Back to Good


How can we ever fully
  count the cost
When your life-long goals
  seems t'have been lost
Can really be the person we
  know that we should
Or change our coarse &
  get back to good
They say Jr. you just 
  have to make up your mind
But how? When it looks my chances
  have been left behind
In so, where do you find a smile
  to put on your face?
When the truth is on the inside it
  feels I've fallen from Grace
Lord will I ever be able to find
  my way back home
Or stay stuck in this place where
 hope is dead and gone
Wouldn't it be easier to just turn
  back the hands of time
Or maybe cause a train to 
  stop on a dime
Should I just quit & throw up
  my hands
Or cry out to Jesus & finially 
  take a stand
Learning that if I fall to 
  get back up again
And that if I pray without
  cease the devil can never win
Reach out to God knowing He'll
 take me by the hand
Then show me how to live &
  finally be a man!
