Better Late than forever lyrics
"Ego to Feed"
I can see it I can touch it I can taste it and when I come face to face.
I’ve given up on trying to change the things I can’t.
Pursuing everything that makes me who I am.
I may come off as selfish or unappealing to you.
For that I am sorry, but I’m not sorry for…
Chasing a dream, A vision in my head.
Not willing to live my life with any more regret.
There’s only one option for me,
It’s to give all I got and hope I succeed.
Failure may happen, but I got an Ego to Feed.
As the old saying goes,
If you want something done right, do it yourself.
Got tired of waiting around for everybody’s help.
I mean no disrespect to those I left behind,
But now its time to get what’s mine.
I’m chasing a dream, A vision in my head.
Not willing to live my life with any more regret.
There’s only one option for me.
It’s to give all I got and hope I succeed.
Failure may happen, but I got an Ego to Feed.
I’m chasing a dream, A vision in my head.
Not willing to live my life with any more regret.
No one will fight for you listen to what I just said
From this point forward, I’m pushing on,
Until I’m dead.
“In the Shade”
Wipe your feet,
But not on me.
Seems your boots are clean,
While I got dirt up to my knees.
It’s about me,
That’s what you’ll say.
While my intent was us,
Succeeding every day.
No time for games,
I got no time to play,
I threw my cards upon the table,
And I walked away.
That’s the way it is,
That’s the way it goes.
I am done explaining because nobody knows.
I’ve planted the seeds.
Now you can watch them grow.
Steady is how I move, but never slow.
Now I speak with clarity.
It don’t matter to me.
I could not care less just how I’m perceived.
I’ve lost many friends, they have come and gone.
I find solace in the future, in pencil it is drawn.
Because I’m free. It only took 30 years to see
that I’m living in the shade
Of my planted seeds.
That’s the way it is,
That’s the way it goes.
I am done explaining because nobody knows.
I’ve planted the seeds.
Now you can watch them grow.
Steady is how I move, but never slow.
“Currents”
Our eyes locked under the summer sun.
I’m trying to figure out where all the heat is emanating from.
She bats her eyelashes yes her game has begun.
In a calculated strike I’m sure has worked before.
Desperate for attention but from me it wont last.
She’s shaking everything she owns but lady not so fast.
You’re not the first and you wont be the last.
You should stop writing checks that I can’t cash.
Because I’m not alone.
Because I’m not alone.
Oh, I feel your current pulling me down.
Oh, I wont ever let myself drown.
Because I’m not alone.
Because I’m not alone.
I feel your current pulling me down.
I wont ever let myself drown.
“Daydreams”
These thoughts aren’t allowed
As I pull my head down from the clouds.
Unconditional Love,
Waits for you, right here
In my arms.
Where you’re meant to be.
In my arms, that’s where you are.
In my daydreams.
I don’t believe in miracles,
At least not yet.
I wont believe, until I can hold you close
In my arms.
Where you’re meant to be.
In my arms, that’s where you are.
In my daydreams.
I hope the day will come,
I need to know how many more rising suns.
I will stare and wait.
Watch while the moon takes its place.
On the stars I’ll wish to see your face.
In my arms.
Where you’re meant to be.
In my arms, that’s where you are.
In my daydreams.
“Worth It”
Remember back when we started?
Greenhorns definitely and off we departed.
With a twinkle in our eye big hearted its time
to get all that you wanted.
Change your view,
Edit your perspective,
Change your view,
forget what you expected.
It’s not about where you’re going,
It’s where you’ve been.
Learn from all the lessons life will put you in.
Sometimes you gotta take one square on the chin,
But trust me, it’s worth it when you win.
How much pain will we endure?
When we’re pushing our brain for a future that is so unsure.
Until we’re leaning on a cane and praying that there’s still more.
Well there’s still more.
Change your view,
Edit your perspective,
Change your view,
forget what you expected.
It’s not about where you’re going,
It’s where you’ve been.
Learn from all the lessons life will put you in.
Sometimes you gotta take one square on the chin,
But trust me, it’s worth it when you win.
It’s not about where you’re going,
It’s where you’ve been.
Learn from all the lessons life will put you in.
Sometimes you gotta take one square on the chin,
But trust me, it’s worth it when you win.
"Keep Moving"
Waking up this morning I knew my life would change, infinitely.
The sun pokes its head, eyes are heavy and my brains a fog.
I'm making sure you're fed and comfortable all night long.
I step into my dress shoes.
Oh how I'm going to miss you.
Leaving you is heartbreaking lately baby.
Coming home and seeing your face is breath taking again.
I have to keep on moving, shaking.
So I can keep on making a life you deserve.
The irony is to give you the best life, I have to miss so much of yours.
Leaving you is heartbreaking lately baby.
Coming home and seeing your face is breath taking again.
I have to keep on moving, shaking.
So I can keep on making a life you deserve.
