Self Portrait |
This is my self portrait |
Wrapped up warm in my north-face |
Gliding through storms and doorways |
And rhyme 'til my jaw breaks |
Sure mate a vision of me |
With the television smashed and the sizzling beef |
And I’m steady living, trapped in the rhythm and beat |
And my head is spinning, smacked out hitting the weed |
And I guess it isn’t bad if it helps me adjust |
But I’ll tell you it’s mad when it dwells in my trust |
And affect it, and that’s a lesson mate use it |
Seems that I have to be depressed to make music |
Unless my face cubic, I’ll break out the surface |
Never played stupid, my guessing games worthless |
As I step on the wetter rain dirt |
Its a lot more certain I never played her kid |
One step ahead of my definite loss |
Trying to fight my battles but the weapon is blocked |
Am I ever going to be the main game or a weather turner |
Never going to be my own brain or a clever learner |
I’ll pedal further to make heads turn |
I’m hooked like a maggot or a baked dead worm |
So is this hatred, happiness all maybe fake |
Confused by my life but I play the game |
And stay the same insane in my crazy brain |
And paint my name on walls to claim the fame -- |
It’s plainly lame |
I can’t find the reflection, the puddle’s been clouded |
Blind from deception, another kid frowning |
Why must I step with the rubble and the sand dunes |
My mind seems fucked from the trouble and the bad news |
My dad used to say to keep sane; |
keep up James and don’t live the clean way |
But he’s blatantly strange, faking his ways |
From a crazy age I saw him pacing away |
Chasing the pathways, lost with the lights out |
Raving with class mates, cost of a life now |
The lessons learnt from the freshly burned victim |
I once beat a kid to the ground then I kicked him |
Switch the sickness to friends and favours |
Strong as a shield as I bend your sabres |
Free from the jail, the dark and dark fader |
Tarnish my past, live fast and laugh later |
This is dark, my answers scarce paper |
Gassed in the last chamber, enhance my hearts neighbour |
But thats my soul or my brain, or the golden maze of my swollen veins |
Or my body parts drenched in the rain as the lorries pass |
Motorways stain fake like a bobbies mask |
Got to pass this rap in a sore state |
I’d love to be free but I’m trapped in my portrait |
