Lyrics:
the capacity that you need
Holding on to things for years and years until it's explosive in ways that you never could've seen
They tell you to breathe but every
let my life pass by
Just following these lies
It's intermission
I'm not holding back to save you your feelings
Go on and let the master know to call
your furry teeth
Picture yourself as a four year old
Squinting in the sunlight
Holding your little spade
So unspoiled, so sweet
That's it, right there,
much time left but I'd like to stick around
Cause your hospitality has got me holding back tears
And I haven't felt anything in years.
And I know I'm
of they violence
But we in this bitch 'til the truth come out
Got the nerve
To call it a lesson
I refuse to learn it
There's no holding us back
We'll break
holding on
I take a step back, look up in the sky
Think about the time that I had you in my life
Lived 96 years, full of happiness and cheers
And I'm so
I met this girl when I was three years old
We were holding hands tight so I'm told
And it felt like an eternity
Said it felt like an eternity
All the strings attached, girl
All the strings attached, girl, oh yeah
Met this girl when I was three years old
We were holding hands tight so
still holding my breath
Breath
Breath
Breath
Cause years go by
Finally everything lines up
Everything fits in place
Everything all in line
I still point
back again to the bottom of the well, but now he was so light he could escape by fluctuating. Then, right on the first try with a single jump, he fled
It's been 7 years
And I know that it feels it's been way too long
But now that I got myself back on the run
Everybody else knows how we got this
and forwards
Between the years
I'm travelling the time
When Christmas is over
But before the New Year begins
It may be express by name
But it's anything
But
a stray on Sway when I locked jaws,
Every track back when his platform, was not thought
But got sparked by my ten-year-old rap, My Lord
We'd pop off for
were loved by your family and adored your precious son who now is forced to live his life without his father at such a young age, only 4 years old.
You
1, 2, 3, Hey (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm always holding back
You're on another wave I wonder when your coming back
I'm done with always floating
day
You're holding on to me, when I know we need to be free
I just need some time so I can
Get back what you stole
Rebuild what you broke down
Won't be
to deliver one very specific message:
Lock your back door, you idiot
However invincible you imagine yourself to be
You are wrong
Thirty-three years go by
all black like the omen
Kim said it, yup, BIG wrote it
So I'm feeling like a Greek God when I quote it
Lightyears ahead, but I was caught up in
Heads will be rolling in their graves
So pray
You're holding back because you're scared to fail
Well I've been to hell
Sipping from the holy grail
Blowing
Year's of suffering, my back is hurting
As a kid, I had trouble making
Friends
I don't understand society
Nothing really makes sense
If I leave this
Been a year I been to hell and back and outer space
Buying chandeliers a couple houses out in other states
Magazine covers make me hate the way i'm
leaking out your faucets, hmm
Time to forfeit your crown and leave the grounds
There's a new sheriff in town holding it down
It's the two holster,
leaking out your faucets, hmm
Time to forfeit your crown and leave the grounds
There's a new sheriff in town holding it down
It's the two holster,
your close friends turn they back on you
The only person you use to talk to
Is now gone
Amazing grace was the one I called Black Rose
On the road
