Lyrics
Grew up drinkin' beer on the dock
Swimmin' in the river as the sun dropped
Didn't care much 'bout the world out there
Fell in love with a girl, life was fair
Climbed trees, bled into the red clay dirt
Straw in my teeth, pretendin' it hurt
Got a little too high watchin' stars collide
But we trusted each other, felt so alive
Yeah, I'm too complex to wear your label
Don't call me red or blue, I ain't that stable
My God is love, this Earth's my home
Jesus was radical, never alone
With a six-pack and the sun goin' down
We felt rich in a small-town crown
You can't box me in or shut me upโ
I'm too complex, and I've had enough
The world kept turnin', and we lost our way
Traded soul for gold, tried to make it pay
Chased cheap things made far away
While our neighbors' hands just slipped away
Whiskey fights turned to silent nights
We forgot how to hug after losin' sight
Of the love that built this hometown pride
And now we're all just tryin' to survive
Yeah, I'm too complex to wear your label
Don't call me red or blue, I ain't that stable
My God is love, this Earth's my home
Jesus was radical, never alone
With a six-pack and the sun goin' down
We felt rich in a small-town crown
You can't box me in or shut me upโ
I'm too complex, and I've had enough
I ain't got a gun, but I got a fire
A pen, my mind, and a heart that aspires
Violence is weak, but I feel it too
Was never taught how to talk things through
I'm learnin' slow, but I'm standin' tall
Respectin' women, breakin' that wall
Not a proud boy, I'm a proud man
Tryin' to love right, do what I can
Yeah, I'm too complex to wear your label
Don't call me red or blue, I ain't that stable
My God is love, this Earth's my home
Jesus was radical, never alone
With a six-pack and the sun goin' down
We still got time to turn it around
You can't box me in or shut me upโ
I'm too complex, and I've had enough
We may be simple, but we're wakin' up
Givin' this world a deeper kind of love
From the backroads to the far-off lands
I'm a radical cowboy, pen in hand
