Please check out my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@firstep3 https://youtu.be/lg6iJDo_FlQ I’ve been thrown from bulls and barstools too, Even thrown in jail a time or two. Got a busted lip from a jealous man, And a fresh tattoo I don’t understand. I've woke up broke in a one-horse town, Met folks who helped, others let me down. Ain’t proud of every fight I’ve fought, 'Cause pain and scars are all I got. These scars that mark my skin don’t lie, They tell a truth I can’t deny. They'll never fade, but they remind Of all the pain I've left behind. I’ve made my peace with where I’ve been, Hell, half that shit I'd do again. I’ll have to live with the things I’ve done, Each scar’s a story I can’t outrun. I’ve seen the best and worst in me, Watched joy turn into misery. Spent long nights backin' the losing side, I paid my dues, then swallowed my pride. I broke some hearts never meant to hurt, Been knocked face-down into the dirt. You learn real quick what life demands, 'Cause it don't owe you a helpin' hand. These scars that mark my skin don’t lie, They tell a truth I can’t deny. They'll never fade, but they remind Of all the pain I've left behind. I’ve made my peace with where I’ve been, Hell, half that shit I'd do again. I’ll have to live with the things I’ve done, Each scar’s a story I can’t outrun. If I could turn back time, I might, But I’d still have to stand and fight, 'Cause hell, the man that I've become, Was built from every wrong I’ve done. These scars that mark my skin don’t lie, They tell a truth I can’t deny. They'll never fade, but they remind Of all the pain I've left behind. I’ve made my peace with where I’ve been, Hell, half that shit I'd do again. I’ll have to live with the things I’ve done, Each scar’s a story I can’t outrun.
