Well ive been down and ive been out
And ive been a couple places I don’t like to talk about
Yea im mostly sober but sometimes im not
It don’t bother me what you think
I learned not to care a lot
ive lied to cheaters and ive cheated lovers
but I hold the ones that I love close
my best friends are like my brothers
I want to love you want you to love me too
But I’d have to destroy this distance yea
And that’s a **** hard thing to do
I saw the devil dressed up on tv
Askin me to send him money
like he gave a **** for me
then I saw jesus down on the street
gave a starving man everything he had
and he walked off with bare feet
ive cursed in churches
and ive prayed in bars
seen my share of real bad things
and ive earned a couple scars
ive made some mistakes
you know you have too
but you live and learn
or crash and burn
don’t think it wont happen to you
