Levi Lowrey - Like They Should lyrics

When I was young I coulda sworn That I'd set the world on fire Take the world by storm With my words Wires and wood Things don't always turn out like they should I really thought you'd be around In sickness and in health In the country or in town Better or worse bad and good But things don't always turn out like they should I've chased dreams just to watch them burn Been deemed unworthy of the things I earned It's a side effect of living You'd change it if You could Things don't always turn out like they should Grandma got sick back in o'twelve We asked God not to take her Wanted her for ourselves Got our answer oneFriday night Yeah things don't always turn out like we'd like I've chased dreams just to watch them burn Been deemed unworthy of the things I earned It's a side effect of living You'd change it if You could Things don't always turn out like they should There's a tree out in the yard Reaching toward the heavens Trying to touch the stars Thunderstorm laid it down All it's good intentions on the ground I split it up. I built a fire Warming up my family with its funeral pyre So who knows. Maybe it' good Things don't always turn out like they should I've chased dreams just to watch them burn Been deemed unworthy of the things I earned It's a side effect of living wouldn't change it if I could Things don't always turn out like they should
