lyrics

I've paid lip service to a lot of things
Like taking a position and volunteering
Thought I was a body built real strong
Who'd stand up for the people who had been wronged

I've paid lip service to a lot of things
Like hating politicians and being a commie
But every other night I'm on the internet
Trying to feed the hedon in my head

I've got some learning to do
I've got some learning to do
I may know a thing or even two but
I've got some learning to do

I've paid lip service to hating the rich
But the damn good truth is I'm not in a pinch
Got a mom and a dad a house and a car
And its often said that I'll go far

So I looked myself up, looked myself down
Said "open your eyes girl, look around
You gotta bend your back, gotta work real hard
Cause there's so many people who deserve much more"

I've got some learning to do...

And I asked myself what about the police
And what if someone comes and steals from me
But there's not good excuse to make that call cause
The gun will come and someone's gonna lose it all

I've said some words that I regret
I've put my food deep down inside my head
But I had some friends who walked me through and
Said its ok but you got some learning to do

I've got some learning to do...
