Halfway There

I remember you told me you would
leave on the light
Now I'm in the hardest of days
and afraid of the night
You told me to prepare
Get ready
You're halfway there
Went through the house and I tossed everything
I don't need
Ripped out the flowers and fences and left me with
seed
And you told me
Don't be scared
Get ready
You're halfway there
Sitting in the backseat
Asking are we there yet
Crying bout what I deserve and
What I should get
How many miles do I have to go?
I don't know, who knows you just never ever know
It's not my strong suit but
Patience is helping me through
You always believed in me
now
I'm believing in you
And you told me
There's so much to share
Get ready
You're halfway there

Don't Bet Against Me

Talk is cheap I've often heard it said
Try to walk the path inside my head
Embellishing in order to impress
Embarrassed to admit that I'm a mess
But to lie just to prove makes no sense
But your honor, I'd say in my defense
You don't have to bet on me
But don't bet
Against me
You don't have to count on me
but don't count
Me out
I know that the odds are long and I'm often wrong
But I'm seldom in doubt
You don't have to bet on me
But don't count me out
I know you don't remember what you said
But I can't get those words out of my head
To you it probably wasn't no big deal
You ripped a wound that never heals
And I'll spend my whole life trying to show
That I'm worthy to those I don't know
You don't have to bet on me
But don't bet
Against me
You don't have to count on me
but don't count
Me out

You don't need
and
I don't have
So let me stop pretending I do
Acting like I'm ballin
When my bank account is fallin
Well ain't that a fine howdoyado?
You don't need
and
I don't have
I'm in the red but also quite blue
Let me take care of what little I got
Baby you can take care of you
I like to show the best of me
The east and the west of me
But when I open my mouth
It all goes south
And that's of course when my ego goes north
So let me stop the yapping and
All the gum flapping
Acting like I live on 5th Ave
We may never meet on the easiest street
But baby you don't need and I don't have
I like to show the best of me
The east and the west of me
But when I open my mouth
It all goes south
And that's of courth when my ego goes north
So let me stop the yapping and
All the gum flapping
You know what? I can walk, why don't you take the cab?
I'll be fine once my pride gets in line
You don't need and I don't have
(that may change)
You don't need and I don't have
(can you spare some change?)
You don't need
and
I don't have
