"Progress" lyrics

"Progress"

It's 4 am and I'm still starrin' at the ceiling
37 different thoughts, but only 3 of them appealing
I'm feeling another panic coming on but I ain't sweatin it
It's just another demon in my room and I ain't letting it get to me
Like everything that the people that I trusted ever did to me
Come home with a bad grade oh they really hitting me
Let me get this thought out of my brain before
The little bit of love is gone and only hate remains
It's a shame that you can't even look some people in the eye
Without a little piece and part of you that withers up and die
As I try to give forgiveness and not to obsess
I guess I'm just at work in progress

Maybe it's my pride inside
That keeps me in a one-track mind
Broken promises comin' from both sides
The truth will always hide up in broad daylight
Maybe it's my pride inside
That keeps me in a one-track mind
Broken promises comin' from both sides
The truth will always hide up in broad daylight
Maybe it's my pride

It's 4am and I'm still layin' here alone
Without a text, without a call, but I keep starring at the phone
She ain't home and all I'm thinkin' about is what the hell she's doin'
Who she with, what they sayin', where they at, who she screwing
It starts spewing up inside and that's when shit gonna start to fly
How she gonna do me like this when all I ever do is try
When all I ever do is listen, try my best to pay attention
Puttin' time and all my effort, and did I forget to mention
All the lies that you kept tellin' but I looked the other way
Just to make it all work out and make it last another day
I keep tryin' to give forgiveness and not to obsess
I guess she was a work in progress

Maybe it's my pride inside
That keeps me in a one-track mind
Broken promises comin' from both sides
The truth will always hide up in broad daylight
Maybe it's my pride inside
That keeps me in a one-track mind
Broken promises comin' from both sides
The truth will always hide up in broad daylight
Maybe it's my pride

It's 4am and the bottles all dried up
I pop another pill and all the loose ends are tied up
I'm lied up, I hate it but that's the way it go
I mean shit, I'm only human and it don't hurt if they don't know
And I don't show all of the signs that I'm completely out my mind
They keep askin' and I keep sayin' that I'm truly doin' fine
And I'm truly doin' fine except that I can't keep relationships
Burned a couple bridges and I can't even keep no patience with
Anyone and it's hard to explain
How I put this on so many but I'm the only one to blame
I just hope this show forgiveness and please don't obsess
Because I'm just another work in progress

Maybe it's my pride inside
That keeps me in a one-track mind
Broken promises comin' from both sides
The truth will always hide up in broad daylight
Maybe it's my pride inside
That keeps me in a one-track mind
Broken promises comin' from both sides
The truth will always hide up in broad daylight
Maybe it's my pride
