Fly the Straight-Edge



Fly the Straight-Edge

When you fly the straight-edge you fight yourself
To stand up, get the energy tho’ you feel dead
But love you and don’t slay you
Sing inside and determine that the next minute’s another day

Separate my emotions from my mind and my body
No matter the physicality of reality my mind is untouched
Determination not resignation and a little cocao absinthe
Feel my spirits rise and smile to be alive

Touch my guitar and know her love is unrelenting
Listen to the sound of engines rising, my first ever love, racing
Lyrics that I write, music I join and songs that I sing
Black cloud dissipates and the future is now as always

I am human with happiness, sadness, successes and mistakes
I regret nothing other than the women I could have loved
Not a bad reflection so I ink all on my white skin
I am in another day and Straight-Edge is the pathway
