If I bat 1000 every time I swung
Thank God, they didn't go my way
All the plans I made and the prayers I prayed
Had I never had a heart break
I wouldn't know how to have a heart
And got everything I wanted
I wouldn't know faith if I didn't know fear
If I'm really being honest
'Cause I wouldn't be me, I wouldn't be here
But I never thought I'd be better off
No it didn't go the way I thought
Dumb enough to think it'd all come easy
Young enough to think if I work hard
Married up by 26, a millionaire by 33
Of how my life was gonna be
I had a little pretty picture in my head
I wouldn't know faith if I didn't know fear
If I'm really being honest
I wouldn't be me, I wouldn't be here
But...
No it didn't go the way I thought
Dumb enough to think it'd all come easy
Young enough to think if I work hard
Thank God, they didn't go my way
All the plans I made and the prayers I prayed
Had I never had a heart break
I wouldn't know how to have a heart
And got everything I wanted
I wouldn't know faith if I didn't know fear
If I'm really being honest
'Cause I wouldn't be me, I wouldn't be here
I'd a never been ready for your love
If she hadn't left me, wrecked me, messed me up
I'd a never been the underdog
Thank God, they didn't go my way
All the plans I made and the prayers I prayed
Had I never had a heart break
I wouldn't know how to have a heart
And got everything I wanted
