Lyrics

[Verse 1] You don't wanna live by too many morals Despite what your elders whispered in the cradle Don't wanna write the end before the start And you don't wanna dwell on what is beyond you Despite what your better virtues may tell you Don't wanna put the horse before the, you know what You know what Oh-oh, ohh-oh-oh, oh-ohh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh Oh-oh, ohh-oh-oh, oh-ohh-oh-oh [Verse 2] 'Cause it's best not to live by too many morals Enjoy the first sip before you finish the bottle Don't wanna lie in that bed before you made it And don't second-guess something once you believe it The world keeps on turning, if you take it or leave it Don't wanna put the course before the heart [Chorus] 'Cause you don't wanna write that finishing line Before you recall that arc in your mind Careful to not be so careful, before you step outside You don't wanna paint that finishing touch Till you recall what you're dreaming of You don't wanna preach yourself out Out of too much life, out of too much life [Verse 3] 'Cause it's best not to dwell On some other man's fortunes Another man's cravings, another girl's portions Don't wanna bet that sum before the parts And it's best not to fancy too many favors The more you win now, the less you will later Don't wanna put the horse before the cart [Verse 4] And you don't wanna whine Before you're dragged under Best to jump now, and think on it after It's best to be stupid and selfish while you're still young 'Cause you don't wanna be so overly cautious So fuckin' worried, you're lost in the process Best to forget yourself now, right at the start [Chorus] 'Cause you don't wanna write that finishing line Before you recall that arc in your mind Careful to not be so careful, when you step outside You don't wanna paint that finishing touch Before you recall what you're dreaming of You don't wanna preach yourself out Out of too much life, mm, life Don't wanna preach yourself out of life You don't wanna preach yourself out