If I could teach you one thing, It's that life is too short.
Leaving you will be heartbreaking baby.
One day I won't be coming home again.
Promise you'll keep on moving, shaking.
So you can keep on making a life,
your family deserves.
Leaving you is heartbreaking lately baby.
Coming home and seeing your face is breath taking again.
I have to keep on moving, shaking.
So I can keep on making a life you deserve.
“Spirits (Maggie)”
She hangs at the corner of the bar.
Overlooking everyone but not from far.
Long blonde hair and a cold blank stare.
She’s so quiet you don’t even realize she’s there.
Her name on the marquee is just an honorable mention.
What she really craves is some human attention.
When she starts to feel real brave she will call your name and say.
I’m just here for the beer.
Why are everybody’s faces always filled with fear?
I drink here all the time, I’m not committing any crime.
I need some spirits, so I can lift mine.
Bridget and C-Rod are mixing drinks behind the bar.
SHOTS!
Maggie knows who’s best that’s why she doesn’t stray too far.
Disposition trending negatively.
She feels misunderstood so she drinks her problems away.
Her intentions they are pure.
When she taps you on the shoulder, the only thing she’s trying to say is,
I’m just here for the beer.
Why are everybody’s faces always filled with fear?
I drink here all the time, I’m not committing any crime.
I need some spirits so I can lift mine.
“Hot Dogs”
Now it’s time to pregame with some vodka and red bull
Gimme gimme more until I’m comfortable.
Now we’re sitting at dinner with a bunch of my buds.
The waitress comes over while I scream fill my cup!
Fill me up Fill me up Fill me up!
Now the night is getting fuzzy and I’m losing my memory,
I don’t remember dancing and acting all crazy, but maybe,
It was time for me to leave,
It was time for me to leave,
It was time for me to leave.
So I start my journey down the road
Only got 15 more blocks to go, I hope.
Then suddenly my tummy starts yelling at me.
Hey you up there I think I’m empty.
Fill me up Fill me up Fill me up!
Out of no where right before my eyes,
A green and red savior lights up the summer sky, I knew,
It was time for me to leave,
It was time for me to leave,
It was time for me to leave.
Once I cross the street then I’ll be home
but the cars are buzzing by me on this six lane road oh no.
So I make a mad dash and I run real fast,
I’m hoping and I’m praying this meal is not my last.
I made it to the beach,
I got my two hot dogs and my beverage,
All within my reach.
I lean back to look up at the night sky and what do I see?
It’s my wife
and all of my friends
and they’re super pissed at me.
Why would you leave?
I can’t believe you’d leave.
I will atone while I watch the stars, all alone.
“Snapback”
I forget some names, I forget some dates.
Sometimes I forget that you’re so great.
When I snapback to reality, reality there’s one more thing I need to say.
I realize just how lucky I am that you wait for me to return to you.
You wait for the real thing that’s cast aside.
You hold the key to the real me, who’s locked inside.
When I snapback to reality, reality there’s one more thing I need to say.
I realize just how lucky I am that you wait for me to return to you.
You let me leave to chase my dreams,
You let me go find what I see in my sleep.
When I return, I get the joy of rediscovering you.
When I snapback to reality, reality there’s one more thing I need to say.
I realize just how lucky I am that you wait for me to return to you.
“159”
I didn’t think this day was possible.
I didn’t think this day would come.
Now reality is sinking in.
How can I feel this happy when I’m so numb?
Counting down the clock until you’re here with me.
Love and give with all your heart and you will see.
Maybe one day you’ll grow up to be just like me,
And want to give everything for your family.
Now we’re bringing life
Its time to reach inside and find the man I need to be.
So bring on the sleepless nights.
I resign from my former life so I,
Can be the man I need to be.
The first time that I heard your heart,
Stopped in its tracks I felt my heart stop.
We’ve been waiting on a miracle,
And that’s just what we got.
Now we’re bringing life
Its time to reach inside and find the man I need to be.
So bring on the sleepless nights.
I resign from my former life so I,
Can be the dad I need to be.
I’ll give you everything you need.
I’ll give you anything you need.
Cuz you’re everything to me.

We are expired.
We hemorrhaged for a while.
Where we start,
Is not where we are.
“Harley’s Edge III – F.I.P.”
I’ve made many mistakes but I never lied.
I was true to myself, that’s all I could be.
All that I hope is that you will just see that..
I tried, I tried, I tried.
We both, made some mistakes but you,
You can’t deny, that we shouldn’t do and throw this away.
I learned real quick I no longer have a say.
I tried, I tried, I tried.
Now I will walk down this path without you by my side.
An apology that fell upon deaf ears,
Sad its all over after all of these years but I tried.
I tried, I tried, I tried.
I can see it, I can touch it, I can taste it, and when I come face to face I ain’t gonna waste it.
I can see it I can touch it I can taste it and when I come face to face.
