just different

if my prayers don't mean nothing

if my tears don't mean nothing

then my life don't mean nothing

cast me out into the outer darkness

I haven't seen the light in so long

I wouldn't know it if I saw it

shinning my way

I have nothing left to pay

I pray everyday in some kind of way

still so much stands in my way

I have to have a pass to get to another day

I lose from not trying to win

I didn't know I was in a competition

I didn't find out until I got to the finish line

that I should have been running the whole time

I made too many stops on the way

revisiting my past and trying to stay

pulled in and trying to break away

it's pass time to get serious

let the children play today

get up off the couch

leave your toys at your mamas house

if you don't know what I’m talking

about keep it to yourself and shut

your mouth you're letting

too many flies in the house
