Justify

I met a man in New Orleans
Wore a half suit with dark blue jeans
Kicked his heels together
Winked at me real nice

I saw him from a mile away
But in my state of mind
I let him make his play
"Hey boy, have you seen the other side?"

Yeah, in this man I saw the devil's hand
So I looked at him man to man
Said "This time it's gonna be a fight."

I do not have to justify the way I live my life
I do not have to justify the reason I'm alive

No more
No more

I saw her from across the room
With diamond eyes she's heaven's jewel
Dropped two aces, smiled, and threw my cards back

Yeah, I been that man who lives deceit
Surrounds himself with worldly things
So let me tell you a story, let me feed it to you

We fly around like we were Superman
Live in another trance, a different way to dance
With dark romance you get another chance
To do the dirty dance without a consequence

I do not have to justify the way I live my life
I do not have to justify the reason I'm alive
I do not have to justify the way I live my life

So lemme change the timbre of the section
Add a little booze to ice
I guess you probably noticed
I been living a double life

So fly around like you were Superman
Given another chance, a different way to dance
With true romance you get another chance
To tell your dirty darkest secrets

We fly around like we were Superman
Live in another trance, a different way to dance
With dark romance you get another chance
To do the dirty dance without consequence

I do not have to justify the way I live my life
I do not have to justify the reason I'm alive

No more
No more
No more...

It's just not me
Not me
Not me

I'm just
I'm just like you
