lyrics

I brush my teeth to the beat when I’m in my bathroom
And the rhythm's what I use to nurse all the stab wounds
there wont be a movement if you don't move
and you better do it soon
cause your lungs wont last that long
gonna crash through to the great black nothingness
back in company of a succubus
stuck without accomplice
up in couldn't stop anonymous,
honest, we got no love just lust and busted open ribs
you don't want to fuck with us
just listen how I chop and cut the contents of my cupboard up
vocal Vonnegut gobbling thoughts
and vomiting lyrics up
until my guts are touching every inch of the page
and you can hear my spirit pacing in its vessel
no matter your age

I wrestle with the recluse life
and the aim to be famous but stuck inside a cage
roll the dice and watch the change in status
never basic no fade

cause we don't play that game that you've been slanging man
no vices invade my castle but the ones that I already have
so glad so disastrous
verses written in 3D, we don't need glasses
kill the class caste
got the gas your gonna bring the matches
eating captain crunch and watching captain planet
I never hear no gats clapping
but I’m never lacking action

crafting mad art till my face turns blue
but the true artists don't ever cash in
I curse currency you've stacking

and the ladies they aren't batting lashes cause I’m weird as fuck
and if the opportunity happens I never jump at it
just my luck, I made a habit of living under the mattress
stuck in the serenity of total detachment
and if Satan steps my way with my scepter I’ll stab him in the face
wait

never paid
no fame
great grades
you don’t know the name
so strange

I’m seeing stars and haven't even made a start yet
bleeding something awful pull the heart up off the carpet
like I’m gonna make it so, so far with this garbage
screen friends eating digital dreams
but they are nothing but a little carcass
got a lot of cash but your influence is harmless
to those that grow old without gold flow as a target
river shark spirit need no money I’m an artist
playing her vertebrae like it’s a harp course charted
star gazing got my mouth gaping
on the roof of the apartment
no relation to the popular kids I’m being honest

parted from my creations I'd be gone with
the wind no drama
caught you cowards looking yellow like its jaundice
wealthy relative so infamous but not wanted for the content

stream of consciousness isn't any less haunted
than the bongs you rip
causing problems with all of the songs I spit
so open and sing along with it

get real
got my doctorate in dealing feelings
and reading the blank stares

so heal your ignorance and listen to the
wisdom of the little kids and their innocence
isn't anything better than that path

no need to do the math
don't see the reason in facts
if you haven't lost your grasp on the past

tilt your skull back
and just laugh
