Version 1 of the lyrics

  When I think about the turn my life has taken  When I think about the turn my life has taken
1  I know it's because of you that I receive so many blessings   I know it's because of you, that I receive so many blessings 1
2  I had a home but no privacy                                                 I had a home but no privacy, I didn't know a thing about my legacy 2
3        I didn't know a thing about my legacy                                           When I realized you were there for me, I called on your name and you came 3
4  When I realized you were there                   for me                             And              you did, just what you said, for that I'll love you forever 4
5  I called on your name and                             you came   You kept,     your word to me, for that I'll love you forever 5
      
6  You did just what you said for that I'll love you forever   [Chorus]                                                                  6
7  You kept your word to me for that I'll love you forever   A promise, is a promise in my eyes                           7

2  A promise is a promise in my eyes   2
  Can't say you're gonna just to compromise  Can't say you're gonna just to compromise
  The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined  The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
  A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way  A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way
      
8  I think of when there was a young boy not even two years old   I think of when there was a young boy, not even two years old 8
9  Blessed with a mother who loved him so        Blessed with a mother who loved him so, she 9
10  She abandoned her dreams to nourish his own        abandoned her dreams to nourish his own 10
11  It wasn't easy for the two of them             It wasn't easy for the two of them, but she 11
12  But she knew she had to give him a chance             knew she had to give him a chance 12
  At a better life, it was only right, so she worked and she prayed  At a better life, it was only right, so she worked and she prayed
1  And she did, just what she say, for that he'll love her forever1
2  She kept her word to him, for that he'll love her forever2
      
13  And she did just what she said for that he'll love her forever   [Chorus]                                                                        13
14  She kept her word to him for that he'll love her forever   A promise is a promise, in my eyes                            14

  A man's only as good as his word  A man's only as good as his word
