"

"Don't you know why I'm here?" and started shooting at me

Back to the wall, is my faith gonna play out

Never wavered once, gave me no way out

Your time to die don't even stress the date

You're coming with me your soul I'm next to take

I told him "I'm too much blessed with faith"

"And living for Christ" and then he said "Manifest the great"

All of a sudden, what I'm remembering

Ground started to shake, everything trembling

The power of the truth was shooting through my Timberlands

Here was my Lord Jesus Christ, my best friend again, come on



Repeat Chorus



[Said Over Chorus]

You mean everything to me

You've been with me from day one

Even when I thought nobody was there

You were there

You're my best friend

I love you like no other

There is no feeling like this in the world

If you can relate to what I'm feeling

Put your hands in the air for me

Let me see you

Naw, matter of fact, clap your hands for me

Clap your hands, come on

Thank you Jesus

You always hear me when I'm calling

Always catch me when I fall, yeah

I surrender all to thee

I want the whole world to see

That you've always been, you'll always be

My best friend

I love you Jesus

Thank you, forgive me for my tresspasses

As I forgive those who tresspass against me

Thank you
