| Stick stained with the color of my blood
|
| Life has been a variance of luck
|
| And a bunch of long trips getting dragged behind a truck
|
| It’s not the vision that I had when I was young
|
| But it’s better than pretending and then biting down on my tongue when they ask
|
| me
|
| Go ahead and walk right past me
|
| I don’t need them now, a broken wave
|
| No matter how the world spins round or the bounty on my plate
|
| What’s inside of me is never gonna change
|
| But they don’t wanna look
|
| Skipping like a stone across a brook
|
| Trying to keep me is a secret is strung up on a hook
|
| You can’t evolve without somebody feeling took
|
| And reacting like they never seen upon attack a rook
|
| Get a grip, I’ve been painting pictures like this
|
| Long before you knew that a person like me existed
|
| You point your finger claiming product of the system
|
| But you wouldn’t know the difference if it bit you
|
| Some things will always be the same
|
| I’m still right here to take the blame
|
| One thing or another, it’s all the same
|
| It feels like I’m trying to start a fire in the rain
|
| It’s like I’m spitting in the wind
|
| Judged by a jury full of trained
|
| Jumping kids trying to find a better skin
|
| I’ve made a valiant effort in my life to be honest with myself
|
| But no matter what I do I’ll never win
|
| The needle and the pen
|
| Writing it all out for those receiving it
|
| Trying to get a breath amongst the smog
|
| Sounding like a tuned down song that’s been stringing me along
|
| Trying to figure out where all of this went wrong
|
| It’d be easier to laugh
|
| Singing this from the inside of the casket
|
| Rapping out of tune, writing poems on a napkin
|
| You can’t excel without em poking at your passion
|
| Following your tracks and a force full of has-beens
|
| If you were so sure morality bounce
|
| What’s the point of sticking round and watching old men drown?
|
| The dumbest child throwing stones in glass houses
|
| You wouldn’t know a challenge if it found em
|
| Some things will always be the same
|
| I’m still right here to take the blame
|
| One thing or another, it’s all the same
|
| It feels like I’m trying to start a fire in the rain |
