Lyrics
“Polite don’t pay bills… and mercy don’t pour whiskey.”
They said play fair, I said play smart, They talk love, I talk art. Every deal got heat and vice, And life’s too short to be nice.
Life’s too short to be nice, You lose your edge, you pay the price. Keep your smile but guard your throat, The sweetest words still cut the most.
I bought peace, it came in pain, Traded halos for the rain. Soft hands don’t grip steel right, So I learned to hold the night.
Don’t confuse calm for grace, I just pick the time and place. ‘Cause nice men fade, their stories die — But the mean ones never say goodbye.
Life’s too short to be nice, I toast to scars and sacrifice. Keep your prayers, I’ll keep my vice — And live just once, but twice as wise.
“Be kind if you can… But don’t bet on it.”
