Story behind the song
Just some real talk kinda stuff....found this old guitar line alec recorded on my comp and found the perfect lyrics
Lyrics
I was born of a man, but his flaws surpass
…Atlast my father plays no roll inside the law that I lack
Where I walk I walk alone, just to get through the day
…And always down to help another when it gets in my way
Yeah…I know its not my fault, but im thinking its me
…And ridiculed by the world for the things I believe
My strength comes from my god, and my hunger bands the phoniness
…I’ll never say I am jesus, but I understand his loneliness
…it’s like my duty to be just another body for Christ
to resist all evil, that’s one hell of a hike
…but from a kid to a man, fam I know what its like
this is my life
Think about it let me carry your mind
…Across emotions that are held between the trying-est times
Digging deep for some humanity with benefits slow tho
…I’ll stand for something right even if it is solo
think about the ones that hate, and stay a laugh in my lunges
…because there’s nothing you can do to me that hasn’t been done
I know that half of you are thinking that im corny or cracked
…or maybe more than corny, crap and that im boring and wack
but fuck it, you either don’t know or never were helped
…and in this life you gotta be about more than yourself
People pray a second coming, just to damage his son
…but don’t you worry jesus, see this, yeah I’ll handle this one
I fear no end, death is part of the play
…that makes the way I live and lay a little harder to taste
Im really holding onto hope, just to jet to the grave
…some people need a little kindness just to get through the day
and I would never be the last to admit I was gassed
…and yeah ive hurt a lot of people, that’s the list of my past
let me read a couple chapters from the book that I brought
…fuck impressing all you faggets, hope im good with my god
it’s baggage out the ass with every note that I ate
…I carry weight around my bones because I know that im fake
Searching for the meaning, any hope that I’m sinking
…and being fatter keeps me honest cuz I know what im thinking
I smoke alotta green and the cursing is steady
…I’m not braggin not laughing cuz this burden is heavy
its no big thing thinking ima end with applause
…when in awe, I only hope I’m never empty at all
Now I know how jesus felt, when he weathered events
…No matter how much good you do the evil never relents
No matter how many times you will act in the right
…This life’ll come back and bite you with the passion of Christ
I try to walk a path that you follow in step
…And I may live a life of sorrow but I never regret
you say I preach alotta things, nope I hand you the light
…cuz as a person I appreciate a stand for the right
