- Let me tell you something you already know
The world ain't all sunshines and rainbows
It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are
It'll beat you to your knees and keep it there permanently if you let it
You Me and Nobody is gonna hit as hard as life
But it ain't about how hard you hit
It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward
How much you can take and keep moving forward
That's how winning is done
Now if you know what you worth
Go out and get what you worth
But you gotta be willing to take the hits
And not pointing fingers saying you ain't what you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody
Cowards do that and that ain't you
You're better than that
James Vincent McMorrow - We Don't Eat
So I'd rather be working for something than praying for the rain
So I wander on till someone else is saved
I moved to the coast under a mountain
Swam in the ocean Slept on my own
At dawn I would watch the sun cut ribbons through the bay
I'd remember all the things my mother wrote
That we don't eat until your father's at the table
And we don't drink until the devils turned to dust
And never once has any man I've met been able to love
So if I were you I'd have a little trust
Two thousand years I've been in that water
Two thousand years sunk like a stone
Desperately reaching for nets that the fishermen have thrown
I'm trying to find a little bit of hope
Me I was holding all of my secrets soft and hid
Pages were folded then there was nothing at all
So if in the future I might need myself a savior
I'll remember what was written on that wall
That we don't eat until your father's at the table
And we don't drink until the devils turned to dust
And never once has any man I've met been able to love
So if I were you I'd have a little trust
Am I an honest man and true?
Have I been good to you at all?
Oh I'm so tired of playing these games
We'd just be running down
The same old lines The same old stories
Of breathless trains and worn down glories
Houses burning Worlds that turn on their own
So we don't eat until your father's at the table
We don't drink until the devils turned to dust
And never once has any man I 've met been able to love
So if I were you, my friend, learn to have just a little bit of trust
