An Apology

Floater is a band that I don’t like, but this song is my life.

So strip away all of my shadows
And light me up bnrighter than the sun
My hands are stong from building these gallows
Many will be left hanging before my time here is done
Before my time is done
Before my time is done

Well I could show you no merciful side again
I could just hold you, wouldn’t that be nice?
One thing I know by now is that in the end
You can never swim in the same river twice
Trying, you’re wasting your time

And I don’t know why god made me this way
(And I’m so sorry)
I don’t know how much more I can take
(And I’m so sorry)
You know it’s always my mistake
(And I’m so sorry)
And I’ll be sorry when I break you

So take high, fly me over the mountains
Cry of the raven and the scream of the dove
And I’ll be gone on the wings of the eagles
High road behind me, left everything that I loved
All of the things I loved

Oh I don’t know why god made me this way
(And I’m so sorry)
I don’t know how much more I can take
(And I’m so sorry)
You know it’s always my mistake
(And I’m so sorry)
And I’ll be sorry when I see that you’re gone
Gone away
Like a god gone astray
Not a word
will be spoken
of how it broke me when I saw you broken
Broken
Broken
When I broke you

Want it all but Can’t pay the bill
Just staring out my little window sill
My companion, one colorful pill
Nobody cares about what they can’t kill

Nobody cares about what they can’t kill.

They can’t kill truth.

Truth will break you.

I get it when you leave and you hate me for being the one that gave you the simple truth.

I know why God made me this way. Someone had to be me. So I got born. Had I known what I was getting myself into,  I still would’ve done it.

I love all living things.

The first line really hits home with me.

My shadows are where I’m comfortable. When I get lit up,  well you see the results. 

In metaphor I’ve been building these gallows all my life, all I need now is to hang em up.

Hanging them with the truth. 

I’m not violent and I don’t condone violence for any reason. That said if someone attacks me, they’ll be dead in less than 10sec.

I’m a pacifist whose also a martial artist. 

That’s no joke. That’s just the simple truth.

A fight is to the death or until you have mercy on them because they can’t attack anymore.

Fighting in the ufc, is not fighting. If you have rules there is no fighting. It’s sparring at best.

Simple truth.

And who gives a shit who the best sparrer is?

I don’t.

I know why God made me, do you know why he made you?

I can tell you but you have to contact me through email jimccarterjr@gmail.com two c’s.

I can tell any of you what God’s purpose is in your life.

I took an oath that I will only speak the truth.  If it’s opinion I’ll tell you it’s opinion. 

Have a blessed one and be excellent on purpose .
