morgan madden – the measure of a man كلمات اغاني
what is the measure of a man?
is it dollars and cents? complexity of plan?
fancy cars, gold chains, and maybe a tan?
we don’t have an answer to this question, but
i hope that it’s deeper than wealth or complexion
depending on who you ask, it’s a matter of perception
i see trees of green and red roses too
just the same as as louis armstrong’s eyes do
or did anyways, but in his soul felt the blues
it’s similar to me and where i stand
so vastly different now than what i had once planned
dreams so great, aspirations so grand
i felt i could change the world with a snap of my fingers
is it any wonder that some of that feeling still lingers?
it pains me like a nest of wasps using their stingers
just do you i’m reminded on a daily basis
do what’s in your heart if you want to be the greatest
but daily i’m torn between what’s highest and what’s basest
it’s a daily battle that often has a different victor
effects on my mind like drinking too much liquor
sometimes i wish i’d come to a solid conclusion quicker
however, it’s not the destination, but rather the journey
that leaves me so eager, wanting, no burning
for something, anything that keeps my wheel turning
progress, regress like pacino says “life is a game of inches.”
we decide whether to be bound by or freed of life’s cinches
to soak it all up drop by drop or in binges
i guess in the end, that’s what matters
in this measuring stick of life that never ever flatters
anyone or anything of any particular pattern
take the hits, roll with the punches as best you can because
at the end of the day, only one thing will stand
will it be you? if it is, congratulations, you’ve measured up as a man
