Honor And Integrity lyrics
Song information
Artist: Staple Album: Of Truth And Reconciliation
Lyrics
I've said all my "hail mary's" and I've recited all the right prayers I've done a lot in the name of god to gain this solace from your stares So break bread as I take unholy communion once more As righteous as filthy rags bleeding on the floor I'm sitting ripe, sitting fresh in my mire Behold the poison untold I've tried to show the world just how great a man can be But this great man I've charaded is the farthest thing from me The man that I've shown is a man I don't know
So shall it be: sown lies shall reap Honor has died with integrity
What can I say? That I've lived what I've told? They bought me, but I hate the manner through which I was sold I know exactly what to do, I know exactly what to say, I believe every word It's just so hard to obey: trojan horse lies filled with big butterflies and they bought me They took the bate Hook, line and false, flaky, dimple-creased smile Sit back and enjoy the show! I'll have you hooked too, in just a little while
So shall it be: sown lies shall reap Honor has died with integrity
I've lived all these lies No more compromising I know what to do I know what to say I believe every word; it's just so hard to obey! I know what I've created - this mess that shadows me - it leaves my concious tainted! I want authenticity, integrity Jesus, forgive me
So shall it be: sown lies shall reap Honor has died with integrity My honor has died with my integrity
