What’s Past is Prologue Free Throw

[Verse 1]
That day I watched as they threw down some seed
In the dirt
Around the porch where I always sit and write about what hurts
It seems like some kind of sign, but I shrugged it off
With nothing learned

[Chorus]
I always look at things at such a surface level
Although I'm buried in a deeper hole
Always wonder why they’re staring at the shovel
Not digging to save a life they all seem to love

[Verse 2]
Then two weeks later
The blades of grass were starting to appear
And when I noticed
I felt that inner voice whisper in my ear
"You need to change"

[Chorus]
"You always look at things at such a surface level
Although you're buried in a deeper hole
Always wonder why they're staring at the shovel
When you’re the one that didn't leave a note
You don't need to stay the same
Have to work for your own change
Get to digging, let's get living, we can fix this fucking thing"
I always look at things at such a surface level
And at some point I had completely spun out of control
