lyrics

At work I keep a spliff in my vest I keep my phone in my hand so I don’t get depressed
They don’t think I understand whats really good for my soul
Cuz only when im alone I even half say it

At night I leave my tears on the bus
Next time you ride on the bus
It makes you think of us
I keep actin like the sun don’t even shine in the see
The sun don’t shine in the sea you have to crack spray it

Feel awake when im sleeping
Travel through space through a grave I am reaching
Too down to save im not safe in your keeping
Just yesterday I saw musselman breathing, if that’s not deceiving
And really if it happens in my head, is it truly any different from seeing?
Counting my bread, feeling thankful this evening but im not eating but their cooking and im writing my songs without even looking im the rookie
They hunt me like Jesus, bake like a cookie
And duh dunna nu nuh
Bake like a cookie now we’ve all changed
Just like the seasons for unexplainable reasons
Act like we’re all sane, please us

You cant take it its too close to my heart
And when its close to my heart it never falls apart
You cant take that its too close to my things
You take your books and your things and learn to not say it

They only see me with a mic in my hand
I keep the mic in my hand dont even use the stand
you cant take it if im giving my life
So if im giving you life don’t have to not say it

I never been this kind of boat before
I was the man until I got too much emotional
Why do they hoax me for
Never been around my kind of folks before
Never watered down and never broke just poor
I know I talk a lot of shit
And I know you act scary like a clown
Three little handles on the shift
Make it like you mean it make a sound
I been done handled my shit
So im takin it easy right now
You don’t have to wait for me to spit
Stop actin cheesy right now
Bet they need me in the town
Bet they seen my dude around
Bet you they were looking for my clique
Bet your bottom dollar we were found
I been done handled my shit
So im takin it easy right now
You don’t have to wait for me to spit
Stop actin cheesy right now
