How to Be Righteous |
| Don’t judge me, |
| I will judge myself. |
| I will lie in my bed at night |
| Wide awake or asleep. |
| I will feel pain |
| When I know I have given it. |
| Everything I put out to the world |
| I know comes back to me. |
| But when angels hear the devils callin' |
| And my vision’s unclear I got no sense at all |
| I’m just hoping I will obey my conscience |
| I want to learn |
| How to be righteous… |
| I saw it on a TV show |
| I bought the book you know |
| Paid attention when I thought |
| The teacher was talking to me |
| But it’s not easy no |
| To get over, let it go |
| All these feelings that are burning |
| And building up inside of me |
| But when angels hear the devils callin' |
| And my vision’s unclear I got no sense at all |
| I’m just hoping I will obey my conscience |
| I want to learn |
| How to be righteous… |
| So I’ll look at all I have and I will claim it. |
| Won’t let anybody else ever tell me who I should be. |
| I’ll look in the mirror and gaze in my children’s eyes, |
| And I will not give a damn about |
| What anybody else thinks of me. |
| And when questions come, I will answer right. |
| Be true to myself, need be put up a fight. |
| Will not heed to greed, I will obey my conscience. |
| I want to learn, |
| I need to learn, |
| How to be righteous… |
| So when angels hear the devils callin' |
| And my vision’s unclear I got no sense at all |
| I’m just hoping I will obey my conscience. |
| I want to learn, |
| I need to learn, |
