One Shot

There's so much knowledge out there
There's so much information, so many ways to get better
And we make, we make so many mistakes
We're the product of our mistakes
And oftentimes the lesson is sitting there right in front of our face
It's there to be learned, but we miss it or we don't pay attention to it
Or we think we know better, until it punches us in the face
And the most important thing to learn is that we have so much to learn
We all do
And we can learn from school and people and from experience
And we learn from life

[Chorus]
You get one shot
One shot at this gig right here
Life
One life, that's all you got
One life
One shot

But you have to process the information and you have to absorb it
You have to accept it, you have to open your mind
You gotta free your mind so that you can learn
And make real progress
And as far as regrets and things I wish I would've done differently, of course
Hindsight, hindsight is 20/20
And looking back, of course, who wouldn't wanna take another go at something
And improve on the first try by doing it again?
And then why not do it again and again and again?
Why not do it over and over again until you have it perfect?
But the fact is, you don't get that chance

[Chorus]
You get one shot
One shot at this gig right here
Life
One life, that's all you got
One life
One shot

And regret, in and of itself, it's worthless
It does nothing for you in fact
The only valuable thing in regret is the lesson you learned
The knowledge that you gain
But walking around filled with regret
Gets you nothing
So, learn and move on
Don't let regret beat you down
Don't be a slave to regret, no
Let it teach you
Let it make you better
Let the fear of regret fuel you
To take action today
Now
Now

[Chorus]
You get one shot
One shot at this gig right here
Life
One life, that's all you got
One life
One shot

[Chorus]
You get one shot
One shot at this gig right here
Life
One life, that's all you got
One life
One shot

Take action now to become a better person
Not filled with regret
But filled with knowledge
Filled with knowledge and strength and power
And filled with life
