[Verse 1] You keep the clean white shirt for Sunday I keep the list of things I owe You say a kind word at the doorway Then count the favors as we go I want the room to like my laughter I want to leave with my hands clean But every time I choose the easy Somebody else pays what I mean [Pre-Chorus] If goodness asks me to go hungry Who gets to call that living well? If happiness is built on someone Tell me what the ledger tells [Chorus] I want a life that feels like mine And hands that never hide the cost Can I be glad and still be good When every gain is someone’s loss? I won’t call hunger holy I won’t call comfort innocence I’m standing where the two roads meet And choosing with my whole defense [Verse 2] You gave your coat to the man outside Then told the room before you left I watched you make a small good deed And turn it into proof of self I know that pose; I wear it often A generous smile, a private score I want to help because you’re hurting Not because I’ll be praised for more [Pre-Chorus] If goodness asks me to go hungry Who gets to call that living well? If happiness is built on someone Tell me what the ledger tells [Chorus] I want a life that feels like mine And hands that never hide the cost Can I be glad and still be good When every gain is someone’s loss? I won’t call hunger holy I won’t call comfort innocence I’m standing where the two roads meet And choosing with my whole defense [Bridge] Maybe the answer isn’t spotless Maybe it’s staying in the room Sharing the bread, naming the damage Making space for someone new No halo, no clean absolution Just a promise I can keep: I’ll ask who pays for my good fortune Before I let myself sleep [Final Chorus] I want a life that feels like mine And hands that never hide the cost Can I be glad and still be good And face the ones my choices crossed? I won’t call hunger holy I won’t call comfort innocence I’ll take the joy that leaves room for you And meet the cost with consequence [Outro] Not pure, not spared, not standing clear Just choosing who I’m choosing here
