Lyrics Changed Ways - 2-Tone Eternal

Yeah... Divorce is like morning a death!
It takes time to heal. We need space to reflect...
To learn... to grow... to break the cycle...
And ultimately change... for the better

A lost soul in the midst, searching for the truth
Put my trust in things, but never trusted you
Thought my plan would work, flippin' books for cash
All I did was hurt; I hid behind a mask
Never loved myself, it showed in how I act
Dwellin' in the past; a frozen heart attack
Wishin' I could change... the things that hurt me most
Never understood... that love is just a choice
Avoiding love and trust; I'd rather lust and bust
Fillin' up a void, but nothing's good enough
Life is passing by; I watch children grow
Fearing that I'll die, miserably alone
Planted evil seeds; I reaped what I've sown
Please believe in me; I weep from the soul
I long to see the day, when I can let it go
Free to see the light; it's all relational

Precious woman, I never wanted us to part
The love of my life, but I was gone from the start
I never meant to hurt you and hate to see you cry
It was hard for me to fight when I was crumblin' inside
Sometimes... I gaze upon the sky
And pray that you'll be happy with another loving guy
We both deserve the best in our quest to live our days
I'm thankful that we met, 'cause you helped me change my ways

I'm not the same man... that I used to be
Thank you Lord for restoring me and blessing me
Living life it's a new day... HEY...
I'm livin' better now wit' my Changed Ways
Thank you God for my Changed Ways
I prayed to God to see Better Days
Through the flames I can See Your Face
Livin' free wit' my Changed Ways

Reflecting on all of the women, who let me hit it
I was never happy but I couldn't admit it
Thinking sex would numb the pain but the emptiness remained
Climax and release, then convicted of blood stains
My body's not my body but a temple for the Lord
But when I got bored it was porn I explored
Ignoring that I'm sanctified with divine purpose
Transforming to an angry guy avoiding church service
Having sexual urges; our marital state worsened
Cursing with resentment thinking married life was worthless
I should have read the word and pressed into worship
But I was more concerned with Ancient Alien sermons
My faith became weak from a spiritual disturbance
Having visions of demons dragging me in a furnace
In retrospect, I wish I would have covered you in love
But I didn't accept my role and now divorce does

Precious woman, I never wanted us to part
The love of my life, but I was gone from the start
I never meant to hurt you and hate to see you cry
It was hard for me to fight when I was crumblin' inside
Sometimes... I gaze upon the sky
And pray that you'll be happy with another loving guy
We both deserve the best in our quest to live our days
I'm thankful that we met, 'cause you helped me change my ways

I'm not the same man... that I used to be
Thank you Lord for restoring me and blessing me
Living life it's a new day... HEY...
I'm livin' better now wit' my Changed Ways
Thank you God for my Changed Ways
I prayed to God to see Better Days
Through the flames I can See Your Face
Livin' free wit' my Changed Ways

Wake up – SHINE; don't take it for granted
This life will break you down if you ain't spiritually planted
Time passes by like a blink of an eye
To those who find love it's like a star in the sky
Although you don't always see it; you always know it's there
So even in the face of death LOVE IS STILL THERE
And some still tear at their significant other
Arguing and fighting like blood sisters and brothers
Resenting one another seeking undercover lovers
Please get some help before it's too late to recover
I took a trip to Chimney Rock where I once proposed
This time I dropped on my knees and cleansed my soul
I vow to love my future wife and not repeat mistakes
And cherish that woman so her heart will never break
Looking deep into her eyes, and saying that I love her
Her spiritual cover, best friend and deepest lover

Precious woman, I never wanted us to part
The love of my life, but I was gone from the start
I never meant to hurt you and hate to see you cry
It was hard for me to fight when I was crumblin' inside
Sometimes... I gaze upon the sky
And pray that you'll be happy with another loving guy
We both deserve the best in our quest to live our days
I'm thankful that we met, 'cause you helped me change my ways

I'm not the same man... that I used to be
Thank you Lord for restoring me and blessing me
Living life it's a new day... HEY...
I'm livin' better now wit' my Changed Ways
Thank you God for my Changed Ways
I prayed to God to see Better Days
Through the flames I can See Your Face
Livin' free wit' my Changed Ways (Uh...)
