Lyrics Forged - Josh Martinez, McEnroe

Forged

I’ve made things with clay and been covered with mud
I’ve seen men do miracles hands covered in blood
I’ve coveted much and been subjected to flood
I’ve been forged in fire and rejected as a dud
Lead the charge of the light brigade and sack the old city
I’m too young to be adjusted stuck in sudden self-pity
Everybody gets down i was sunk and feeling shitty
Decisions made regretted get vetoed by committee
And I’ve sworn off tofu, I eat meat and potatoes
And I’m into anarchism, feminism and landscaping
Men our mission is the system and our time’s a wasting
Just picking up the pieces and sticking up for feces
I don’t want to always get shit on, shower and shave
And find out fast the last thing I am is brave
I’ve killed a lot of time watching cable lately
The art of conversation interferes with cheers
You can’t make me, can’t make anyone do what they don’t wanna
Apathy is in, the medium is marijuana
Each one teach one, but never trust a preacher
The pope smokes dope so reach for the reefer
Why does every channel serve up a different sermon
I know I prefer my pulpit in the sewer with the vermin
I once went to church now I choose the Godfather
On DVD trilogy as the source of my divinity
And passed by the pope.
.with the end of the rope type thing
I bring a critical view to the pew
Cos too much starts up fiction like the taming of the shrew
And then gets misconstrued
So I snuck out of ???
for risk of being rude
Because the words were nonsense the pacing unbearable
So I don’t drive on sundays cause the traffic is terrible
I’ve got plenty of confidence I don’t need a leader
If you wonder what I worship then it’s at the movie theater
Admiring the off color humor of the Korn brothers
Loving Hitchkock… and many others
My devotion is deep like ???
disappointment in ???
And my mind’s manipulated like ???
But not by a pastor or minister
I manipulate the fast forward
As a method of confession adressing the sins of past years
Attempting to cleanse like an invention of ???
I’ve made things with clay and been covered with mud
I’ve seen men do miracles hands covered in blood
I’ve coveted much and been subjected to flood
I’ve been forged in fire and rejected as a dud
