Fun side note: I recorded this in one take at my home in St. Petersburg, FL using one microphone and one guitar track on an old Fostex VF08 that I still have tucked away somewhere. My daughter came home from school, 1st or 2nd grade, with a picture she had drawn. It wasn't finished but I loved it just as it was and decided that it was the perfect cover for the recording.
Lyrics
FRIEND OR FOE
(music and lyrics by Rebekah Pulley)
I see you everyday
Then the days pass
And years come from these days
I feel you cling tightly to me
As if I were all you were ever meant to be
And I see your kind acts and your patience
But with each act of so called kindness
I become more and more ungracious
And all I want to know
Is are you friend or foe
I get up everyday
And go through the motions
Of things I've got to do and say
I cling tightly to that which I was taught to believe in
But sometimes those things seem so deceiving
Then I feel that gentle tugging on my soul
Saying put down what you picked up
Let it be, it's time to go
All I want to know
Is are you friend or foe
