I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp I live life like the captain of a sinking ship The one thing that i can guarantee I'm like a stepping razor, i suggest you stay fair with me Been payin dues for a decade plus, Before that i was just another face on the bus Tappin my foot, to the beat on the radio Dreamin 'bout the mic and the money and the ladies Oh mom, i promise im gonna be large Someday im gonna stop tryin to borrow your car Gonna go far, with charisma and skill Until they put my face on a million dollar bill Atmosphere, its just a ten letter word Discretion is the name of my cement-feathered bird And if you didnt hear, fuck whatevers heard I think you got the sickness i suggest you get it cured Caught up in the mix, of a bottle full of fix Im gonna hobble down the street 'til i reach knob creek Its not that i dont like you, i just dont wanna speak You fuckin freak Now keep your days out my week The world keeps a balance, through mathematics Defined by whatever youve added and subtracted Im pushin on the hammer, to trigger the brain Embrace how i live it, god loves ugly
[chorus] God loves ugly...
Once upon a time in minneapolis, yo I damn near had to steal the show I stepped on the stage, who is it? My names slug ive come to kill a couple minutes Whats up with the way, that everybody gathers around each other So they can steal each others sound If its all about gettin down with the get down How long i gotta wait for these fools to sit down? Appears more clear in its simplest form Nobody sees tears when youre standing in a storm Abandoning the norm, and handling the harvest Measuring the worth by the depth of the hardships I welcome all the hatred you can aim at my name I held on to the sacred ways of how to play the game When the soldiers started runnin short on rations I began tappin the egg, to spark the hatchin Make it happen And take this captain to the gallows I keep steerin us into an area thats shallow Talkin to my shadow, he advised me not to worry He said i should plant my tree and let it rise out of the fury So give me some light, a little love and some liquid Im gonna creep through the night And put a plug in the spigot And when the water grows And the dam starts to overflow Ill float atop the flood, holding on to my ugly
[chorus]
Why scream, when you can lose yourself inside the wide-screen Let life be a bowl of melted ice cream Or be the deer thats caught in my high beams Im rollin with the lights on, scared stiff Reality is just too much to bear with Paranoid, walkin around careless No wonder youre in love with your therapist Go to sleep my little time bomb
