these honeyed lies
I keep feeding my mind
Just enough to live by
Til whatever end I'll find

The rush of euphoria
Flowing in my veins
As blood slowly

We've been stuck in the silence
Watching life passing us by
Slowly we lost our minds somewhere inside these walls
Did you forget the feeling?

with a slice in the heart, all confused by the narratives
all escaping to the parts with the laughs but the minutes never last cus it’s rush rush rush
in

kill bro, I never look
I peep game, you peepin Toms, and I'm the Brady to you peons
And when I cook, I see red, it's like I been burning neon
And that's

Thinking back to days when it was both of us
It might not have been love, but it was close enough

Before time stepped in and broke things up 
I did

on the job from 8 to 5
By the end of the day I'm barely alive

A single woman - 2 kids and a dog
Wanderin' around all week in a fog
Between work and family
I

by
Chasing dreams beneath the sky
Paper stacks and corporate calls
But my heart's behind these walls
9 to 18, it's how I live
But there's more I've got

Everyone is in a rush
Want to run around and do too much
You know I don’t really give two fucks
So I’ll just take my time now
I don’t mind
If I slip

is still there 
It pinches a little when I sigh and moan 
And these days I'm thinkin' I could just as soon use 
The time alone 

'cause all

Ayy, I ain't finna run this out, come on I ain't even Caught for the punch in this
Out These 2 for the punch in this out too, come on
I'm in the zoo

was something you're becoming
The best things in life, you can't rush it
Cause these days I'm shattered and damaged and fractured
My thoughts are a mess

Lets forget about our sins
Let this ménage à trois begin
Open your eyes and count to ten
It's gonna be a while, we're here to stay
Surrounded by all

The song also reflects, though, on ways in which we fall short, and feel “fatuous and empty”. So like most of these songs, happiness and sadness are

It's not really a day without a box of Thai food 
I don't know 
Sometimes I wanna be more social 
So trapped in 4corners I'm morning the thought

Why did we talk so much
Why did we talk, not hug
Why did we rush
Why did we fall into some routine called love
Why did we fight
Why did we laugh
Why

Weight on me like the clock of Flava Flav
By the end of this song I dug a grave
To bury these bitter succubus'
I'm a man on a mission
A galactic decision

And look at how I did all these bitches, look, I mean women
All throughout my life, drunken and scattered nights
She don't believe in abortion, pressure

Real OG from the 6 14
Chasing a bag and I get that shit by any means yeah
I’ve been giving strength to the weak
Boy I swear I do it every week, aye

tryna show you what this real love like, okay
Is it okay witchu
If I come play witchu
Come lay witchu
Keep you by my side, spend my days witchu
Together

you're down
Reminisce these moments

But now 
We're laying by the airport
The planes rush by and they soar
Every night we'll see more
Until it's time to go

The hypocrisy
Another tongue in cheek altar to Democracy
To help normalize the day to day atrocities
By the law of the land, as planned by the man upstairs

Verbal Murder 2

Pete Rock

Soul Survivor, Vol. 1

1998

Yo, Terror Squad, Pete Rock collabo' 
From git-go, yo, yo

All these dick riders tryna corrupt the game 
But what it

who cared to fill the air by my side

Don't go
Don't go

Stealing your face right away
From your head
An empty lit smile
Without these problems are dead

You won't find me for days
I'm Lost like a stray 
Like a nail in some hay 
I'm taking trips to the Bay
While making trips to yo bae
Man what can I
