Glitter

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jelly Roll] Livin' my life in the rear view and I'm haunted by My past and sometimes I just wanna die (Die) I need to change my ways (Ways), mama, I'm gonna try (Try) But that's a lie 'cause you heard me say that a thousand times I said Lord please help me 'Cause I've been living unhealthy And the life that I've been livin' Lord (Livin' Lord) Can I really be forgiven for? [Chorus: Jelly Roll] And I don't wanna let you go I think about you now everywhere I roll Somewhere down the road, I lost my soul And I know 'cause it glitters doesn't mean it's gold And I don't wanna hurt nobody I just wanna let the truth be told I don't wanna hurt nobody But I'm about to lose my self control (Control) [Verse 2: Jelly Roll] And they ask me how I'm feelin' I'm somewhere between Hendrix and Robin Williams Hide behind the tears of a clown (Clown) And the sound (Sound), of silence (Silence), it seems so loud (So loud) Would you just look at me now When I take a shot of Crown and wash this Percocet down Played the victim for too long to justify my habits Knowing everything I touch turns tragic (Tragic) [Chorus: Jelly Roll] And I don't wanna let you go I think about you now everywhere I roll Somewhere down the road, I lost my soul And I know 'cause the glitters doesn't mean it's gold And I don't wanna hurt nobody I just wanna let the truth be told I don't wanna hurt nobody But I'm about to lose my self (Struggle) control (Control) [Verse 3: Struggle Jennings] I guess I'm narcissistic 'cause I'm tryin' to get it Am I bein' selfish attemptin' to rid my life from the drama in it? See it was harder comin' home than goin' in Hard to understand that statement unless you came from where I've been Why its difficult to do right but so easy to sin Findin' peace in losin' to move on from the chaos of the win That demon in the mirror is still the saint that he portrays So the songs of tomorrow borrow sorrows from today [Chorus: Jelly Roll] And I don't wanna let you go I think about you now everywhere I roll Somewhere down the road, I lost my soul And I know 'cause it glitters doesn't mean it's gold And I don't wanna hurt nobody I just wanna let the truth be told I don't wanna hurt nobody But I'm about to lose my self control (Control) [Outro: Jelly Roll] And I don't wanna let you go I think about you now everywhere I roll Somewhere down the road, I lost my soul And I know 'cause it glitters doesn't mean it's gold
