Hand Over Hand |
| It’s the American dream |
| But if you pull on the thread, it’s gonna tear at the seam |
| See what I mean? |
| We don’t tend to scream |
| Baby, we just stare at the screen |
| Like it’s a preacherman up at the pulpit |
| Some with the scars end up holding the bullwhip |
| Another angry kid unloading a full clip |
| And I could tie a pretty bow on this bullshit |
| But let’s not lie for another second |
| We see the trouble, we’re rubberneckin |
| No doublecheckin, if it’s an issue we have to grapple |
| The words are caught in my Adam’s apple |
| I make my body a happy chapel |
| Cause every person’s a tabernacle |
| But there’s no feeling you gotta hide |
| So let’s all pray to the God inside, say it now |
| Never needed a hand til you needed a hand |
| You never know how to walk until you understand |
| Coulda been anything that you needed to be |
| How many more do you want? |
| How many more do you need? |
| Still I wish I could break free |
| It’s that same old simple song I still believe |
| How many more do we need? |
| Before it’s hand over hand |
| Love over everything |
| That’s me with the long arm |
| Screaming at the top dog, spilling my blood on the cement |
| We willing to roll now, sick of getting mowed down |
| Fuck if I dope now, it’d kill me |
| Cause I’d rather be known for the dealing |
| Than known to be hooked on the feeling |
| How many more gotta go now? |
| How many more gotta go down? |
| I’ll stand in the rain witcha, just to get a little bit of glimpse of the plain |
| picture |
| People need a pinch just to get em to wake up |
| You’ll be in a ditch before I get you to wake up, say it bruh |
| Whoever said it wasn’t fair, they was telling the truth |
| I’d be a liar if I said there was nothing to prove |
| Never needed a hand til you needed a hand |
| You never know how to walk until you understand |
| Coulda been anything that you needed to be |
| How many more do you want? |
| How many more do you need? |
| Still I wish I could break free |
| It’s that same old simple song I still believe |
| How many more do we need? |
| Before it’s hand over hand |
| Love over everything |
| They say we gotta know our role |
| Kiss the bottom of the totem pole |
| Set goals, and then go for gold |
| But we hibernate and hide inside our gopher holes |
| I wanna smoke a bowl, a hand on my dick |
| While the other one is busy clicking the remote control |
| I’m no Dalai Lama of the sofa but I hear I gotta go to |
| Where the sinners face the roasting coals |
| You say that your heart ain’t got no holes, well bitch please |
| Let’s all admit that we got souls like Swiss cheese |
| But wishing isn’t gonna fill this abyss |
| And no hand over hand over fisted riches is fixin what’s missin |
| If I wanna kill this monotony |
| I know the answer is a light that I got in me |
| I got no university degree in philosophy |
| But I know that every baby’s born with the lock and key |
| Never needed a hand til you needed a hand |
| You never know how to walk until you understand |
| Coulda been anything that you needed to be |
| How many more do you want? |
| How many more do you need? |
| Still I wish I could break free |
| It’s that same old simple song I still believe |
| How many more do we need? |
| Before it’s hand over hand |
| Love over everything |
