about

This song is kinda personal as it's about a musician that I had met earlier this year named Adam Goodwill. He had dated a really good friend of mine for about a month but turned out to be a dangerous psychopath. For legal reasons, I can't get into any details about anything. I do, however, hope that he gets the mental help he needs. Also, I've seen YouTube videos of him singing before he'd taken them down and I think he's very talented but he's too unstable and I'll just leave it at that.

The lyrics are me saying good riddance to that dude.

lyrics

[Verse]
You got a cleft lip scar and a bad attitude
I bet you do your mama proud
Best watch your back or you might get screwed
I hear the showers get loud

[Chorus]
But in the end I wish no ill will on a fake
And I know I’m not the only one
May God be our judge for your life ain’t mine to take
I smile every time I see you try to run

[Verse]
You’re a no-talent hack who can’t get a gig
Not a chance in your life
Your mental problems are making you big
You’re always causing strife

[Chorus]

[Guitar solo]

[Verse]
Try not to get yourself locked up in the pen
I heard you tend to drop the soap
It’s not a matter of if but when
You’ll lose all hope

[Chorus]

[Outro]

We all can go insane with just one bad day. And I've had plenty of bad days. Then after going to the 2019 Harvest Crusade down in Anaheim and rededicating my life to Jesus Christ, I decided to use my songwriting to please God. I was tired of getting stabbed in the back so many times and playing in certain bands that never went anywhere. This project is me letting go of my past. Enjoy the ride. ... more
