well i’ve got this friend
who’s got it all together
he tells me there’s only one thing
that will ever last forever

“go ahead and try and make your mark”
the whole worlds flammable
and you carry a spark

when i tell my friend i’m not praying for fame
he just smiles and says you must be insane
naw, you just need to take a closer look
to see your place in the history books

he tries to tell me
that God’s all in my head
but my head’s full of selfishness instead
God’s not all in my heart
God’s not all out on my tongue
so don’t tell me God’s all in my head

well i leave my friend
and I go out for a drive
and the billboards i read
say, “man you’re lucky to be alive”

cause with the smoke you’re breathing
just with your windows rolled down
don’t you think it’s time you left this town?

but i respond to myself
i know why i’m here
god has a plan for me
don’t whisper in my ear

you can take a backseat
oh you doubt
or i’ll throw you out
