Don't know much about practicing what I preach,
|
Don't know how to be envious without jealousy,
|
Don't know how to hold my temper, when I have to get in the last word,
|
Don't know how to speak softly and still be heard,
|
But before I lose everything and everyone who loves me...
|
|
God if you're listening would you have a message sent?
|
Cause I need to be a better lover, brother, and a friend.
|
God if you're listening would you come up with some change?
|
Cause I wake up every morning with a penny to my name.
|
|
Don't know much about love cause I get the same crap from every guy,
|
Don't know how to see the grass being greener on my side,
|
Don't know much about wisdom without being jaded,
|
Don't know how to take criticism without feeling hated,
|
But before I lose everything and everyone who loves me...
|
|
God if you're listening would you have a message sent?
|
Cause I need to be a better lover, brother, and a friend.
|
God if you're listening would you come up with some change?
|
Cause I wake up every morning with a penny to my name.
|
|
Whoa man, I'm everything I said I wouldn't be,
|
Standing here with nothing, will you help me?
|
|
Don't know how to tell a joke without putting my foot in my mouth,
|
Don't know how to be intimate if I don't have a crowd,
|
Don't know how to be hopeful, what if they let me down?
|
I don't know how to keep myself from hurting everyone...
|
|
God if you're listening would you have a message sent?
|
Cause I need to be a better lover, brother, and a friend.
|
God if you're listening would you come up with some change?
|
Cause I wake up every morning with a penny to my name.
|
|
God if you're listening would you have a message sent?
|
Cause I need to be a better lover, brother, and a friend.
|
God if you're listening would you come up with some change?
|
Cause I wake up every morning with a penny to my name.
|
|
Oh, God, I don't know much about nothing.
|
No, so give me a break.
|
Anyway, won't anybody listen to me?
|
Oh, oh.
