Tim Knecht - Live It, to Learn It Lyrics

Some of us learn from watching others
We see the mistakes people make
And are sure to do different
But then there are others like myself
That have to go through hell
Doing things the hard way
We live it to learn it

I didnt understand what was wrong
With drinkin and druggin
I thought everyone
Was just trying to bring me down
Then too many pills one day
Almost put me in the grave
A hard lesson, that could have been avoided

They tell ya, not to break a young girls heart
But I didnt care I always did what I want
I'd sneak around and cheat on girls that I claimed to love so much
I lost alot of good women, to my lust

Deep down I knew I should follow the Lord
But I always turned away and ran my own course
And after many wasted years, bad choices, and bitter tears
I finally gave my life up to Him
I finally gave my life up to Him
