Lyrics:
on this beach with palm trees
Drinks with umbrella straws telling it raw
Jungle of concrete- and snakes I was amongst that
Bundles of- through this
dot
I point and pop, pop, pop and drop
I got my mind right, money right ready for war
For that doe Bleek bustin that fo'
This how real we get deep
All the ends justify their means
Ready for the civil war they got started
From watching all of their screens
All the people flood the streets
Yeah,
feathers are a cancer in your bestie
And I pick a ginger gold as fed by a drunken uncle
One from a customer pumping that Sumner blood work
Memitim
street
Like bodies in an open grave
Underneath the broken old neon sign
That used to read
Jesus Saves
A mile away live the rich folks
And I see
Let's drink to the men who got caught by the chill
Of the patriotic fever and the cold steel that kills
The train pulled away on that glorious night
on this beach with palm trees
Drinks with umbrella straws telling it raw
Jungle of concrete- and snakes I was amongst that
Bundles of- through this
Packing my bags, going away
To a place where the air is clean
On Saturn
There's no sense to sit and watch people die
We don't fight our wars
You say you stand by your man
Tell me something I don't understand
You said you love me and that's a fact
And then you left me, said you felt
iration.
In the beginning, there was but one concept,
And that's the concept of I.
Then arose Apollyon, the Devil
- Satan! Satan! -
claiming that it's
complainin'
'Cause I'm glad that you're the one who got away, mm
'Cause if you ever think I'll take up
My time with thinkin' of our break-up
Then you've
cold out here and I'm all alone
Didn't make the short go again and I'm coming home
I know I've been away too long
I never got a chance to write
don't know we're here we'll get away."
Just as I had realized he was joking,
I saw we were in Washington D.C.,
'Cause there was all the patriotic
You keep running away
Though I beg you not to leave
But still you won't stay
Darlin' you keep running away
Tear my heart apart every step of the way
brown shoes
Same headache
Same pills
He goes home thinks about suicide
But he's got his diploma, ya got to give him that
I got a radical place
Got
ashamed of him.
Every Friday he goes fishing
Sown by the lake
But he only caught a perch or two, a whale got away
Guess, I'd better warm a steak.
Someday
you none
I want your blessin' today (love me)
Oh, by the way, open the door by the way
Told you that I'm on the way (love me)
I'm on the way, I know
to war
Well, I used to understand, now I can't say for sure
No, I can't
I got one wheel turnin', got one that's off the track
Yeah, I got one wheel
Ever seen a devil with a halo? (yeah)
Ever seen an angel with some horns? (y'know)
Everybody got their own demons
Everybody fightin' their own war
I
We old ones, have seen two wars
When you're sick and afraid
And there's danger around
Take a pick and a spade
And cut into the ground
Away from
doesn't matter if you're far away
Or right here by my side
That's the way I feel about it
We can't let the whole thing slide
So if you can't see me
We old ones, have seen two wars
When you're sick and afraid
And there's danger around
Take a pick and a spade
And cut into the ground
Away from
to war
Well, I used to understand, now I can't say for sure
No, I can't
I got one wheel turnin', got one that's off the track
Yeah, I got one wheel
The blind leadin' the blind, we walkin' in the dark
I think that it's contagious, we forever scarred (scarred)
Put diamonds on our chests to ease our achin'
