Lyrics
[Intro]
Midnight eyes
On a bright clear day
They smile like friends
But they look away
[Verse 1]
Saw a good man
Talking in two tongues
One voice gentle
One loading a gun
Sunday suit
With a Saturday stare
Something hitchhiked home
Riding on his prayer
They whisper, “Come on
Just give us the wheel”
Offer you the world
For the price of what’s real
I felt that chill
Crawling up my back
Like fingers on my spine
Tryna turn me black
[Chorus]
But righteousness takes it back
When the shadows close in, I don’t crack
I speak truth, they shake and scatter
They don’t own this soul, don’t matter
Yeah, righteousness takes it back
Every time they attack, I attack
Light on my side when the sky turns black
(Oh) righteousness takes it, takes it back
[Verse 2]
Little brown bottle
By the bedside lamp
He said, “Just one sip
Keeps the wolves off the camp”
But the more he drank
The more the wolves fed
Till his own reflection
Looked better off dead
[Rap Break]
I seen ‘em jump body to body like thieves in the dark
Hide behind charm, then they hollow your heart
Smile in your face, slip doubt in your ear
Say “nobody loves you, so live off your fear”
Nah
I drag ‘em out the corner with a name I know
They twitch, they hiss, but they gotta let go
I don’t run, I stand, let ‘em crash like waves
‘Cause a borrowed little power can’t hold these graves
[Chorus]
Yeah, righteousness takes it back
When the shadows close in, I don’t crack
I speak truth, they shake and scatter
They don’t own this soul, don’t matter
Yeah, righteousness takes it back
Every time they attack, I attack
Light on my side when the sky turns black
(hey!) righteousness takes it, takes it back
[Bridge]
They claw at my mind
But my heart stays signed
Not your house
Not your throne
You can haunt these halls
But you can’t move in
Every locked-up door
Got a key called “win”
[Chorus]
Righteousness takes it back
When the shadows close in, I don’t crack
I speak truth, they shake and scatter
They don’t own this soul, don’t matter
Yeah, righteousness takes it back
Every time they attack, I attack
Light on my side when the sky turns black
Righteousness takes it, takes it back
[Outro]
Walk through the valley
But I don’t walk alone
They can ride my shoulders
They can’t claim this throne (oh yeah)
Righteous
Takes it back
