Cause and Effect
Navigating Life's Duality: Cause and Effect Unveiled
Lyrics
My old man
Reflecting on the speaker's father
He said to me
Quoting the father's words to the speaker
He said
Indicating a shift to the father's advice
Son
Father addressing the speaker
There are those
Referring to people who are manipulated
That get bought
Being controlled or influenced
And those
Exercising control or influence
That do the buying
Contrasting those who are manipulated and manipulators
Well enough
Expressing a lack of success in buying or selling
We never did
Shared inability to find common ground
See eye to eye
Highlighting a perpetual disagreement
And I always wished
Expressing a desire for understanding
That good ol' boy
Referring to the father
Could cound past two
Desiring a higher level of intellect or awareness
Love it or leave it
Embracing or rejecting a situation
Black or white
Contrasting perspectives or choices
That's the way it is
Stating the way things are
Fundamental
Emphasizing essential principles
Absolute
Expressing certainty or absoluteness
I wish I
Expressing a wish or desire
Could be as clever
Desiring intelligence or wit
Never did
Reiterating a lack of understanding or agreement
Buy that bill of goods
Rejecting a deceptive or misleading idea
