James Burton - Vindication lyrics

[Verse 1] Look around on your hi-wire Don't look down - it's a long way to fall Suicide, the brink of extinct It's over now The tables have turned on life's little game No longer the pawns, you're feeling the strain For we are all kings with merit it brings As we rise to the top once again [Chorus] As you look to the heavens Wondering where you went wrong Seeing, not always believing The gavel of life coming down [Verse 2] Traces of the past Flash before your eyes Hurdle the bodies that fed you The narcissist hungers again Fear and control your battleground Your truth under a shroud A forced stranglehold - just do what you're told As we rise to the top once again [Chorus] [Bridge] Sometimes a man's word is all that he's got And sometimes just only a name No more suffocation - my true vindication Ascending from all the remains [Chorus] As you look to the heavens Wondering where you went wrong This is vindication
