Nothing Is Free Except Life

Nothing Is Free Except Life
Freak drivers set out on a voyage
Dope in the back seat, bottom of the suitcase
Hitchhikers flash their dusty cardboards signs
As a plea for a ride

Panhandling, I'm broker than the rules
But I've got kind eyes that I can put to use
I'll trade you a poem for a bite of food cuz
Nothing is free except life itself no
Nothing is free except life

And I'll be honest I've lied to a cop
I've lemon-teked shrooms at the back of a bus stop
I stole a record using a pizza box cuz
Nothing is free except life itself no
Nothing is free except life

Makeshift trench coat carrying my coffee beans
I got a few more tricks up my sleeve
Don't steal from a sister, steal from the pigs cuz
Nothing is free except life itself no
Nothing is free except life

Home is wherever I'll sleep tonight
Empathy is a vitamin you need to survive
Love is my religion and peace is my wife and
Nothing is free except life

A barefoot flowerchild with a broken van
On an aimless journey, a lonely speck of sand
Don't hate your brother, stick it to the man cuz
Nothing is free except life itself no
Nothing is free except life

I trust the kindness of strangers
But I'm not naïve
I know wickedness is still lurking
But if one single heart that is wounded in hatred
Could find solace in an out of tune chord
And atone to his wrong doings
Than I'd know that it was worth it, every minute of it

Steal this song and sing it to your enemies
Quench your thirst with the fruit of the serpent's tree
Break down empires, turn them to communities
Nothing is free except life itself no
Nothing is free except life

Keep your moral compass closer than your wallet
Search your soul if you think you forgot it
The future is now, in fact, it already started
Nothing is free except life itself no
Nothing is free except life
Nothing is free except life itself no
Nothing is free except life
