Ever since i was a child |
|
You always said that i should understand the rules |
|
You take some and give less |
|
Sit high above the rest...don't you |
|
As i ask a simple question |
|
Cuts me off with his reply |
|
He's been practicing for decades |
|
Now he thinks i have the time |
|
He flows in and out of riddles |
|
Looking me straight in the eye |
|
But it seems like something's missing |
|
From the days when he was more my size |
|
Chorus: |
|
Ten years older and i've finally found my pride |
|
This old man comes rolling home to die |
|
Old feelings make it hard to decide |
|
Just what it means to me |
|
Everything exists 'tween black and white |
|
You can twist and distort the most blatant of lies |
|
Or just offer up solutions |
|
Practiced only in your mind |
