	Story Behind the Song This song was recorded in the little studio at ASCAP in Nashville. I credit the line "God quota" to Jessie Robertson, another really good songwriter, for the phrase via a phone conversation we had. Thanks to the girl in the wedding dress and duck-taped combat boots. Lyrics Futile, brutal words in everything you say. Just tell me have you met your “God quota” today? You claim justification in idioms and clich�s. What would this world be like if you had nothing to say? Chorus I’m a little weary of your self-righteous stance. When legalism meats cynicism, I don’t stand a chance. Selfish ambition makes for an ugly, ugly man. And there’s nothing uglier than a self-righteous stance. Have I offended you? Good, I hope I have. Made you feel uncomfortable, think about your stance? Your false-hearted benevolence is like too much sugar on my soul. It weeps and cries for insulin, just before raging out of control. Repeat Chorus Sometimes I get so caught up in my own words, That I exalt myself, in such uncertain terms. The day it becomes not about searching, but about speaking eloquently. I can’t deny myself what the mirror clearly sees. Repeat Chorus 1 Corinthians 1:17
