Gussy up your ego
Take a trip inside the coal mine
Neighbors want to buy a yard
I'm tryna rock the full nine
Ten o'clock, the ave
Turns into a wool palace
Get my fix, I'm in the mix
I'm well aware of my own talents
Omission of facts
I consider that concealed carry
I drape a suitable vest
In bulletproof weather
I invest in numeral levers
Just as soon as I remember
Some got no insurance on these sueable endeavors
Friends who need a fix
Better off being broken
The remedy is not overdosing
I'd rather be another mean emcee
Than to be the one chosen
Searching for impunity
Amongst a bed of roses
Temperamental
My style like plate tectonics
I changed my name to bed
They say they ain't slept on it
Thoughts behind the glass, I drop fast
To see a mirror or two
Lost you come in last
I kick those habits
Boy don't be a fool
The truth is rather bleak
Don't know who you tryna flatter
Complaints from all your friends
I guess I got what I was after
Zipper on my mouth
I treat your name like heavy feathers
Nonexistent, disc-skipping misfit on endeavors
Caught a case of bought freebase
And now she's off to Cali
If I was running bases
Right now, she couldn't out me
Her use and the abuse altered reality profoundly
The truth is like a noose
In the way that it surrounds me
Her love, she pulled the plug
Now no, body round to ground me
My mind was just a portrait
Had no time to try accounting
Curtain call the butcher
My attorney acting rowdy
Hearts were gonna break
Why would you ever doubt me?
This the part that hurts
I wish you worse than Brenda's Baby
Morality off the charts
I didn't treat you like a lady
Reiterate my case
I say temptation's all you gave me
Nostradamus, I'm an artist, call me maybe
You just gon' keep breathing
Take your hands up off the switchblade
Might just end up leaving
Can't you brothers dig your own graves?
Missed a lot of calls
I put my mother onto shoegaze
Put in work and double down
By June you gon' be dismayed
But that's a bitter pill to swallow
When your feet just tend to follow
Intentions your heart forgot to mention are truly hollow
Sinking in your sorrow
You could drown it in the bottle
You could knowledge it
But wallow in tomorrow
While your head forgets to mention
That you're stuck at the lotto desk
Between a rock and a hollow bottle
A tower tends to topple
Looking for another link to tap and one to follow
I got no brakes
I popped a tire
My poppa told me averting eyes conceal certain ties
So I must clarify that
I got objections where the burden lies
I think I jeopardize a better ride
Pleasure lies with whatever guys' seven wives' jealous eyes
Perceiving
But that won't stop the rain from pouring this evening
Weaving intricacies
Coping mechanisms ain't always treason to my feelings
I repeat lines sometimes
These ones I wrote for demons
Please just stop the frontin'
Take a look right the window
Most of my associates living not too far from limbo
Karma gon' collect
Pays no mind to dreadful weather
Pharma my connect
Yeah, we all in bed together
Part of me's a target to a heart with no religion
The other part is garnished, frozen into one position
Typos on my phone got me trippin' over nonsense
Cousin hates high school
Told him call in with a bomb threat'
Yeah, I listen when you speak
Your style's so condescending
Concerned with all these petty acts
And not the consequences
Hugo boss and denim
Kate Moss' the cost of living
A detox rocks, but
Atrocity's building off of borrowed time, I thought was mine
That jade pendant, delayed interest, and everything that came with it
Without the better things and wedding rings
I'm meddling in calligraphies and letterings,
My heart is slowly weathering
I'm tethered to a cavalry of reckless teens
I'm treading water fast
But all these clever lonely pasts got me wondering
If forever only lasts as long as sinning isn't useless, see
Now, I've determined that I'm swimming to the surface more unusually
Someone give a eulogy
I'm martyring this part of me
The rest can live on harmlessly
My artistry extends beyond my tarnished arteries
Alarmist pharmacies
My karma sees my currency converting doctors to con artists when the Tardis leaves
My artifice?
I'll pack a list
It's hazardous to crash a whip
While having several deadly sins stacked in bricks
Yeah, that's a risk
Yo, just a casualty of doing business for a masochist
A snake will trick a basilisk
And take his stake of master discs
And burn it in an effigy for sake of sacrilege
The enzyme inhibitor
That insists he was a catalyst
Is acting as if his past assists weren't half the pits as the batting averages that he established in his practices
