I Can Do Better

[Verse One]
I remember I committed to those vows
You were standing there in white
Beautiful in mind, irrefutable in sight
They say it works best with undoubtable belief
I looked you in your eyes and I know I did it right

Always heard the honeymoon would happen in a stage
Marriage is forever, wedding happens in a day
I cherished many moments, but I let too many pass
Cause I focused on the bad
The moments when we crashеd

Why was it so easy to tell you all that I hated?
Morе than all the things I truly appreciated?
Why would I intentionally try to stay irritated
With somebody God placed, created and designated
To be partner for a life, partner in the Christ
Working out of love instead of working out of spite
Wedding ring nice, but the marriage should be bright
I can make it worse or I can start to get it right

[Hook]
I know I can do better
I can do better
I can do better
I'mma do better
(x3)

Yeah, I know
Let it be so

[Verse Two]
Sometimes you tell me you don’t like the way I do things
I just get defensive
I just catch a mood swing
I don’t pay attention
I would understand if I was there, in your position
Should’ve caught the point, but I ain’t even try to listen
Life was really nice when I would listen to the wisdom
You don't feel like a wife, you're only feeling like a victim
And maybe if I took responsibility to start
We could finally begin to work our way out of the system

I've been telling you 'bout what you always do
Not admitting to the fact it isn't always you
And I got so used to throwing out that "always" word
That always hurts
It’s something that is always true

We're supposed to be reflections of the image of God
Lately, I've been giving reasons for your headache to throb
Bible tells me I should love
Without any conditions
And that's how I'm aware that I ain't doing my job

[Hook]

[Verse Three]
I don't know what chapter this is, but I'mma write it
Way too many times that we could have been divided
Standing in front of you and I'm looking in your eyes
Best moment of my life
That's the moment I decided

I'mma walk with you even when you can't stand me
Sugar sweet love, you my favorite kinda candy
We gon' have a child, you the mommy, I'm the daddy
But we know The Holy Father is the leader of the Family

I apologize, I was wrong, I am sorry
Holy spirt army, stand around me, come and guard me
Now we feel the spark that we felt when first met
Let's celebrate the occasion, it's our little private party
You're my partner for a life, partner in the Christ
Working out of love, instead of working out of spite
Wedding ring nice, but the marriage should be bright
Time to start to get it right
I know
