The Hardest Thing

The Hardest Thing - VanZant

He's got a mountain of bills he's got dirt on his hands

There's been three generations that's been workin' the land

Here's his granddaddy's ghost sayin'

Son everyone gotta face the long hard truth

And it might be up to you to do

The hardest thing you'll ever have to do

Holdin' on lettin' go right or wrong it's hard to know

You do your best and leave the rest

To chance fate God or grace

Whatever gets you through

She can't stand the fear in her little boy's eyes

Dad has come home actin' crazy too many times

My mamma's on the telephone line saying

Child sometimes you gotta think about mournin' you

And you might be forced to chose

The hardest thing you'll ever have to do

Holdin' on lettin' go right or wrong it's hard to know

You do your best leave the rest

To chance fate God or grace

Whatever gets you through whatever gets you through

Now everybody's gonna find themselves a fork in the road

No clear direction wondering which way to go

And it hurts like hell your conscience burns

Any way you turn you lose

Sometimes just getting through might be

The hardest thing you'll ever have to do

Holdin' on lettin' go right or wrong it's hard to know

You do your best and leave the rest

To chance fate God or grace

Whatever gets you through whatever gets you through yeah

The hardest thing

The hardest thing

It might be your hardest thing to do yeah

Hardest thing the hardest thing

The hardest thing

You just might face your own truth

The hardest thing the hardest thing
