Song Lyrics

I know I'm not a saint 
I don't pretend to be one either 
I've done wrong in my life 
if I could change some things I would 
but nonetheless 
things happen for a reason 
so I let bygones be bygones 
and love the ones who care 
and pity the ones who don't 
I've been wronged by a lot of people 
but I brush off the hurt 
and sorrow I feel 
I've wronged a lot of people 
asked God for his forgiveness
 life's not always fair 
neither are the burdens I bear 
I have the passion and desire 
to see my life through 
to make better choices
I know I'm not a saint
I don't pretend to be one either
