Wake
I said something rude because im scared.
We see the fire at the windows.
I know there’s danger, can’t tell where.
You wanna stay but I cant stare, no.
Even so, we gotta go.
Even so, we gotta go.
We aint got no time to load.
close our mouth, must brave the smoke.
No time for thoughts, hope or shit.
Make your exit, that’s your treat.
Defeat our deceit and then leave.
It ain’t retreat, I promise we fight.
It’s easy to end it all now,
Its hard to hit bottom,
It’s hard to stay psyched.
But look at my smile, we might,
By the sweat of our brow.
Our labor not measured in dollar amounts,
Carry our weight by the pound, in our duty.
I’m looking right at you, but you’re speaking through me.
Mirrored reflections offbeat, we wont see them.
Don’t be obsessed like a seaman.
Not like her man, like Moby dick.
Mental formations, all in tricks.
Ballsier gambles means big losses.
All this is, Never no nonsense.
But there’s always some shit that we say.
But there’s always your conscience it’s giving you grades.
But, there’s always a but. Thanks.
No shit, but shut up.
Even so, we gotta go.
Don’t stand there, are you nuts?
You ain’t got time to pick out a coat.
No shit, but shut up.
Even so, we gotta go.
Don’t stand there, are you nuts?
You ain’t got time to pick out a coat.
I’d stand there and watch it like pateks,
But I have my patterns to panic, we scramble.
Cataclysm might come with a cause, but no preamble.
Survival reaction is all that I handle.
I aint even got enough time to plan to the end.
I step out the door, and I cant pretend, it aint looking great.
The flames are forming a wave,
They’re over the city, they’re over the state. (1-uh)
I’m leaving this world. was that an option?
I can not wait to forgo the caution though.
Tie my rope in knots and pop my tonic, lost my wallet, it’s all good because aint no
cash in space.
I am not sure if I’m honest.
All I know, is we need to escape.
Ain’t this a hell of a wake?
No shit, but shut up.
Even so, we gotta go.
Don’t stand there, are we nuts?
We ain’t got time to pick out a coat.
No shit, but shut up.
Even so, we gotta go.
Don’t stand there, are we nuts?
we ain’t got time to pick out a —
