Wicked World

If I had a law degree
I’d run for the presidency
Kneel before humanity
They’d probably put a bullet in me
And it’s alright
That’s what I say
When they bitch and moan
About the wicked ways of the world
And I look West
And that’s okay
Just a way to get through another dark, cold night
In a wicked world
That gives you nothing
I want to give something
You’ve got a beautiful family
That’s what they always say to me
But when they find out I swing liberally
They want nothing to do with me
It’s a bitter fight
We all want to be right
But everyone got a grudge
And everyone got the answers
It’s such a mess
But there’s a better way
So take my hand
We’ll get through this dark, cold night
Don’t let no wicked world
Steal your light away
I need you to shine
No one said this road is easy
But if you just follow the signs
And don’t fall too far behind
They can’t own your mind
It’s a wicked world
But it getting better all the time
In someone else’s memories
Was I as good as I tried to be
To those who been a friend to me
May that light shine for centuries
It’s okay
When they fight and feud over what it’s all about
I’ll be the light to break your doubt
You’ll find a way
Because the wicked world ain’t gonna knock you down
Ain’t gonna break you down, no
No, not today
