In this honest reflection on authenticity and loyalty, Brantley Gilbert explores the polarizing nature of being true to oneself. The song acknowledges that genuine people often divide opinions - they're either strongly liked or disliked, with little middle ground. Gilbert embraces this reality, highlighting how those who truly know him remain fiercely loyal 🤝, while others may judge him without understanding his character. He takes pride in being dependable for his inner circle while accepting that his straightforward, unapologetic approach to life won't appeal to everyone. The lyrics emphasize the value of authentic relationships over widespread popularity, suggesting that earning the deep trust and love of a few meaningful connections matters more than being universally liked. #CountryValues #RealFriendship
The Ones That Like Me
Lyrics
Oh yeah
Ain't gonna lie, I can count on both hands
My down to ride 'til the day I die friends
To get them, I'd like to think
That I'm few and far between
Guys like me, you want in an alley with ya
Up a creek, ain't a doubt I'm gonna paddle with ya
Go to bat, go to church, go to battle with ya
They can say what they want about me, but
The ones that need me got me
The ones that doubt me can't stop me
Even the ones that said forget him
You can bet they ain't forgot me
Either wanna hit me or hold me
Those that hate me don't know me
And the ones that don't trust anybody trust me
Yeah, the ones that like me love me
Speak my mind, don't mind who's listenin'
I'll ask forgiveness, 'fore I ask permission
Least with me you know what you're gettin'
You may not get a thing about me, but
The ones that need me got me
The ones that doubt me can't stop me
Even the ones that said forget him
You can bet they ain't forgot me
Either wanna hit me or hold me
Those that hate me don't know me
And the ones that don't trust anybody trust me
Yeah, the ones that like me love me
Yeah, they love me
And I ain't perfect, I'm a simple man
I got a sinner's mind, but I can fold my hands
I ain't afraid to pray and I do know who I am, yeah
And the ones that need me got me
Ones that doubt me can't stop me
Even the ones that said forget him
Bet your ass they ain't forgot me
Either wanna hit me or hold me
Those that hate me don't know me
And the ones that don't trust anybody trust me
Yeah, the ones that like me love me
The ones that like me love me
And if you don't
Probably a pretty good chance I don't like you either
