Deft Color - Hi-Road Lyrics

Wasn't looking for the high road
I was looking for my own
The path I took was made of pride and bones
Yeah
Wasn't looking for the high road
I was looking for my own
The path I made was mine and mine alone
Yeah

I was okie doke
In the fire pit
I'd show my foes
I could find my wits
Went toe to toe
We were throwing mitts
Going blow for blow
I was over it
Man I was slow
Slow
Slow
Slow
Slower than a tortoise is
Cold and stiff
The rigor mortis kid
Yeah I could throw my fists
But had an overload of no control
I'd hold the ropes and hope to live
Uh

Wasn't looking for the high road
I was looking for my own
For my own
The path I took was made of pride and bones
Yeah
Wasn't looking for the high road
I was looking for my own
Wasn't looking for my own
The path I made was mine and mine alone
Yeah

See the church prays for the likes of me
And there've been days that I've peaked
But the hurt is aching inside of me
Cause I turned away from my peace
Yeah
And everything that I feel
I burned down that bridge
To advocate for my thrill
To blast away from this earth
This earth
Capsulate my meals
Navigate through space and time
And astrogate with my skills
I preferred the route
That I got to know
Now I'm burning out
Went from hot to cold
The word is out
Man I lost the wheel

I wasn't looking for the high road
I was looking for my own
I wasn't looking for my own
The path I took was made of pride and bones
Yeah
I wasn't looking for the high road
I was looking for my own
I wasn't looking for my own
The path I made was mine and mine alone
Yeah
