The Hope
(Chorus)

I'm not gonna marry the one I can live with/
I'm gonna marry the one I can't live without/
My best friend and the one I look to/
My shining star and my guiding light/
She will have my heart and my entire life/
My only car and a place to put here head at night/
My all in all and the shoulder I cry on/
When you fall for us both I will fight on/

I will love you when you seem unlovable/
I will hug you when you think your unhuggable/
I will die for you cause you live with me/
A life like this is how it's meant to be/
I'll stay up and pray in the dead of night/
For you safety and for your life/
Its my pledge, honor, and goal in life/
That I represent Christ dear future wife/

(Verse 1))

Dear future wife I don't know you yet/
I hope your doing fine with no regret/
I'm just waiting for the day I pass you/
Waiting for the day that I can ask you/
To be mine with the light behind you/
Silhouetting your hair as I try to/
Pull out the ring and out it on your finger/
These are the thoughts that always linger/
Won't lie it's been hard to focus on the present day/
I keep thinking on a future moment/
Trina prep for you and a family from the get-go has been my main component/
Got some money in the bank i've been saving up so well never ever have to loan it/
Trina fix my spiritual faults I don't want you to marry someone broken/

I been praying for you until the day is due/
I will always always wait for you/
Which to be honest has been hard/
That's one of the biggest things I hate to do/
Never been one to wait around, or wait now/
Asking myself wait? Wait how?/
It's the same cloud it's the same problem/
In the same part of the same brain/
That wants to carry you across the threshold/ where we both live in the same place/
But I'll be here waiting for the day/
Waiting for the day I can look you in the eye/
Not only ask you to be my wife/
But to also ask you if you would be my bride/
Ask you if you would be in my life/
For better for worse through the joy and the strife/

Nothing is a simple that's a simple fact/
But what goes a long way are the little acts/
The prayers at night when you scared with fright/
And it becomes apparent you are scared to fight/
I will fight for you and hold you close/
Hold you to me tight in the highs and lows/
I suppose this sounds crazy to some that listen/
But your dad will be the one with the decision/
No one talks this way anymore it's all but foreign/
But so are most things that I deem important/
Most men wanna go out and buy a chick magnet/
But I bought a dad car without a single gadget/
I'm just waiting till I look back in the backseat/
And here our children in the back laughing/
Even though happiness is what I'm lacking/
The purpose of life is not to be happy/

(Chorus)

I will love you when you seem unlovable/
I will hug you when you think your unhuggable/
I will die for you cause you live with me/
A life like this is how it's meant to be/
I'll stay up and pray in the dead of night/
For you safety and for your life/
Its my pledge, honor, and goal in life/
That I represent Christ dear future wife/

(Verse 2)

I know we won't always agree/
Or always see things in life eye to eye/
But I'm not looking for a clone of me/
I want the kinda marriage that sanctifies/
Marriage is always a working progress/
That has with it a lifetime contract/
The best days of my life are ahead of me/
Sometimes that's what I forget to see/
I'm impatient but I'm just being honest/
I would die for you and that's my promise/
I've given my life for you and our family/
I pray I continue to become more manly/
To be all I can be to love with no plan b/
For me to understand you and you understand me/
Live like its heaven on earth/
Love like we've never been hurt/

I'll treat you like gold in a world of dirt/
Won't lie sometimes I feel unworthy/
Don't ever worry about being good enough/
Don't ever question if you look up to snuff/
We won't be broken forever just broken together/
I will never allow us to be hopeless or severed/
When you fall to the ground I will stand with you/
All I ask is you understand its true/
Gods gotta plan for us and a plan for you/
Asking you to be my bride is what I plan to do/
This song's existence is proof of the fact/
I wish I was with you there's truth to that/
I want you in my arms with the cars passing by/
Sitting on a park bench with the sun in the sky/
You giving your heart and me giving mine/
With a single spark of you looking me in the eye/

Nothing is a simple that's a simple fact/
But what goes a long way are the little acts/
The prayers at night when you scared with fright/
And it becomes apparent you are scared to fight/
I will fight for you and hold you close/
Hold you to me tight in the highs and lows/
I suppose this sounds crazy to some that listen/
But your dad will be the one with the decision/
No one talks this way anymore it's all but foreign/
But so are most things that I deem important/
Most men wanna go out and buy a chick magnet/
But I bought a dad car without a single gadget/
I'm just waiting till I look back in the backseat/
And here our children in the back laughing/
Even though happiness is what I'm lacking/
The purpose of life was not about being happy/

(Chorus)

I will love you when you seem unlovable/
I will hug you when you think your unhuggable/
I will die for you cause you live with me/
A life like this is how it's meant to be/
I'll stay up and pray in the dead of night/
For you safety and for your life/
Its my pledge, honor, and goal in life/
That I represent Christ dear future wife/
