- B.Reith My Story 歌詞
- B.Reith
- My story is a simple one to tell
Popped out my mommas tummy 26th of January winter up in Milwaukee
Twenty minutes later peein on the doctors shirt
Pops makin jokes sayin 'Look doc it works!'
So the tell me anyways, I cant remember anything before pre-K
Its all blurred together and each day my memory fades like worn leather
But what I can recall is sweeter than warm weather with a cool breeze
Saturdays were heaven, wake up watch cartoons from 7 straight to 11
Then its outside to play whatever sport was in season
My cousins they were older so that made me the weak one
But it didnt stop me , all we did was play we made up our own games
Rolled up socks and faked like
they were hand grenades makin forts out of couches
Mom would come home mad at how messed up the house was
I stayed out of trouble most of the time
But when I got out of line Pops would smack my behind
The wonder years are over now somehow Im fully grown
Still I fully know I didnt make it this far on my own
[01:02.80]
[01:03.15]There is no way to count all of the mistakes I have made
[01:07.79]And I wouldnt be here today if it wasnt for Your grace
[01:12.93]And youre still here with me, You never gave up after all this time
[01:18.44]And I owe it all to You, Youre the one that got me through
[01:23.14]You wrote my story
Looking back on high school I see how foolish that I really was
I thought I was the coolest dude there ever was
Til Iwent off to college and learned nobody there even knew who I was
It all taught me that I fall short
Like junior year when they cut me even though I left it all on the court
I had to learn how to fail and to fall
So I could learn how to get up shake the dust off walk and stand tall
Learn how to call on the one whos been there through it all
I remember when I got the phone call
Freshman year in Virginia, my grandfather passed away
Eight years after my grandmother guess he couldnt wait
To see her on the other side at the funeral I cried
So hard I never knew Id hurt that bad inside
But over time wounds heal and all thats remembered
Is the love that we shared while together forever
This is my story and I wouldnt change a thing
I was put here for a purpose this was written by a King
Was carefully designed, hand-crafted and made
By the One whos never made a mistake
I want to give all it takes from here on out to make up for lost time
But whats done is done and I cant press rewind
And all of my regrets are chasin me from behind
But the futures unwritten Im racin towards the finish line
So from here on out everyday counts
I know Your grace meets me no matter what the amount
Despite that Im hard-hearted, You gave me a clean slate
And promised that Youd finish what youve started
And even though a four minute long song can barely scratch the surface
Its sure enough to show Im far from perfect
So thankYou for the past, help me live in the present
To prepare me for the future til my story ends
