wade sapp - the boys we were lyrics

[verse 1 + wade sapp]
i stare at old pictures
think about the boys we were
when i could still quote scripture
and he’d partake of the herb
we weren’t pathetic po’ folks
just a faded six of spades
society was the cold spokes
that smacked us in the face
said stay in place
[verse 2 + wade sapp]
in the cobwebs of my abused brain, it was north caroline
the last time that i saw his face ‘fore he p+ssed away his prime
no matter how i try to fight he drops into my dreams
the nightmare veers towards violеnce
and i’m awakened by thе scenes
and to think

[chorus + wade sapp]
it was a good day
i almost didn’t feel pain
i almost didn’t hear a train
i almost didn’t let it rain
i almost thought that i was sane
i almost thought that this could change
i almost thought it was a dream
god it was a good day

[verse 3 + wade sapp, colter wall, ]
he was balanced on a bar stool
slammin’ xanax down with beer
struggling not to argue
with the demon in his ear
that friend told him with a crooked grin

you just give me a hand you’ll make eight grand
but my brother just declined
for a time
[verse 4 + wade sapp]
so like a rattlesnake life bends and shakes
and fate ain’t always kind
when your mouth is filled with fatal fangs
and there’s poison in your mind
so they slithered inside and shots were fired
in the roof and in the floor
they got the loot and moved their boots
straight through the jailhouse door
and what’s more

[chorus + wade sapp, ]
god it was a good day

john, it was a good day
now it ain’t

[outro + wade sapp]
so i stare at old pictures think about the men we’ll be
i bust open these blisters and pray for his release
