I Know Better Now

[Verse 1]
I used to think what goes around
Would surely come back around
But I know better now
Thought those dreams I was chasing
Would finally gain some ground
But I know better now
I thought you danced to your own rhythm
Second chances were a given
And everyone gets to share the crown

[Chorus]
But I know better now
I know a deep breath keeps you breathing
Your heart's beating if you're bleeding
Prayer keeps you flying when the weight's tryna drag you down
I know a song keeps you singing
A little curve keeps you swinging
You lean a lot harder onto faith when your luck runs out
The pain cuts to the nervе
And I'm no stranger to the hurt
But I know bettеr now

[Verse 2]
When I was a child, I walked like a child
Talked like a child and thought like a child
But I know better now
Got a little further down the road
And learned life's a string of things you gotta let go
And hope they come back around
And if they do, you let them in a little more
Hit your knees and thank the good Lord
And if they don't, oh, you thank Him all the same

[Chorus]
But I know better now
I know a deep breath keeps you breathing
Your heart's beating if you're bleeding
Prayer keeps you flying when the weight's tryna drag you down
I know a song keeps you singing
A little curve keeps you swinging
You lean a lot harder onto faith when your luck runs out
The pain cuts to the nerve
And I'm no stranger to the hurt
But I know better now

[Bridge]
I learned love works like a medicine
And the scars are the evidence
Whatever's in the past is irrelevant

[Chorus]
I know better now
A deep breath keeps you breathing
Your heart's beating if you're bleeding
Prayer keeps you flying when the weight's tryna drag you down
I know a song keeps you singing
A little curve keeps you swinging
You lean a lot harder onto faith when your luck runs out
The pain cuts to the nerve
And I'm no stranger to the hurt
But I know better now

[Outro]
I know better now
