War of Art Songtext
von Courtney Patton

I′ve argued with the achin'
But your momma′s heart is breakin'
And frankly I've grown weary of this pace
You know that I love you
I′d never put no one above you
But I′ve got dreams I've gotta chase

I′ve heard it all before:
"Singin' to a whiskey-soaked dance floor
"Ain′t no job for a mother and a wife"
So I try to do things right
But at what cost is it worth the fight?
I just couldn't let that war take my life


You′ll learn as you get older
From baby to beholder
Just how your momma soared above the shame
I'll be the bigger person
Despite one-sided cursin'
That I′m the only one to blame

I′ve heard it all before:
"Singin' to a whiskey-soaked dance floor
"Ain′t no job for a mother and a wife"
So I try to do things right
But at what cost is it worth the fight?
I just couldn't let that war take my life

So I′m gonna go against what was planned
I know you may not understand
But I'd rather do it now than rust or rot
My passion is a cancer
And I can′t cure it or find the answer
'Til I go and give it all I've got
So I′m gonna go and give it all I′ve got
