Forgive Them (For They Know Not What They Do) Lyrics

The guy in the mansion who doesn't tip

The food in the market that makes us sick

The girl who cut me in line just like I don't exist

The man who fucked up my mind with his abusive tricks

Society for telling me who I can and cannot be

The people I've supported who never supported me

The ones who just have everything but never worked a day

Each time I feel this feeling, I know I have to say

Forgive them for they know not what they do

We may not like it, so we fight it, but it's a necessary truth

I'm frustrated and I hate it, can you please take it away

I don't claim this, I don't blame them, get me out of this state

Everyone is just doing the best they can

And some of us just weren't dealt the greatest hand

Yeah, I pray that by the end of this life, I can let go of this hell

And by the end of this life, I'd have forgiven myself

Anxiety that follows me all into the night

The neighbors right on top of me who constantly fight

The person that cut me off even though we're at the same red light

The people on the internet spewing hurtful shit

I'm a human with emotions, yeah, those things, they still exist

But each time I pass a judgment, well, I have to bite my lip

If I'll never be perfect, how can I be mad at them

Forgive them for they know not what they do

We may not like it, so we fight it, but it's a necessary truth

I'm frustrated and I hate it, can you please take it away

I don't claim this, I don't blame them, get me out of this state

Everyone is just doing the best they can

And some of us just weren't dealt the greatest hand

Yeah, I pray that by the end of this life, I can let go of this hell

And by the end of this life, I'd have forgiven

Driving down the freeway, just my thoughts among the silence

Know I'm made of love but in my head I'm choosing violence

Ready to give up the fight, end the need to know I'm right

Triggers are a blessing cause they point to what's inside us

Forgive them for they know not what they do

We may not like it, so we fight it, but it's a necessary truth

I'm frustrated and I hate it, can you please take it away

I don't claim this, I don't blame them, get me out of this state

Everyone is just doing the best they can

And some of us just weren't dealt the greatest hand

So, I pray that by the end of this life, I can let go of this hell

And by the end of this life, I'd have forgiven myself
