Ike Sara - Dead Man Float Lyrics

There's a needle in the sky but what to sow?
I already know, yeah
But that twinkle in my eye do the dead man float
When nobody's home

Get with the plan
Cinderblocks for hands
Lead in my lungs
Moon in my palm
Read it on the train
Highway for veins
One crossed and one gone to find your way home
Sunrise
I can't work here for the rest of my life
I just soak here
I just bide my time
Won't sink between the lines any longer
With a chip on my shoulder

There's a needle in the sky but what to sow?
I already know, already know
But that twinkle in my eye do the dead man float
When nobody's home
When I don't pick up the phone when my sister calls

My mama was a sailor
But even by the sea
My heart has got a jailor
There ain't no key
What you got for me?
Nothing but fortune cookie parrables
A pair of full belly politicians
And a bitch with a half mast flag
R.I.P.'d all your dreams
You got side eye beams
But my slide by mean
On the rise like cream
And I just might be
Finally free
Free
