Maybe
Social Club Misfits Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I spent all my life
I spent all my life
All my thoughts tell me that I should let it ride
Something tells me that I shouldn't compromise
So I'm gon' say that they gone, please don't waste my time
They wonder if I'll ever change
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe
And if I do are you gon' turn away?
Hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man

Yeah, yeah
Not the same person I was when you met me
Going to church every Sunday, I actually like it
Hurt by the people I trusted, I promised I wouldn't go back
But I lied I guess, I don't know why I'm blessed
My eyes are still waterproof
Look I'm back like the prodigal
They don't love you like I love you
I don't think that's even possible
Yeah, why do you want me
I've been talking to God
When I asked why he didn't respond, he said "you talking too much"
He said "didn't I make you?
The sun, the moon, the stars
And if this world hates you, it's because you are mine"

I spent all my life
I spent all my life
All my thoughts tell me that I should let it ride
Something tells me that I shouldn't compromise
So I'm gon' say that they gone, please don't waste my time
They wonder if I'll ever change
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe
And if I do are you gon' turn away?
Hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man

One time for the first time
Wish that I could go and just reverse time
And right wrongs in the worst times
But it's over now, just verse rhymes
Just pour out what I went through
In the hopes that y'all won't get caught up
In the same things I got into
But if so, this verse I wrote
When you hear it, it serves like a GPS
It'll guide you to your home and leave you blessed
The songs that we write meant to point you to Christ
So when they tell me they cry when they listen to it
I'm not surprised, I probably wrote it crying
This loving rhymes through all them times
Marty and I made a pact till we die
We gone rhyme for the misfits with our hope in the sky

I spent all my life
I spent all my life
All my thoughts tell me that I should let it ride
Something tells me that I shouldn't compromise
So I'm gon' say that they gone, please don't waste my time
They wonder if I'll ever change
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe




And if I do are you gon' turn away?
Hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man
