lyrics

Ear to the vine, nose to the grindstone
Eyes on the prizes full of the hydro
Candle in the wind, burnt at the ends
Work like a man with a world to avenge
Submerged until its time to resurface again,
then I burst through the bends, Get turnt to the tenth
Part predator, part prey
Parts that connect and parts that part ways
Spent a little time at the heartbreak hotel
Prolly why the mind views dark days so well
Thick skin, covered up plans,
Skeleton stocked with them 21 grams
Air in the lungs, blood and guts and…
A set of wings that a mother fucker expands

Out of time, in a rush, out of play, in the clutch
Out of line, in as much, out of ways, in a rut
Out to fly in the sun, out of days in the month
Out of mind, in the touch, out the haze in the muck

I’d be lying if I said I knew the way
I’m in my head most every single day
I’m out of it, and walking through the grey
It’s all I know, it’s all that I can say


Fortune hiding in the crease of my hands
Smoke stains covering the teeth that I clamp
Flutter in the chest, tummy full of fried foods
Fruit in the loins and a beard like a bayou
Please, bounce to the feet
Never told a prayer while down on my knees
I found my God while out in the streets
With a clan full of friends in the van frestyling to beats
Gotta chip on the shoulder, nerve in the laugh
I’ve given everything even the shirt off my back
Followed all the roads and the curve of the path
One step forward, circular tracks
And, I lugged myself through the maze of mistakes
Laughed so hard that it pained my rib cage
Chinny chin up, and misty eyes
Spread them wings and kiss the sky
