Rejoice or Pray

[Verse 1]

So here I am, back again

Scrapped like I meant nothing

One big false alarm

Not sure how I ended up here, but now that I am

It's time to pave my own way and make myself a better man

Caught up in the wrong crowd, they didn't let me see

All the demons in my closet, staring straight back at me

I loosened up my grip, un-tightened my belt

I lose myself in the moment, say I didn't help, yet

[Verse 2]

I should've paid attention, then I would've seen that

Our relationship was smothеring me

I faked being sick somе days just to be on my own

But I don't know how it went from friends to love then back again

To slicing through what's left of my heart

I think I knew I'd end up back here

But now I don't even care

Your head doesn't rule my heart

[Chorus]

There's no way I'll rejoice or pray

'Til Jesus Christ is staring back at me

Now we're right back, back where we started

Now there's no way I'll rejoice or pray

'Til Jesus Christ is staring back at me

Now we're right back, back where we started

[Verse 3]

So here I am, back again, 'til death clearly meant nothing

One big false alarm

Not sure how I ended up here

Even though I'm better now, I put myself through the ringer

Came out of it a better man

You follow in the footsteps of your family

It seems the apple don't fall too far from the tree

Don't want to see you face to face, no vis-a-vis

[Chorus]

There's no way I'll rejoice or pray

'Til Jesus Christ is staring back at me

Now we're right back, back where we started

Now there's no way I'll rejoice or pray

'Til Jesus Christ is staring back at me

Now we're right back, back where we started

Yeah, we're right back, back where we started

Yeah, we're right back, back where we started
