lyrics

I’m from a place where if you got bars, then bustin’s the norm
Get high as heck, and school you on justice reform
I don’t even gotta cuss up a storm
Y’all must just’ve been born
Being human’s an uncomfortable form
I’m a spirit, illuminating something before
We could ruminate, you feel it in the thump in the floor
Shout to my homie Justin of course
And the homie Dustin, not for nothing, wish I talked to em more
But I’m walking the dog and talking to this tape recorder
More or less an ape with less weight and more disorders
Think we're civilized
Peep the cages on the borders
Wages underwater
Seeing danger in the stranger on the corner
Laws for making order
But we taking orders
Trying to escape these quarters and dimes, dollars and cents
Time is so logical, hence
It's not an optimal lens
There's more than just the optical sense
Don't stay propped on a fence
Till you end up in a hospital bed
You think these obstacles end?
Better job, better friends
It's better not to depend
I never stop the metacognitive cleanse
Not every thought is a gem
And those you make audible tend
To be the particles caught in your web
Never said that it was all in your head
The heart is relevant, don't
Retard development like swallowing lead
Are you being followed or led?
Swallowed or fed?
Hollowed out or making room for knowledge of self?
I'm not a doctor but was doctored from the cards I was dealt
Now I'm just finishing the story that I started to tell

But first I gotta feel it
Don't smoke it away
Don't drink it away
Some days you gotta feel it
Some days you gotta feel it

You can either mope in the dark
Or open your heart
Sit around and hope for a spark
Or throw all your darts
Either way you're living
Either way you're dying
Either way you're living
Either way you feel it
Some days you gotta feel it
