Let Me Slide

Fan humming in the dark

Ashtray full of half-true nights

Your text lighting up my lap

Her ring on my left hand tight

You say"Baby

Make a choice"

I fake sleep

Turn on my side

Your scent on my hoodie

Her name in my mind

I've been juggling these blessings like they mine

Telling one truth

At a time

Praying grace still covers all these lies

I got a main girl

And a wife on the side

Heart split in the middle

Ain't proud of this life

When I get to them pearlies

I hope You let me slide

I hope You let me slide

(oh, let me slide)

Dinner with the wife at eight

FaceTime you from the valet line

Say I'm working late again

You laugh

Say"Boy

You love that grind"

Her lipstick on my coffee mug

Your gloss on the passenger seat

Two birthdays on one weekend

Two stories I can't keep

I've been treating all this mercy like it's mine

Dodging hard talks

Hiding time

Begging for a heaven I don't matching-line

I got a main girl

And a wife on the side

Heart split in the middle

Ain't proud of this life

When I get to them pearlies

I hope You let me slide

I hope You let me slide

(don't turn me away)

If they ever sit together

Hear my name at the same time

Would they hold each other's hands

While I finally tell the why

Will You see a tired child

Or just a cheating man

Will You reach out through the fire

Or let me burn where I stand

I got a main girl

And a wife on the side

Heart split in the middle

I'm done with the disguise

When I get to them pearlies

I hope You let me slide

I hope You let me slide

(oh, let me slide)

I hope You let me slide
