High Road

(album: Rayality - 2011)

My mama is an angel
No doubt she's gonna get her wings
You'd think after all these years
That might've rubbed off on me
I've been the inspiration
For a thousand late night prayers
I hate to think she's thinking
That she went wrong somewhere

'Cause the high road ain't never been my road
I drink, I smoke
I burn the beer joints down
Yeah, and I know where my road goes
I need to find a side road
Pull off and turn around

I saw a sign beside the Church the other today
It said what would Jesus do?
I took it in for a minute
Thought hell I ain't got a clue
I know the highway to redemption
Doesn't run through where I've been
I know if there's a Heaven
Right now I've got a devil's chance of getting in

'Cause the high road ain't never been my road
I drink, I smoke
I burn the beer joints down
Yeah, and I know where my road goes
I need to find a side road
Pull off and turn around

Yeah the high road
It ain't never been my road
My cold, black soul
It's seeking refuge now
And I don't wanna go
Where I know my road goes
I need to find a side road
Pull off and turn around

Yeah, I wanna turn it all around

Listen to the angels sing

Make a joyful noise
