Black and Gold |
Coffee before work, a little liquor after |
Routine and cope, it’s all disguised by laughter |
His generation built guilt, Chevys and wealth |
My generation can’t talk about nothing but itself |
You can’t make wine from the grapes of wrath |
Only choke on the dust from your families past |
I know the right answers, but I don’t believe them |
I got goals, but I’m afraid to achieve them |
I wanna be the scarecrow that scares the eagle |
But I’m too scared of opinions by people |
The best ideas don’t survive, they get buried alive |
Regret was his bride cause he married a lie |
The geese were flying in a V for vanish down south |
As the big dipper poured stars and champagne in my mouth |
He had empty bottles to go with his promises |
I filled em all with messages just for the piranha’s lips |
Coffee to wake up, beer to go to sleep |
We work all day then we try to eat |
When i was young i had a Michael Jackson glove |
Some people can’t walk so they use addiction as a crutch |
We used to share laughter, now we share coffee and silence |
I never knew not talking or fighting could be so violent |
Alcohol’s the anesthesia, life is the surgery |
Addiction is the assistant trying to murder me |
He tried to drown his sorrows but they learned to swim |
Caffeine and nicotine, liquor’s got a lot of friends |
In a town called obsession that was built by dependence |
The population’s jonesing cause there’s no one to defend it |
Enslavement is chain-less, when your master’s a a habit |
Anger and withdrawal comes when you can’t have it |
Coffee and beer I used to think they were nasty |
I never knew when i got older they would catch me |
When i grew up I realized it wasn’t about the taste |
But in all actuality it was the problems they erased |
Coffee to wake up, beer to go to sleep |
We work all day then we try to eat |
