Man of Conviction Lyrics by Brett Fromson

Man of Conviction

2021

I was a man of conviction back in my boyhood days
When the stories my father told me were true as could be
Now I walk on the cigarette sidewalk
And I drive in the spirit-soaked street
Oh, I was a man of conviction too early
It's been ages and ages, honey
And the ages are rolling on
Since I looked in the eyes of a person and told 'em my dreams
Now my memories are password protected
My old t-shirts are quilt squares, I can't fit in my old jeans
Oh, I was a man of conviction at seventeen
I was a man of conviction if I evеr was a man
Though I seem to remember somе crying and wallowing child
Now I'm older with less of a purpose than the fools daring and wild
Oh, if I was a man of conviction, it's been a while
I was a man of conviction when the future was just a game
And conviction meant swearing, I want it, I promise to be
To be noble and sober and honest
And to sweep the world off of its feet
Oh, when I was a man of conviction, it was easy
I was a man of conviction, who I am now, I don't know
Though I've known enough misers, those faded and sullen and weak
Now it's time to rekindle the yearning of the man I used to be
Yes, I'll be a man of conviction, honey, next we meet
