A Bitter Pill to Swallow
You (expletive) and moan about the hand you’re dealt
Say you’re cutting off all the things you’ve ever felt
You fail to realize the hand that dealt was your own
So get your head out that zone, because your cover is blown
No more reasons or excuses not to start a new milestone
Because the hardest thing to do sometimes is accept our own fault
I’m only saying this because I’ve been there before
And I know it’s hard to swallow
All the pills inside that bottle
Just so you can sit and wallow
Living for today and never thinking about tomorrow
But you’re my brother and the things you do bring me sorrow
So here all my life lessons for you to borrow

After giving someone love, the next best gift is the truth. I admire the truth of this. Very well done!
