Learn My Lesson

I'm still siphoning gas

My tank on heat from all the life that it passed

I'm overthinking every word that I write in my past

I lose faith in every verse, but my Bible intact

And these bright ideas ain't lighting my path

I find myself jealous and bitter

I try to focus on work, but nothing helps

Doesn't matter what I do

I compare it to someone else

Try to relate

Then I think about the time that I waste

Maybe I'm too far gone thinking I'm going to be saved

I still wrote a couple rhymes on the way, but I'm on a dead end road

And I'm driven to the point of no return

I love this life, I'm covered in dirt

A broken mirror, hide my reflection

Living life in no direction

I'm cold, my heart covered by all my sins

Don't know when this road ends

It's an ever-ending journey trying to find perfection

And one day I'm going to learn my lesson

I can't forgive myself

I don't know how

There's sparking roads in my past

That I ain't gonna go down

Lord, I know you've been keeping that light burning

I pray you've been the one guiding my steps throughout this life's journey

I ain't been the best

And sometimes I'm disgusted at who's inside this flesh

Consumption of self-destruction just brings back this emptiness

It's there in every silent moment

Every still and calm and every glimpse of inner peace

And the feeling's gone

An unaccepting mind hides inside this flaw of desire

I'm on a dead end road

And I'm driven to the point of no return

I love this life, I'm covered in dirt

A broken mirror, hide my reflection

Living life in no direction

I'm cold, my heart covered by all my sins

Don't know when this road ends

It's a never ending journey trying to find perfection

And one day I'ma learn my lesson

I'm cold, my heart covered by all my sins

I can't tell when this road ends

It's a never ending journey trying to find perfection

I'm on a dead end road

And I'm driven to the point of no return

I love this life, I'm covered in dirt

A broken mirror, hide my reflection

Living life in no direction

I'm cold, my heart covered by all my sins

Don't know when this road ends

It's a never ending journey trying to find perfection

And one day I'ma learn my lesson
