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
