Unbent and Bitter

from Handcuff County by Ryan M. Brewer

/

lyrics

I had a dream I was indicted, so “invited” is not the right word there.
I had to go before the Congress, where I’d say “On this book, I swear... To tell that bitter truth and not bend it like the rules the way you do.”
I said “In truth I can’t be bothered with the kind of thoughts that foster a will to lie. So if you’re worried ‘bout dishonesty, well, then honestly - you’ve got the wrong guy!” I’ll tell that bitter truth and not bend it like the rules the way you do.
I’ll tell that bitter truth, and not bend it like the rules because...
I don’t know which way I would spin it.
I can’t see shit unless I’m in it.
I’ll build you your case, just give me the mic and get out of my way! Here’s that bitter truth... all punched up and pretty - just for you!
