Cocaine and Abel

The distance from the man that I am to the man I want to be
 The time it takes to realize time is the distance I need
 But I was born impatient
 
 And I was born unkind
 ♪
 But I refuse to believe I have to be
 the same person I was born when I die
 'Cause change is alright
 ♪
 Change is alright
 ♪
 I'm not proud of all the choices I've made for a lot of my life
 ♪
 Following the shadow when I damn well know that behind me is the light
 But I've lied to my mother
 I made people feel like hell
 But I refuse to believe I have to keep
 being cruel 'cause I'm a coward myself
 And time is impatience
 No, patience takes time
 ♪
 Excuses will only do good if you're waiting around to die
 ♪
 Everyone is born with self worth
 How easily it turns to doubt
 It takes letting go of what we know we can't live without
 ♪
 But the blood in the water
 Is the blood of my brother
 ♪
 We both learned it didn't mean a thing in
 the end if one was thicker than the other
 ♪
 And I've tried having faith
 But I'll rot like a dog
 
 'Cause I've always been scared of loving
 someone just a little bit more than I'm loved
 ♪
 Losing is fine
 ♪
 Everything is fine
