Bitter Lyrics

Bitter Lyrics

{“You didn’t know I was coming?
You didn’t want pa to hear you up here singing, huh?
You didn’t want your father to see ya? Huh, C-Lite?
C’mon man! You’re supposed to call me! What’s a matter with you?
Huh? You don’t like me no more?
You tell Mark you’re here, but you don’t call your dad?
…
Alright, give your dad a call, bye”}

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna be (bitter, bitter, bitter)
I don’t wanna be (bitter, bitter, bitter)
I don’t wanna be (bitter, bitter, bitter)
I don’t wanna be (bitter), so take it all away

[Andy Mineo]
Uh, anybody know the feeling of rejection? (Yeah)
Feels like you was kicked in your midsection (Yeah)
When you feel like you simply just lost your best friend
Ev’rybody play the game of love, you ride the bench end
You start thinkin she’s chillin with other men
and you gettin jealous, start beefin and harboring harsh resentment
I’m asking Jesus to keep me from bein bitter
Go schemin on Twitter, get mad and post it on my statuses (c’mon!)
Bitterness can make a heart numb, but hope is like a star
You don’t see it shine bright until the dark come (shine bright)
So don’t just scoop the dust, remove the rug
If I got unforgiveness in my heart, then there really ain’t no room for love
Plus it’s stupid cause, I’ve been so forgiven
that if I hold a grudge, I don’t show He’s risen (nah)
But I know my sins removed since Jesus came
With no reason to forgive me but He did so I do the same

Uh, sometimes things just happen in life
that, don’t make any sense
but… bitterness is a choice

[Chorus]

[Andy Mineo]
Yeah, I gotta tread softly, don’t wanna be a hypocrite
Plus I got some bitterness I wanna get up off me
Where should I start? Well, I feel like I’d be sorta frontin
to say, when my father calls that I don’t hit ignore button
It’s prob’ly cause we never kicked it at a younger age
I know when he’s callin but I don’t got his number saved (nah)
I keep dodgin him, but I’m just bein honest
All he wanan do is talk football and how I should play in college
I get bitter, kinda cold like the winter
It’s so hard for me to forgive then I remember that I’m a sinner
If Jesus forgave me and washed away my sins
when, I didn’t deserve it then I could forgive him (yeah)
His power and such amazing love like when Jesus forgave the ones
that pinned Him up on that cross as He was hanging from it
Holy Spirit, teach me to be just like the Son
Remove the roots of bitterness, don’t stop until Your work is done

Uh, yeah…
God, I don’t wanna be bitter
Teach me to forgive, let me see my own sin

[Chorus]
