"Wait Too Long" lyrics
I'm not always right
But I'll never do you wrong
Wish what I give given
But by now you'd think I'd know
Everybody thank me for the life I chose
'Cause the way I make this music
Turn the hate to love
I been hearing what they say though
They may know my name
But don't know where I came from
Everybody sobbing
Hiding where their pain from
Don't see how that robs them
Robs them of their angels
Most of us feel worthless
Out of touch withing ourselves
Music gives the purpose
To the pain I always felt
If you tried to tell me
That one day this how I'd feel
Say you crazy 'til I went and put my ego on the shelf
Life is not a fight
Unless that's what you want
Just know that you pay a price
Either way you go
Life is not supposed to be this easy
I don't really wanna know
If I'm right for this life
Keep my eyes on the prize
Do my best to be real
While they're lying through the mic
I don't know where this' going
But I'm down to pay the price
So much goes through my mind
While I'm riding through the night
And I just keep going
No stopping
No folding
Life passes too fast
It's not slowing
And I don't know what I'd do, if I wait too long
On a journey of self-love
Always I felt stuck
Had to look into myself
Wasn't focused on real stuff
Now I'm free-flowing
Now I can speak up
In tune with the way I feel
Make me wanna just give love
Know a lot of people pray
They're gon' see some better days
When a lot is on your plate
Make you wanna run away
So you pour another drink
Say you'll try another day
Give it time. End up finding your reason
People don't want you to pass
Where they're at right now
They wish you the best
Hope it all crash down
Hard to come to grips when they act so proud
No wonder why the world is full of pain
I say just let 'em in past
They need you way more than you need them and that's a fact
Time reveals the truth
You saw how it removed their mask
You think it would
It never stops the hate
So I just do what feels right and the the smile on my face
Say
If I'm right for this life
Keep my eyes on the prize
Do my best to be real
While they're lying through the mic
I don't know where this' going
But I'm down to pay the price
So much goes through my mind
While I'm riding through the night
And I just keep going
No stopping
No folding
Life passes too fast
It's not slowing
And I don't know what I'd do, if I wait too long
Now the pressure's gone
I was right while they said I was wrong
But I would've never known
If I let them get control
Stopped praying that I don't mess up
'Cause that's bound to happen too
That's where we learn the lessons
So now I don't gotta question
If I'm right for this life
Keep my eyes on the prize
Do my best to be real
While they're lying through the mic
I don't know where this' going
But I'm down to pay the price
So much goes through my mind
While I'm riding through the night
And I just keep going
No stopping
No folding
Life passes too fast
It's not slowing
And I don't know what I'd do, if I wait too long
But I'll never do you wrong
Wish what I give given
But by now you'd think I'd know
Everybody thank me for the life I chose
'Cause the way I make this music

I been hearing what they say though
