[Verse 1]
You can twist every word till it don't sound right
Paint me black in the broad daylight
Tell your stories, make your rounds
Small-town judges love a crowd
I could hand you truth in both my hands
And you'd still turn it to smoke and sand
Some folks ain't up for what's real
They just want somethin they can sell
[Pre-Chorus]
And I learned real quick where I stand
You can't wake a fool who likes the dark they're in
[Chorus]
And it ain't my job
To make you see what you don't want found
You can pick your side
You can draw your line
Believe the lie if that's enough
And if truth can't reach ya where you're at
Then baby just stay like that
I won't carry weight that ain't mine
It ain't my job
[Verse 2]
Funny how the guilty always have an excuse
Pointing fingers to justify their abuse
If standing tall means I'm the bad guy now
I'll wear the crown and take a bow
'Cause loyalty ain't begging please
And peace ain't bought on broken knees
If you'd rather run with wolves than face the truth,
Don't think I'll be waiting around for you
[Pre-Chorus]
No, I don't need anybody's grace
The right ones know me without a case
[Chorus]
And it ain't my job
To make you see what you don't want found
You can pick your side
You can draw your line
Believe the lie if that's enough
And if truth can't reach ya where you're at
Then baby just stay like that
I won't carry weight that ain't mine
It ain't my job
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Go on and hate me from the cheap seats
Talk your hell and swear it's gospel
I won't waste my peace tryna prove you wrong,
I got better things to spend my backbone on
[Final Chorus]
It ain't my job
To pull the blinders from your eyes
Or waste one breath defending mine
You can choose the noise
While I stand in the truth
Yeah, that part's up to you
Go on, believe I'm the villain if it helps
Honey, you ain't dragging me back to hell
No, it ain't my job
