Lyrics:
Walk Away
Written By: Jeff McCool

Yea, I been going through a couple things
head spinning on the porch while the birds sing
i try and get into his care free mindset, time flies, getting old but i aint blind yet
A little life left and I'm a make the best of it
here i am burnt out now confessing it
where'd i go wrong is not the question at hand, but where i went right and became a man
kids looking up to me with grown folk crying
from the words that i spoken when i wasn't even trying
i wanna walk away but i dont know if i will let me
and if i walk away i dont know if i'll respect me
If i tried to walk away, would you let me
If i quit it all today, would you respect me
if i slowly start to fall would you hold me
See, they think I've got it all, but they don't know me
Sometimes I feel like my best is passed like i poured out my soul and filled up that glass
like i gave every ounce that i had to give
like writing bad checks cause i had to live
like going on the road when i felt like i was dying
falling to your knees and you couldn't stop crying
knowing that your time in the light is dim
knowing that it's time for the fat to trim
sometimes i feel like i keep on writing
just to say something that you think's exciting
i roll like thunder i flash like lighting
speaking from the heart while my chest is tightning
If i tried to walk away, would you let me
If i quit it all today, would you respect me
if i slowly start to fall would you hold me
See, they think I've got it all, but they don't know me
they dont have to know me as long as im true
winning's not a trophy, this is what i'm telling you
my bodys beat down, my heads a mess
they got me lying down trying to beat the stress
but i throw on a mask, paint it with a smile
fill another flask, and drive them miles
see, i love my fans without them i'm nil
and the hurt that i feel cant be fixed with a pill
did i stay too long writing you these songs
will you miss and respect me when im gone
you gotta realize that the clock dont stop
is it wrong that i wanna go out on top
If i tried to walk away, would you let me
If i quit it all today, would you respect me
if i slowly start to fall would you hold me
See, they think I've got it all, but they don't know me
