Salesman...
The Witness
I’ve got more than what you’re selling
A different flavor for sure...
I becken no other with strict interpretations
Of man made written law
I’ve got my tether straight and true
A different twist in twine for sure
I preach no prejudice or damnation
Of man made written law
I’ve got the knowledge that you might object to
A different outlook of brimstone aflame
I will not curse you behind your back, burdened
Of man made written law
I’ve got my own confidence to say
A different day awaits you for sure...
I teach respect and honor, not fear
Of man made written law
I’ve got a good door and some sense too -
A different way to deal with how
I choose to not confront the steps you teach
Of man made written law
