Quick Tempered

I tried going a whole day without taking your name in vain

Cause someone told me it means so much more than some quick tempered phrase

Do I even want to know my worst offense?

Only discoverable looking through your lens

A quick tempered man does a foolish thing

But what do you say about the man that sings about his past like he won't go back?

It feels like a lawyer's dodge to make my case against the judge

And get away with everything I've done and end up above

Will you give me the strength to fight myself every step of the way?

Will you show to me the length of my evil days?

I used to wanna ride on eagle wings

I used to wanna feel that peaceful breeze

It all feels like you're holding me underneath

Dear dad, sorry for making the family look so bad

My wicked ways are set

They gained control of the innocence I had left

Just write me off as your black sheep

I get too much in my own head

But I am longing for the solace I never had
