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!
