Shy Carter – The Rest of Us Lyrics

Verse
There are those of us who get it right on the very first try
There are those of us who stop buying and selling the same old lies
People ask them how they’re doing, they say good and it’s true
Oh and they sleep just like a baby the whole night through

Chorus
Then there’s the rest of us
Burning everything they touch
Who keep doing things, ruin things, losing things, and screwing things up
Then there’s the rest of us
Using love as a weapon
Confusing hell for heaven
Praying grace will be enough
Oh thank God for people like you who never give up
Oh on the rest of us

Verse
There are those of us got them recovery stories
Who somehow found a way to get out of the way of themselves
And there are those who never miss a damn Sunday morning
Who somewhere along the way they learned how to ask for help

Chorus
And then there’s the rest of us
Burning everything they touch
Just keep doing things, ruin things, losing things, and screwing things up
Then there’s the rest of us
Using love as a weapon
Confusing hell for heaven
Praying grace will be enough
Oh thank God for people like you who never give up
Oh on the rest of us

Bridge
You always showed me good love
You always gave me good love
You always had me on time
Always, always online
No you never gave up
No you never gave up

Chorus
On the rest of us
Burning everything they touch
Who keep doing things, ruin things, losing things, and just screwing things up
For the rest of us
Using love as a weapon
Confusing hell for heaven
Praying grace will be enough
Oh thank God for people like you who never give up
Oh I wanna thank God for somebody like you who never gave up
Oh on the rest of us


Song Meaning & Review

In this world, it’s hard to believe that life is fair. Shy Carter released a new inspirational song entitled “The Rest Of Us.” It talks about life and how people live differently.

The song’s first line says that some people conquer the challenges on their first try, while the others get stuck with the same mistakes.

Some people also managed to make their lives better, while others remained in the same dire situation. But then there are those people who help those who need it.

No matter what they are going through, they don’t hesitate to help. It might be hard for those unfortunate people to believe that life is fair, but there will always be someone to give hope. There will be someone who will never give up on giving others hope.
