VERSE 1
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
CHORUS
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
VERSE 2
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
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Whoa man I'm everything I said I wouldn't be
Standing here with nothing will you help me
VERSE 3
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
CHORUS x2
