Art of Losing

do you ever get that kind of feeling

where you’re constantly losing

at this fight you’re trying to win

 

just take a step back and look

at this big picture

you’re not gonna win

 

it’s more deeper than what you’d think

the way the world works

you’re the underdog and already you can’t win

 

fight and you’d probably lose

stand up for what you really want

but in the end, you simply won’t win

 

yeah it’s strange how you see life play out

when you’re on your way out

god will not grant you the win

 

yeah, it’s beautiful

the way we all lose

it’s the art of losing…..

 

where’s the win

when there’s only one victor

think about how many ways you can lose

 

pride in what you want to do

face the defeat with your best face

and accept the song of blues

 

standing at the bar

fightin’ w/ the bartender

trying to get more *****

 

the con you pulled

just a little act

all for a ruse

 

trying to get that love

you truly wanted

but no you had to blow your fuse

 

yeah, it’s beautiful

the way we all lose

it’s the art of losing…..
