I don't always make the right choice
I've left when I should have stayed
Yelled when I should have listened
Acted rashly, when I should have exercised patience
I've walked away from lovers, friends, family, and career opportunities
Because I lead with my heart
And if it doesn't feel right
Then I'll leave, before the bullshit starts
I try not to sit with regrets
Since I know I don't have all the answers
And that I'm just doing the best that I can
Not to disappoint those around me
Or let myself down
But, I don't always make the right choice
There are men who will say I broke their trust
Saw something better and left them in the dust
There are friends who will say I was shady
Hurt their feelings when they made me feel crazy
There is family who will say I don't show up
Prefer to stay at home and smoke my blunt
There are former bosses who will say I'm fickle and flighty Chances that I'll stay at a job for more than a few years is highly unlikely
I've had many situations that I wish I handled differently
People and relationships that I wish were still friendly
However, conviction is key
Whether or not time has changed my thoughts
At the time, I had to do what was right for me.
