brett fromson - man of conviction lyrics

Loading...

i was a man of conviction back in my boyhood days
when the stories my father told me were true as could be
now i walk on the cigarette sidewalk
and i drive in the spirit+soaked street
oh, i was a man of conviction too early

it’s been ages and ages, honey
and the ages are rolling on
since i looked in the eyes of a person and told ’em my dreams
now my memories are password protected
my old t+shirts are quilt squares, i can’t fit in my old jeans
oh, i was a man of conviction at seventeen

i was a man of conviction if i evеr was a man
though i seem to remember somе crying and wallowing child
now i’m older with less of a purpose than the fools daring and wild
oh, if i was a man of conviction, it’s been a while

i was a man of conviction when the future was just a game
and conviction meant swearing, i want it, i promise to be
to be n0ble and sober and honest
and to sweep the world off of its feet
oh, when i was a man of conviction, it was easy

i was a man of conviction, who i am now, i don’t know
though i’ve known enough misers, those faded and sullen and weak
now it’s time to rekindle the yearning of the man i used to be
yes, i’ll be a man of conviction, honey, next we meet
