As A Rule
Life's Rulebook Unveiled: A Maverick's Journey Through ChaosLyrics
Well I know I'm not the only one that lives like this
Recognizing that others share a similar lifestyle
Smoke'n shit and drinkin' piss
Engaging in substance use (smoking and drinking)
Showin' up with a bag of roaches
Arriving with drug remnants
A pack wild dogs in the motor coach
Having a rowdy group in a vehicle
I aim to plan for the worst and hope to miss
Preparing for the worst while hoping for the best
And I reckon there ain't a lot of folks
Feeling unique in perspective
That view the world the way I do
Believing few share the same worldview
You oughta treat me just like I treat you
Advocating for reciprocal treatment
Sow what you reap and reap what you sow
Emphasizing consequences matching actions
Drive the speed limit in Ohio
Following rules, even in mundane situations
And if you're gonna start somethin' see it through
Urging commitment to initiated tasks
I fly under the radar
Staying unnoticed
Every time I hit the highway
Travelling incognito on highways
And I love to see the country flyin' by
Enjoying the scenery while on the move
The clouds look purple but I don't see rain
Observing unusual sights without perceiving trouble
Maybe that acid ate a hole in my brain
Speculating on altered perception due to past drug use
But I'd like to think I'm just high
Considering altered mental state due to intoxication
Now when I come to town
Requesting inclusion upon arrival
Set a place for me
Seeking hospitality for oneself and friends
The boys and me are thirsty for good times
Desiring enjoyable moments with companions
So bring out all your party favors
Asking for various entertainment items for the gathering
Old time heads and candy ravers
Mentioning different types of attendees
Ima goin' up if you throw down a line
Expressing readiness to elevate the mood
You don't know me
Highlighting unfamiliarity with the individual
You don't know what I've been through
Challenging understanding of personal experiences
You ain't walked a mile in these boots
Asserting others haven’t lived through similar situations
I miss cigarettes every which way
Longing for past habits in different ways
And the lord knows I miss dope each day
Expressing a persistent yearning for drugs
But I'm the one to blame as a rule
Accepting personal responsibility for actions
