Righteous Life |
I rode on your highways |
Played cards with some of your gods |
Kicked a long stone at sunset |
Watched the ways you smile and nod |
You smile and nod |
It’s a righteous life we’re leading friends |
Heavy dues, pay the fee |
But no one else notices |
Destiny except the free, except the free |
You can tell it in a smile sometimes |
Arrogance, haughty, and cruel |
Smiling at some stranger |
Like a tarot deck card fool |
It’s a righteous life we’re leading friends |
Heavy dues, pay the fee |
But no one else notices |
Destiny except the free, except the free |
Stories that they’re weaving now |
Are part fiction, sometimes ruse |
You can tell where the real part ends |
And it’s time to ask for truth, to ask for truth |
To ask for truth |
It’s a righteous life we’re leading friends |
Heavy dues, pay the fees |
But no one else notices |
Destiny except the free, except the free |
