I'm Civilized Now

Its hard to scrabble together words  
Its like trying to capture feelings  
When dry fitting stones  
   
I remember cold mornings  
Long draws on cigarettes  
Last nights beer still clouding my mind  
   
Ain't much different now  
Just a helluva lot hotter  
And I don't smoke  
   
Don't drink boilermakers either  
Let alone straight whiskey or beer  
But I'm still pissed  
   
And its still cloudy  
   
I shoulda bought a Harley and rode west years ago  
Been years since I rode  
Longer since I've been west  
   
I think the suns done set on that  
   
If its gonna be dark might as well strike a match  
Light a fuse  
And burn a candle at both ends  
   
Time to find myself  
The one I put away to be civilized  
I'm bout fed up with this woke, candy ass, PC shit  
   
Time to redefine what's mine  
Clarify what it means to be on my fightin' side  
Had my fill of fair weather friends and good time buddies  
   
Find a woman who wants to be a woman  
Down to earth and has some grit  
Knows how to make her man feel like a man  
   
Country strong  
   
Can't change the world but I can change mine  
Live a life worth living  
'stead of a long slow die  
   
Its about time
