lyrics

they say a picture's worth a thousand words
my life's worth a thousand days
if you find that perfect girl show her love a thousand ways
I've told you a thousand times that I am merely a man
You're never ready for the real world even with a thousand days to plan
man and so now I'm praying for my enemies
Who pack a thousand bullets may they shoot but never enter me
Enter me via all the words that I have written down
my ex is still texting me I swear she's still tripping out
I swear I've walked a thousand miles
met a thousand people too
none of them compare and most definitely can't equal to
You
You've put a thousand smiles on my face
and you've never held me back
you know I got dreams to chase
I got a thousand places
that I need to be
I got a thousand text messages I need to read
I got a thousand sunsets that I've yet to see
I'm a sinner a thousand deaths were meant for me

but I've been told a thousand lies
I'd be a failure if it wasnt for that thousandth try
And for every time i've made you smile
There's a trail of my mistakes spanning a thousand miles
oh yes pictures worth a thousand words
grinding for a thousand days
you don't work you don't eat
Sitting on the couch don't pay
I am on my thousandth stage
this might be my thousandth song
for every time I got it right
There's a thousand times I got it wrong

Wrong are the ones that thought I'd finish last
or never finish I'm finished with dwelling on past
Now let us see what the future holds
I'm trying to see a thousand cities
And cross a thousand roads
Trying to make a thousand friends
But I'll keep my circle tight knit
Intricately woven and chosen they've been hand picked
and they soldiers they
Fought a thousand wars with me
seen a thousand casualties
stop and mourn with me
But rarely do I shed a tear
Live for something die for something
may I live a thousand years
through the legacy I leave behind
there's a thousand stars in my city that need to shine
There's a thousand mouths to feed maybe I'll reach a few
These preachers screaming out they lungs but barely reach a pew
and I'm barely waking up
My moment of clarity
I need a prayer
I got a thousand people there for me

but I've been told a thousand lies
I'd be a failure if it wasnt for that thousandth try
And for every time i've made you smile
There's a trail of my mistakes spanning a thousand miles
oh yes pictures worth a thousand words
grinding for a thousand days
you don't work you don't eat
Sitting on the couch don't pay
I am on my thousandth stage
this might be my thousandth song
for every time I got it right
There's a thousand times I got it wrong
