Jon Putman: You know, they say everything's bigger in Texas, so... Maybe... Maybe you'll blow up [Verse 1] I'm running out of options People say they with you Then they turn around and drop it I been through the trenches I’m surprised that I ain’t popped yet Gave my heart away to some people that didn’t want it I got it back, but the pain ain’t stopped yet I’m gettin used to this, happens a lot yet I give it all I got In every single song Yeah, I know that people gossip I’m sick of all that talking Sick of all these flakes running around with my name And I’m mad all these fakes gain fame in the game And I’m pissed that the real ones don’t see lights I’m talking stadium, great heights Like I wanna see us all win Supposed to be same team I ain’t feeling it Everybody mad bout their own little thing Ain’t we supposed to love and not hate? But hatred is the name of the game now It ain’t even about bars or spitting flame now Everything is all about who better than I’m glad Pandacafe is made of better friends Give me one good reason not to quit right now Like wow, everything discouraging I’m proud of the crowd for sticking with the sound And going insane Every time we step out, uh [Hook] And I know, yeah That this is not an easy road It's hard life to live So I'm just driving down Essex [Verse 2] Sometimes I think like If I had never started this What would it be like? I don’t know if I would even be alive Depression would have eaten me alive I thank God for the people he surrounded me with And I think of all the memories astounding me with All of the people that were in and out And all the ones who really stuck with me through everything It’s abounding me with Joy and peace and love and trust I’m sorry to the ones that I left in the dust And I forgive the ones who didn’t show me love Even when I did what I could to build them up Not everybody understands what I’m doing Yeah, I’m a Christian, but my music Isn’t just for people who already have a faith I make it for the people who were lost along the way And need to know that everything is gonna be okay There’s always sunny days that come after the rain And when it rains, it pours, I get it I been through it I wasn’t ready for the sunlight But now I know that everything is going right It gets dark, but there’s more life On the other side of all that you feel To make Smiling, I needed Too Real Detour
