Jack Kennedy - Life in a Mess Lyrics

Life in a mess
Thought I could fix it with some wine
But the thing I really needed
Was some money and some time
Who knew?
Should have taken some advice
That's true
But I wouldn't be where I am
If I had that is too
I made some mistakes
Got drunk
Said some shit I'd with I'd forget
Learned from all of it though
I think that's most important
Just trying to keep moving forward
It's only now connecting dots
And looking back I understand the order
Not before it
I regret nothing
But I miss a lot of people
Sometimes the best thing you can do
Is let someone leave you
And you know
That shit gonna hurt
But it's also gonna teach you
That you don't need them
And they don't need you
Knew that nothing grows without some rain
Hearts get strong with some pain
Nothing good can stay the same
There's opportunity in change
To have me do it different
There's no money you could pay
We weren't afraid
And it made what we became
Along the way I'm saying

Spent all my money
Still I gotta pay rent
Spent all my time
Wondering where you've been
Paid all my dues
I'm feeling too close now
I gotta turn that shit around
Turn that shit around

I probably trusted too much
People owe me some money
But at least I took a chance
Outcomes I'm used to overcoming
All good
Either way they can say
They hate me or love me
I do my thing
Who really cares if they judge me?
Everybody on their own path
Been focused on mine
Nothing's perfect but it will be in time
That's why I sit here and smile
Always felt
My dreams aren't big enough
If I don't need some help
I played it too safe
If I never get hurt by someone else
I'm saying

Spent all my money
Still I gotta pay rent
Spent all my time
Wondering where you've been
Paid all my dues
I'm feeling too close now
I gotta turn that shit around
Turn that shit around

This ain't a straight path its a winding road
It took me years to finally find my flow
It took me tears to force myself to grow
It took me fear so I can talk this bold
Trying to forget about life
Going exactly to the letter
And accept when it happens in time
It's happening better
And good and bad
Sometimes they happen together
But no matter what it is
We gonna laugh at whatever
That's where my head at I'm saying

Spent all my money
Still I gotta pay rent
Spent all my time
Wondering where you've been
Paid all my dues
I'm feeling too close now
I gotta turn that shit around
Turn that shit around
