Ain'T Gonna Figure It Yet

I'm brave, but I'm shaking
I'm near but yet I'm far
I don't believe in civilization
But yet I still drive a car
I'm crippled but I'm walking
I'm freed yet I'm barred
I don't believe in hard work
But still I have a farm

But look what it all comes down to
Ain't gonna figure it yet
'Till you have one hand full of ashes
And the other hand is putting your soul to rest

I'm broke but I'm still spending
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm a sinner yet I'm an angel
I'm leading, but I'm behind
I'm dumb but I'm talking
I'm seeing yet I'm blind
I'm dull but I'm still shinning
I'm alive, but I can die

But look what it all comes down to
Ain't gonna figure it yet
'Till you have one hand full of ashes
And the other hand is putting your soul to rest

I ain't hungry but, but I'm dining
I hate liquor but I'm drinking wine
I'm puzzled to be crowned king
I'm the law but I do crime
I'm cool, but I'm vicious
I'm a fool, but I'm wise
I'm a politician but I'm not voting
I guess this is the end of my line

Oh, look what it all comes down to
You ain't gonna figure it yet
'Till you have one hand full of ashes
And the other hand is putting your soul to rest

Oh, look what it all comes down to
You ain't gonna figure it yet
'Till you have one hand full of ashes
And the other hand is putting your soul to rest

I'm sad, but I'm happy
And I'm not gonna lose my mind
It's late but it's so early
And I wonder what's the time

Oh, look what it all comes down to
You ain't gonna figure it yet
'Till you have one hand full of ashes
And the other hand is putting your soul to rest

Oh, look what it all comes down to
You ain't gonna figure it yet
'Till you have one hand full of ashes
And the other hand is putting your soul to rest
