Hello world
Ain’t no friend of ya
So quit with all the smiles I wont bend for ya
I’m walkin’ straight better now than ever
I guess I started late now my heart’s awake
When did this all begin I guess it’s hard to say
All I really know is that something happened inside of me
And it was not my own I was chosen
Now I’m flippin’ paper for the prophets
I ain’t talking about how my pockets grown
Not the paper with the dead people faces
Talking about them dudes that I read in the pages
Now I’m seeing clear but I ain’t got Lasik
I’m thinking about my past I never shoulda made it
But God in His grace saw it fit to come and snatch me up
I draw the line in the sand no I ain’t backing up
Back in the days I was acting up
You know when communion came your boy had to pass the cup
Pass the bread too sin I was still in
Offering went in the plate my condoms almost fell in
Outside I’m feelin’ cool inside I’m yelling
Outside lookin’ free inside’s like a felon
Doing time for rebelling a slave to that sin that I was dwellin’ in
Bought the lie they were selling like go, get as many girls as you can
And get it out of your system now so you’ll put a rrrrring on that hand
Down the line when your thirty after you had like thirty different women
They so pretty feeling clean … getting dirty
Yuck, now what a lie from the mouth of Satan
Let’s use logic for verifying these statements
Well you keep chasing them you’ll only want more
Sin is never satisfied boy we at war with ourselves
You ever want something so bad it was all you could think about
Yo you had to have it
Then you finally get it you like it for a minute but then your eyes pivot
Now your on to something different we got God-sized longings
Why you try to fill em with them things that you can’t take with you in the coffin
Billy made a promise but didn’t end though
Carrie had a dream but she threw it out the window
Kevin met a nice girl who broke his heart and
His friends never told him but they knew it from the start and…
These are the things we go through
Let’s take control and be ourselves
Let’s not waste time wondering about
How we’re gonna make it out
He’s the guy that you should feel sorry for
He had the world but he thought that he wanted more
I owe it all to the mistake he made back then
I owe it all to my girl’s ex-boyfriend

And I will be your hope when you feel like its over.
And I will pick you up when your whole world shatters.
And when you’re finally in my arms,
You’ll look up and see love has a face.
I am with you.
I will carry you through it all.
I won’t leave you; I will catch you,
When you feel like letting go.
Cause you’re not, you’re not alone.
So goodnight moon and goodnight you
When you’re all that I think about
All that I dream about
How’d I ever breathe without
A goodnight kiss from goodnight you
The kind of hope they all talk about
The kind of feeling we sing about
Sit in our bedroom and read aloud
Like a passage from goodnight moon
Oh goodnight moon
And there you were
I saw my Juliet come graceful down the stairs
It’s hard to miss the way her eyes light up the room and steal the air

THIS IS THE LAST ONE!!! I PROMISE!!!
And it holds to me a lot right now because of my girlfriend (: I can vouch for and sing every word in this song. He doesn’t know what he’s missing.

very real song. talks about having a decent and clean relationship… something hardly anybody seems to be capable of these days.
