Discernment

All i know is what i see, and what i take inside my head,

I live no one's life, and no one lives through me.

And i won't hide behind a friend, so what you see is what you get,

I wear my skin inside out, but that's me.

I have this ability to read you like a book,

See through you, and see things for what they are,

And i scratch myself like everybody else, when no one is around,

Only human i believe there is a god...

And i look out to all the faces, and for every 1 there's 2 of me,

Their eyes are like a mirror of me,

And i got inside your head for a brief little moment,

And you saw through my eyes and shared my views,

I read you like a book.

Two things i will not let anybody say to me,

I'm not stupid, and i'm not white trash,

And i've been called a honkey to my face,

Well, if i am i'm proud,

'cuz i don't have a problem with your skin

Maybe, but the second, greatest feeling on the earth,

Is when i stand up on this stage,

And all my thoughts are channeled, through this microphone,

For once my voice is heard and,

You listen...

I read like a book,

Yeah i read you like a book...
