Better Man lyrics

(Ok) (Check this out) I remember when my daddy had taken me by the head He said: This life is hard, get ahead while you can And boy, that man's eye ain't no easy way around Make too many wrong steps and it's a long way down Keep climbing but remember not matter what you believe If you're searching for an answer try falling onto your knees There'll be difficult decisions the kind we all have to make I was standing in your shoes when I first heard my father say Son let me tell you what I know I've seen that glory just come and go Every fallen angel comes back, though But some come a little too late Man, that kind of life is a highway You gotta be careful what exit you take Got a lot of miles to cover with just one tank Maybe it's time to hit the brakes An be a better man Don't you wanna be a better man? (Yeah) Time went on and I got older found my way to make my life I can tell you it all changed on the day that I met my wife Made a choice to live it better, wanna be here for my kids Wanna raise them up with values, man, just like my parents did I'ma teach them no ones perfect you sleep in the bed you make And that truth is in the eyes not in them hands that you shake Sometimes this life ain't fair and it doesn't follow your plan But just remember who's upstairs he's reaching down for your hand Son let me tell you what I know I've seen that glory just come and go Every fallen angel comes back though But some come a little too late Man, that kind of life is a highway You gotta be careful what exit you take Got a lot of miles to cover with just one tank Maybe it's time to hit the brakes An be a better man Don't you wanna be a better man? (Yeah) (Yeah, you all listen up) When it's time to meet my maker want to make it through them gates Want to reunite with family Yeah man I can barely wait I'ma tell them that I love them Took a while to understand But it was coming home to them that made me be a better man (Better man) (Better man) (Better man) (Better man) (Better man) Son let me tell you what I know I've seen that glory just come and go Every fallen angel comes back, though But some come a little too late Man, that kind of life is a highway You gotta be careful what exit you take Got a lot of miles to cover with just one tank Maybe it's time to hit the brakes An be a better man (Be a better man) (Be a better man) Don't you wanna be a better man? (Come on) (Come on) (Don't you wanna) Be a better man (You can be better than this) (Yeah) Don't you wanna be a better man? (Do it for your loved ones man, do it for your friends) (Come on) (Come on) (Don't you wanna) Be a better man (Be a better man) (Be a better man) Don't you wanna be a better man? (I think it's time. How about you?) (Don't you wanna) Be a better man (Be a better man) (Be a better man) Don't you wanna be a better man? (Yeah) (Come on)
