Verse 1 Didn't I make you proud, go and lay my life down, when you called my name. I thought I stood for something, was doin' the right thing when I went away. Now being back should be so simple, but I keep getting these mixed signals from everyone. Why do folks sit and judge me, who ain't seen what I seen or did what I done. Didn't I burn, didn't I bleed, enough for you. I faced, your fears, felt pain so you won't have to. Yeah didn't I do my best, It wasn't home here when I left. Verse I've seen boys fall to pieces, grown men cry out for Jesus, till their black and blue. I thought God was on our side, weren't we supposed to be the good guys that would never lose. Cause I don't see no ticker tape or five mile parade saying, thank you son. Just folks that sit and judge me, who ain't seen what I seen or did what I done. Chorus Didn't I burn, didn't I bleed, enough for you. I faced, your fears, felt pain so you won't have to. Yeah didn't I do my best, It wasn't home here when I left.
