Everything I Am
Everything I am
Everything I was
Keeps getting better
And better just because
I'm evolving
Not about pushing delete
Rinse, wash, and repeat
That would only bring defeat
Time passes by
Lessons learned
Only a matter of time
Before dilemmas form a rhyme
Humans can't be perfected
Mistakes can only be prevented
No need to regret
Don't light another cigarette
Don't want to hit a punk?
Don't get behind a wheel drunk
Before you think of what you want
Remember dirt belongs to the Earth
Not every inch can be bought
We're all here for the same thing
Really sucks when dollar bills change reality
But we let it
That's our fault
Somehow learned to put principles and values in a vault
For the sake of dough
We're not talking Better Crocker though
I'll keep thing going when I have more flowing
