lyrics

(Intro)

life was missing vibrance in its iris when I'd bite her lip
spittin image of a sick and dying spirit diving in
the needle bed; and people said don't greet the dead
but, it seems the fetish overrode their countless tries to get me right again
speed pill for the upper vibe; sleep still but I'm numb inside
another night of headache and medicated love to come alive
digging six feet in the entry with this pretty
shifty disease in my skin breathing and spreading infinitely
I listen and greet this shadow with a warm welcome
my heart fell in and sunk beneath a dark, hellish
arc held together by Lucifer indeed
I'd start selling my soul, but Truth is turning me
to the angellic and selfless embellishing man held in
this damn relic of non-dual eternity
Take a hit and watch the paradoxes open up
pull the sockets & the plugs that everybody's molded ta'

Here I am, here I am
at the window peering in, peering in
but, soon, I may be kicking in, kicking in
for sure, getting wreckless
the glory and essence
The Doors of Perception

I'm putting holes in the fences
breaking all I've invested to the floor 'til it dents in
I'd dive in it, swimming pool
that's kind of sick, vomiting
can't find a fix and I'm fine with it, like a dead-man walking: Living Proof
R.I.P to the man, for real
Can't catch me slipping, banana peel
I slam the breaks and I jam the wheel
I break it down and then re-build
taking out the whole bag of pills
rap to kill, laughing still
ya'll fancy, all I got is ripped jeans,
empty pockets, faith, but damn, I'm chill
millionaire inside of my mind, no need to floss it, though
I've got my moral code, my laws here that I call my own
I'm so far gone, I know; but, I'm in proximity when I start to flow
you feel it, seal it, conceal the words up in the heart fo' sho'
I'm on a roll, and I ain't talking butter
I was the runner-up, but now I just one-upped the runner
That's Super Mario; I'm dodging ghosts and shit
beating down these heathens with a bloody red and swollen fist

(hook)
