Beat You to the Punch Lyrics

Made up my mind a long time ago
I promised myself not to give it all away
Swore I wouldn't make the same mistake
Would not be left for dead again
And you know what

I should not have to carry the weight
THE WEIGHT OF YOUR MISTAKES
When familiar faces become the unknown
friendship suddenly seems MILES AWAY
Eyes show truth behind hollow words

When push comes to shove
you better run fast
cause this is a struggle to the last
With a burning passion
I'll send this message to you
Cause I'll always strife for
HIGHER GOALS IN MY LIFE
And hearing something
like this coming from you
sure proves that you don't know me like you think you do.
