# **We Had Enough** **[Spoken Intro]** Yeah… We didn’t always have much But what we had was each other And that’s gotta mean somethin’… right? **[Verse 1]** My mama worked three jobs with kids Had little, still she gave us this Hard-earned truth from her mistakes Nothing in this world comes free “No one’s your mama ’cept for me” “And watch your back for smiling snakes” The Piper always gets his due The truth will always pull you through That’s what Jesus said, after all She raised us hard, she raised us right To keep our faith, stand up and fight And get back up each time we’d fall **[Chorus]** I remember those days like yesterday When the years start slipping away I go back home and open up that chest Take those pictures in my hand Try to hold all that I can And thank my mama for giving us her best We didn’t have the finest stuff But we had love, and we had enough **[Verse 2]** We grew up poor, but left our door Wide open for one person more Our table wasn’t built on greed Always moving, changing schools Laughing, dancing, breaking rules And learning how to fight when there was need It sure as hell was never perfect We were misfits and rejected But had a roof, a bed, and food And living proof is standing here That strong mamas through the hardest years Can turn what little into something good **[Bridge]** Now every picture in that bin Shows deeper things I missed back then But every smile upon our face was real It was harder than we knew She made the little feel like two And folks, my mama is the real deal She gave us boys all that we needed And I reckon she succeeded With what little her young heart knew Brother, brother, brother and mother Somehow we all had each other And a chest full of memories to look through **[Final Chorus]** I remember those days like yesterday Now I know they’ll never fade away They’re every laugh she locked inside that chest I take those pictures in my hand And finally understand My mama gave us nothing but her best We didn’t have the finest stuff But we had love, and we had enough **[Spoken Outro]** So no… we didn’t have that much But what we had was more than enough Brother, brother, brother and mother… What we are Is a family.
