Goodbye

So, goodbye to everything I've ever known
No longer a child, the process of being grown
God was calling me, I finally picked up the phone
Throwing my deuces to the world, I'm telling her I'm gone
I was wasting my life, just following these clones
I'm now in the scriptures, I'm building up stronger bones
I'm not gonna front. Sometimes I feel I'm all alone
Sitting at home and feeling like, "Dang, I'm on my own"
That's why I reminisce and think about them old days
Temptation trying to bring me back into my old ways
Maybe if I had just a piece of my past
Then I'd feel a little better, and this pain won't have to last
But, things have changed, I don't see things like I use to
A new vision, now I see things in a clear view
I calculate things different, I got a new math
This road is narrow, but I know this is the right path
Now I don't say this just make you think I'm better than you
I'm just praying hoping that you would ride with me too
And throw them deuces up to the ways of this world
See this song is dedicated to my ex-girl

It's hard for me to say, but I got to say it
Goodbye... goodbye... goodbye
It's hard, but I know I got to say it, so...
Goodbye... goodbye

So, goodbye to everything that weighed me down
My life was one big circus surrounded by clowns
But I've been resurrected, my feet are off the ground
I'm on the rise and the destination is kingdom bound
I got a new viewpoint, a heavenly perspective
No longer chasing my dreams, I got a new objective
My friends say I'm tripping, they say I'm too religious
I'm on my cell, looking for them, erasing their digits
I can't hang with them, I can't compromise
Cuz it corrupts good judgement, I now realize
That if I keep them close, I keep my sins closer
And find myself doing things that I know I'm not supposed to
Do, that's why I just remember them in prayer
And pray the day comes when I'll see them all shoot up a flare
Cuz that would be the day, that they'll admit their lost
And that'll be the day when I lead them to the cross

So throw your deuces up... throw your deuces up
Tell the world you don't belong, throw them deuces up
Throw the, deuces up... just throw them deuces up
Tell that girl you are gone...deuces up
So throw your deuces up... throw your deuces up
Tell the world you don't belong, throw them deuces up
Throw the, deuces up... just throw them deuces up
Tell that boy you are gone... deuces up

It's hard for me to say, but I got to say it
Goodbye... goodbye... goodbye
It's hard, but I know I got to say it, so...
Goodbye... goodbye
