Green Monroe - Sometimes I Get It Lyrics

I'm so afraid to fall behind
As life streaks by and I see the kinds
Of progress that you're making
It's just baby steps i'm taking
You've built a brand new factory
I've let it go i'll never be
The one to ring the starting bell
Or sends the bad guys back to hell
But you see me so differently
For some reason you still believe
That great things still can happen to us
We can still make anything happen for us
Starters gun shot off way back when
Got your own race to run
It makes no difference to you
But it's everything to me

Most times i don't try at all
Sometimes i try way too hard
And most times I get it wrong
Sometimes i get it right

I'm the main thing stopping me from getting ahead
Instead of picking fruit i'm kicking with my bad habits
And it's true, every single word that you've said
Becoming self-made is just a switch in my head
Might go to nashville, travel out west
Or just stay here and start 15 bands
And organize entire communities
All passionate and focused on just a few things
Or relive out my entire life again
Everything i loved and all the suffering
Just looking for a tree with some shade
Instead of looking back i'm going to live for today

Hey, look at this
I found something in my pocket
And hey, look at that
Can't believe she stayed
And hey look at these
I'm so eager to please

Cause sometimes, i get it
Sometimes, I get it
Sometimes, I get it right
