Signal to the brain interrupted; stutter, pull yourself together Flutter in my eye from the burning sky; toxins can’t be measured Watch what I say ‘round who ‘round here ‘cause nope, no you NEVER know intentions of the faceless, wasted replacements I CELEBRATE another day spent hunting footprints on the pavement Leading to the CAVES where the slaves went grabbed sharp rocks and engraved it Thank god that SOMEBODY saved it to pass it on to generation XY the fuck flex MUSCLES Under developed and immature see the chest swell up TELL ‘EM I’m all gone no good to you now cash your chips and be out READ THE sign all wrong lit a smoke at the bar they started pushing me out No wonder got storm clouds the people been warned now but they was never TOLD HOW, and we was never listening- oh child didn’t mama tell you ‘bout the DAY when you’d have to man the fuck up stop being a punk what, what was that SPIT it up or give it up forever hold your peace; do yourself a favor and RELEASE cancerous teeth cramping your reach Keep ‘em spinning in their graves, tell ‘em
Cherish my disease/ who’s first to be the last of a dying breed
If thunder had no name you’d know it just the same ‘cause fear is in your VEINS And a thorn is in your side and a cramp is in your brain ‘Cause now you can’t DECIDE Whether to wrong your rights from the longest night
Play it honest, right? Place it on your life SEE NO evil? Yes, evil do I see, hear, smell, taste, touch COMING from my own people? Yes, justice locked away until the gates rust But ’TIL THEY PLACE US where wild things bust and we buried face up I’m KEEP digging my way my way up out the dirt up out the hurt
ABOUT TO BURST with a thousand words on the tip of my tongue and a song unsung HERO living out a shopping cart wouldn’t be so bad if you ain’t mock him hard Shed Dead Skin I’m a Shed Dead Skin I’m a Shed Dead Skin IN THE Red West Winds where you go to scatter ashes and you end up scattered past it
Without that glimmer in your eye , without that limp in your step Without that blemish on your pride, without that whiskey on your breath I count steps from my government options Black suits, red ink, white ties Brown bags speak louder than the toxins, I’ll take my chances with a one-sided die
Sunset smeared on my unchecked fears now my blood sweats tears That’s one less gear that my brain gotta grind And one less problem on my mind
