Mind street racin' and high speed chasin'
One of these days it'll drive me crazy
Life be sacred, what I've seen lately
Has made me stronger, rising daily
To the challenge of survival, the struggle of existin'
In the shallow world that these motherfuckers live in
So simple in their heads, to rinse away the dread
So they can be happy with their perfect little lives
And not have to think about the circus freaks that strive
Towards a liveable reality, where misery and tragedy
Make their presence felt just a little less emphatically
My grip'll slip on sanity, it's blink and miss like nipple slips
Mind's a slave to tidal waves, on the brink I'll sink through ripples quick
Flip a script ridiculous off top, they'll think it's written if
The rhythm tight meticulous, fuck 'em they oblivious
Surface look the prettiest, underneath it's hideous
Fuck I'm gonna do, where'd I go from here
I don't know
Fuck I'm gonna do, where'd I go from here
I don't know
Fuck I'm gonna do, where'd I go from here
I don't know
I don't know...
Professional parent fooler like I reckon I'm Ferris Bueller
But I more relate to Cam since my whole life pain and anguish
Or at least I thought it was until I became a man
Which changed my perspective, now I'm way more selective
'bout who the fuck deserving of my praise and attention
And who the fuck ain't worth it so I plainly reject 'em
Foul beasts run amok at night, beating you up on sight
Cause you reek of a structured life where peace isn't such a fight
Down so low
Drown so slow
Down so low
Drown so slow
And I could give a fuck about their tax dollars
Like they could give a fuck if I live in mad squalor
Man holler if you hear me, honestly I'm nearly through
But I can clearly do what they don't want me to
And it's eery dude, but the opposite is just as true
I can't be fucked with humans anymore, that's a chore to me
Guess dogs and cats are more my speed
And they talk to me, without that awful ego
They don't have to try - they just content to be yo
And that's my vibe, nowadays cause the now's my age
And the power changes every hour around my way
Loved her even more than I was terrified to core
Loved her even more than I was terrified to core
Loved her even more than I was terrified to core
Loved her then, love her now, will forever more.
