Save Face - Ugly Heroes, Verbal Kent

You gotta look into yourself first

Getting caught up in that grudge

Only thinking about that «was» lead to self hurt

Imagine every wrong you did

Following behind forever for as long you live

You can forge for the future, forgive for the futile

Face that refusal, you’ll forget at your funeral

Nobody wanna stay in their mistakes

And none of that shit will matter pushing daisies in your grave

So I’m on that apologetic, sick of living hollow, stressing

Brother you don’t gotta sweat it

Mother chose the liquor over me so didn’t get to know her

Looking at me getting closure, never live with chip on shoulder

Grandfather kicked us out the house so look at what I’m living now

Let me live a different route

Every action is a reaction and reacting by carrying that weight

I don’t need that shit

They learn to love along the way

We all done wrong along the way

Hung around long enough to say

Stay strong enough to say you’re wrong enough to save face

Yo, we all want forgiveness, second chances, even thirds

Words can’t describe, might die from the symptoms

A broken man is listless

Funny things we all have but in the snow miracle, genie’s 3 wishes

Cowards afraid to step from the hour glass

Living this American life without fiber glass

If I reverse roles and want a chance to repent

I’ve made mistakes

If I could rewind the tape I’d never make 'em again

See I’d have flipped sides slide cause everything relative

And anyone judging you is irrelevant

I’ve changed so why can’t people change too?

More than anything, I hold on to the belief

That if they want to they do

Deep down, plants hold on to their root

And I believe the people learn evil it’s not inherent within the soot

So if you strip down the layers and went back to basics

We’d all look at one another with smiles on our faces
