lyrics

he loads that bowl because his psyche wrestles with his soul
inside a cosmic courthouse too proud to know which one holds
the gabble that will rattle the battle and find a victor
a sicker symphony of acquired desire for liquor
swimming in the liquid of the wicker with a torch in hand
with a slip of the wrist you'll be scorching the landscape
awake the day we make a change and find our fate
find what creates hate, find how to escape mistakes we make
and shape the human race we break tape
immaculate confessions in the poetry sessions
we're flexing vocal weapons repping absolutely nothing
but the heat of the sun on my back
spirit that you lack, but it's all love
got your feet stuck inside the chemical hugs
remove that thorn from your side,
let the slime slide right through the wound
we can rise above and scatter laughter seeds
along the river banks of our blood streams
real dreams

call me to the courtroom and i'll be there to kill the variables
and pull the wool from your vision
your'e swimming in a vat of superstition
and i'm sitting in the kitchen ready to start the stove
hope you know the life your'e living isn't a joke
and when the smoke clears your grip is slipping off the rope
identities lost and lines crossed but the charges are dropped
opponents bring the ragnarok but time stops
and i've exposed the jagged edges of this broken clock
make a pose and i'll paint a picture with the lights off
in perfect detail
this type of insight cannot be found for sale in a retail store
and now i'm losing faith in my city
this apple's been chewed to the core
family trees uprooted by emotional war
culture and folklore spills on to the floor and shatters
killing the fervor and darkening this novels mood
nothing that you know is un-skewed but your own crude thoughts
and a stove top covered in rot
there's nothing left in the pot
