The world tells us that life's too short to hold a grudge But that was written by the people Who expect to infect the pieces of another person's memory Just because you said you didn't mean to be selfish Don't mean you're not selfish let me give it to you straight It'll never be as a simple as your story, reputation Or the days pa**ing on Ain't it the same as it always was? He can just get out there and say "I've changed" Politicking and pretending that nothing happened, Well it didn't to them But if they can forget than I'll never forgive Some things don't get to be forgave Some forgiveness is a lie. We are raised to believe that words have no meaning So it makes sense we use them to say when we're wrong
And yeah I get mad, it's all I got to get by 'Cause history it ain't two sides If they can read from a card why can't I read from a card, It's my empty word against yours And yeah I get mad, it's all I got to get along 'Cause his story is usually wrong Ain't it the same as it always was? He can just get out there and say "I've changed" Politicking and pretending that nothing happened, Well it didn't to him But if he can forget than I'll never forgive Some things things don't get to be forgave Some forgiveness is a lie Yeah life changed us And there's nothing we can do about it But own our past And not let it own us
