Joey Degraw - Exhortation Lyrics

I've been struggling through my brokenness
Don't wanna have this conversation
Your optimistic ways really get me down
Everything's not okay, So stop trying to act that way
I'm just speaking the truth you know
A realistic blow by blow
One day, you will
Beat our your pain
Or you will see
Nothing will change
Your momma's intentions are good
But they are hurting you

Your only answers are excuses
I want no part of the games you play
The almost actress gone up in smoke and
You don't need to make yourself dumber anyway
This city is too big for you
I'm far too young and simple too
One day, you will
Beat our your pain
Or you will see
Nothing will change
Your momma's intentions are good
But they are hurting you

I told you not to test my patience
Don't ask if you don't want to hear
All the good advice I gave you
Went to your head and then right out your open ears
I'm just speaking the truth you know
A realistic blow by blow
One day you will
Beat our your pain
Or you will see
Nothing will change
Your momma's intentions are good
One day you will
Beat our your pain
Or you will see
Nothing will change
Your momma's intentions are good
But they are hurting you
