As she fills her glass up
Narrow mind full of hate
Don't give up hope, some people change
And cried and said a prayer
He'd say, "Can't trust that other fella"
She throws that bottle down
He was raised to think like his dad
Here's to the strong, thanks to the brave
She was born with her mother's habit
Love finds a way, some people change
Here's to the strong, thanks to the brave
Let them be the light, let them be the light
Love finds a way, some people change
He'd judge 'em by the tone of their skin
(Some people change)
On the road to no where fast
Rose up a brand new man
She hates that she's gotta have it
But all she can think about
Here's to the strong, thanks to the brave
You could say, it's in her blood
Till the grace of God got in the way
Against all odds, against the grain
Don't give up hope, some people change
Thank God for those who make it
Against all odds, against the grain
Then he saw the light and hit his knees
She'd love to kill that bottle
Is a, a better life, a second chance
Left the old one right there
Don't give up hope, some people change
Against all odds, against the grain
And everyone she's letting down
