Maybe your daddy never held you like he should
Maybe your mama just held on the best she could
Every soul has a secret
Ya give it away or keep it
But yesterday's gone so tell me why
You carry the weight
The weight of the world
It's breakin' you down
On your back like a boulder
Before it's too late
Get rid of it girl
Get it off of your shoulder
I know you've been used
But you gotta lose the weight of the world
Maybe I haven't always been there just for you
Maybe I try but then I got my own life too
Every heart has a hunger
I'm not gettin' any younger
And I got all the crosses I can bear
Don't gimme the weight
The weight of the world
It's breakin' me down
On my back like a boulder
Before it's too late
Get rid of it girl
Get it off of my shoulder
You know I've been used
And I gotta lose the weight of the world
It all comes down to who you crucify
You either kiss the future or the past goodbye
We could fly so high
But we carry the weight
The weight of the world
It's breakin' us down
On our backs like a boulder
Before it's too late
Get rid of it girl
Get it off of our shoulders
We've all been used
And we gotta lose the weight of the world
It's takin' us down
And the night's growin' colder
Just blame it on fate
That was yesterday girl
And we're just growin' older
We've all been abused
Now it's time to lose the weight of the world
