"Grandpa" lyrics

"Grandpa"

My grandpa died
In his chair
Watching Fox News on TV
I won't lie
I resent him
For the things that he believed
I have tried
To forgive him
But that power evades me
Am I a hypocrite
If I hate you
Because you hate someone else?
If hate's a sin
Does that mean
That we'll both end up in hell
I have lied
I have stole
Have I only hurt myself

I don't think I'm any better than
Any other man
Who made a life with his own two hands
I try to tell truth instead of lies
Not to judge instead to understand
The fear that's held inside

One day I'll die
And I'll leave
My reputation behind
The life I lead
What I write
Am I mean or am I kind?
I try to be
A good example
For somebody down the line

I don't think I'm any better than
Any other man
Who made a life with his own two hands
I try to tell truth instead of lies
Not to judge instead to understand
The fear that's held inside
