Take The Best

My heart is beating fast
Decades are in my past
I’m a little wind blown
Feeling Like there’s miles to go
Childhood memories
Keep on haunting me
Swaying like a willow tree
One more drink and I’ll be free

The heavy price of outlaw living
Helped define the man I am, who I am
Damn the path of least resistance
If life don’t get the best of me
I’ll take the best from it

Sunshine in the rain
I **** with the pain
I’m hoping that sincerity
Will hide the darker side of me
I’m lit up like a flame
Speeding like a train
Resolute but such a mess
At this pace I’m bound to wreck

The heavy price of outlaw living
Helped define the man I am, who I am
Damn the path of least resistance
If life don’t get the best of me
I’ll take the best from it

I’ve paid the price for outlaw living
Helped define the man I am, that’s who I am
Damn the path of least resistance
If life don’t get the best of me
I hope life don’t get the best of me before I take the best from it
