(Verse 1)
I never meant for things to go this way
But I guess life don't always turn out the way you think
I got so caught up in living for myself
I didn't realize I was hurting those I love
(Chorus)
So now I'm going to try to be a good man
Do the right things and make you proud again
I know I messed up but I swear I'll change
I want to be a good man, I'll make that change
(Verse 2)
I've been selfish, thoughtless, immature
But I'm tired of being that way, it's not me anymore
I want to be someone you can count on
You can lean on, someone you can trust
(Chorus)
So now I'm going to try to be a good man
Do the right things and make you proud again
I know I messed up, but I swear I'll change
I want to be a good man, I swear I will
(Bridge)
I know it won't be easy, but I'm willing to fight
For the love and trust that you deserve
I'm ready to start fresh and make it right
I'm going to be a good man
(Chorus)
So now I'm going to try to be a good man
Do the right things and make you proud again
I know I messed up, but I swear I'll change
I want to be a good man, I'll make that change
(Outro)
I want to be a good man, I'll make that change
