Jesus like cash
I've never sang in one of them old Honky Tonks
Can't say I have paid the cost,
Of what them great Cowboys lost,
while out punching the trail
cuz I've never done it myself
But theres something about me
since i was a child
Cant help the feeling of being free
n running wild
Roaming the plains,
really living lifes game ,
blowing across the land
like an old dusty tumbleweed
idk why its just something
my soul seems to need
Keep your eyes to...

My sons My sons!
My sons My sons
My beautiful baby boys,
First Connor and Stetson
And now Baby Everett
Each, my little bundle of joys
You each have opened my eyes
And made me realize I had it all wrong
The road I was on, and my way of life
Wasn't where it needed to be all along.
The person I had become
The individual I could see
I knew he had to go, I had to change
To the man I I needed to be
The choice was simple
No other option was left
For my fright was now gone
And my heart you have since kept ...

Humble Man
The things I've seen
And the places I've been
Are not for the faint of heart,
Could lead any sane man
To a life of sin;
Its a weight I carry
Each day and Every night,
It may not look like it
But deep down its a constant fight;
A battle between good and evil
A constant War of right and wrong,
It would be so easy to just give up
Yet i strive to survive
Im just trying to remain strong;
As the years pass
My mind and soul begin to age,
The book that represents this life
Gain...

My Dog and me
The year was 1993'
Walking down the street,
just my dog and me
I was a little big man
at only 14 ..
I was hell bent
to make it on my own
mighta been
just a boy,
but man let me tell ya
that boy
sure thought he was grown...
And lord he wasn't alone....
Nowhere bound
headed outta town,
told my self
least you aint
in the lost and found,
aint no good life
living like that,
no way in hell
I'm ever going back
I'll go...

Better man
In all the years ive been alive'
Havent found the answers
or even how
to ask the big man why,
is it where ive been,
could it be ive seen so much sin
And the heartach
ive drug myself through.
Time after time, pain on top of pain
After i almost gave up everything.
Then he led me to you.
Ain it Funny
how a man
can think hes got it all figured out,
when truth is he knows nothing about
, the things you just cant see,
until you...

Stay
I never thought id see the day
An angel would come
flying my way
Or that the devil in me
could change
and get her...
to stay...
Stayyyyyyyy. Staaaaaaayyy.
then it happened, there i was....
Down and broken, and all alone
Without any last prayer unspoken,
and I had flipped over every stone.
On a Saturday after noon,
I finally got my chance
to welcome My angel home!
stay, ill do anything,
as long as you stay...
I hope you see, ...

Hey girl
6-27-19
A long time ago,
There was a little girl,
Kinda of a shining light
sent down to this world..
She was raised up fast
but inside she grew real slow,
How that girl made it
Dont nobody know
An angel from heaven,
With a heart made of
gold...
A simple reminder,
to keep Jesus in your
soul..
Haunted by her demons,
It was anything, to ease her pain..
Just trying to find a little comfort ,
that girl turned to the devil when she hurt... ...

"Lost inside my own head"
The figurative gun is on the table,
Id like to put it down
for good if im able.
Ive pulled that hypothetical trigger hoping to hear that sound;
But all that happens, is the cylinder spins proving yet another empty round.
Without any sign of life
just deep, endless blackness that engulfs this room;
My demons will be
appearing soon.
Out of the smoke I can scarcely make them out, taunting me from afar;
From the glow emitted by this burning ember,
I notice their eyes are as black as char.
Its been many...
