Midas

Say you call my fate
Like it's simple as a handshake
Would my light fade away
Like all the ones that bite your bait?

Well I know
That just because it glitters doesn't mean it's gold
Yeah I know
That anything worth having wouldn't eat at my soul

We could be living in a golden age
But I ain't taking your handout like you'll lead me to your glory days
I know nothing's really coming for free
And you've got that Midas touch
That comes with a price too much for me

Say you know my type
The kind who suffers from all bark no bite
Don't believe my own hype
Like ones who sit there waiting for the lightning to strike

Well I know
A couple million losses might be taking their toll
But I won't kiss your ring 'cause know I like my control

We could be living in a golden age
But I ain't taking your handout like you'll lead me to your glory days
I know nothing's really coming for free
And you got that Midas touch that come with a price too much for me
Well if I wanted I'd keep playing the game
Or I can wake another morning knowing no one even knows my name
And I ain't paying you to taste my dreams
You got that Midas touch that come with a price too much for me

Play the game, play to win
Yeah play your cards right
You might feel lucky but you're never gonna be as ripe
So find the fun you could be running with the big guns
Feeling so unlucky with the lucky looking shiny ones
Oh boy, yeah, you got nothing to lose
So come be golden standing stoic with the statues
Oh boy, yeah, you got something to prove
You know you'll probably be unhappy with which ever road you choose

We could be living in a golden age
But I ain't taking your handout like you'll lead me to your glory days
I know nothing's really coming for free
And you got that Midas touch that come with a price too much for me
Well if I wanted I'd keep playing the game
Or I can wake another morning knowing no one even knows my name
And I ain't paying you to taste my dreams
You got that Midas touch that come with a price too much for me

Price too much for me
