Cold War |
At my brother’s Jannaza |
Tears stained sunglassses |
A Salat with no bows |
Pallbearer carry you to the car now |
Chill day, Mosque on 96 and 3rd |
New York City way, me and J never left my side |
Refs like that pitcher with your pride |
Who look just like. |
Now the city looks lest bright |
Brooklyn looking less special |
Should’ve kept it the same way |
As when you were on this level |
You: work in progress from 40 projects: God bless |
An inspiration and a king |
They won’t know what I mean but this I’m bout to spring |
Protect it with every feather on the wings |
So even when it hurts, you’ll never feel a thing |
Said it’s a cold cold world |
Ain’t nobody wins except the government |
In the U.S.S.R |
Who you think you are? |
And you can fight it, but there’s no defense |
For the? |
Baby grab a jacket |
Let me clarify the chorus |
And what my cold warress |
Cause the complexity is enormous |
Using one of my greatest losses with eyes like faucets |
To reinforce every single word that I talk with |
Something about losing things, human beings |
That reduces things to their most elementary |
Find yourself where you never meant to be |
With the energy of memory |
That’s the soul force of what’s behind killing me |
Finding pleasure in the pains |
Finding desert in the rain |
Twisted: how this world can drive you masochistic |
Question if I’m over it |
Or if I’m numb because I’m closureless |
Or my closure’s that we all gotta go and shit |
Rendered emotionless but moving at the speed of running over it |
Still happy that I opened it |
In the studio writing these words, one after another |
In memorial of my brother |
As you listen to the album with |
Nothing on the cover |
I imagine that he hovers |
In the back of his chair |
Floating right there in the air |
Knodding his head to the music, I slightly lose it |
Ask why do I put myself through this |
Crack a smile, look up at the file |
Phones on the screen of me tryna tell you what I mean |
But I feel that it’s all lost, or maybe that it’s all gotta cross |
Happy with his dedicated song |
But now he’s all gone |
But he was never there, cause |
He was everywhere, nowhere and down here |
Maybe on that judgement day, rise up |
We’ll both open our eyes up, climb up |
Hoping God forgives us for our tendencies |
Wipes away our cool young histories |
