New Tricks ft. Steve Ray Ladson Lyrics

Can't teach an old dog new tricks

That sayin' don't mean shit

Met a man who's 86

He learnin' how to pray

He ready to forgive

Said he carried this weight around

Got so heavy, thought he'd take it with him Six feet down

Then he spoke to a holy one

Who said, I see you, son

And your work ain't done, no

What if I told you

It was all inside your hands

And it's not too late, it's not too late, no

What if I told you

If you're alive, you still have time

To put down your pride and pick up your purpose

Your story ain't finished

You can teach an old dog new tricks

You can teach an old dog new tricks

Pick a major, go to college, get a nine to five

Get addicted to a paycheck, push your dreams aside

Feels like everybody's tellin' us to compromise

Are we hypnotized, sleepin' through our lives

I'm here to level up

I'm a work in progress, I'm a work of love

I'ma keep on changin' till my time is up

I'ma look at aging like a half-filled cup

What if I told you

It was all inside your hands

And it's not too late, it's not too late, no

What if I told you

If you're alive, you still have time

To put down your pride and pick up your purpose

Your story ain't finished

You can teach an old dog new tricks

Ba-da-da-da-da-di

You can teach an old dog new tricks

You can teach an old dog new tricks
