Wake Lyrics

I just woke up and went to a wake

Ashes to ashes

I put them on some bark

And floated him away

Long day feeling like Cassius Clay

Glacial street corners

Got these ice skaters looking thin as a rake

Watch you don't cut off your nose

To spite your face

Read between the lines i'm complex

Without a complex

That little racker he selling goods

Taken from the Civic complex

Or was it Northlands

Seen more foreign lands

Than a gold chasing Northman

Murking art like Bailer with a spray can

One man band

My instruments are samplers

And vivid life recollections

Never base your worth

Off social media mentions

No cure for war wounds

Only aggression

Insight

Or prevention

Red Dead Redemption

Riding through your town

Got a penchant for burning crowns

My engine

Is powered by pain and gritty sounds

Raw facts i steady murk

City vampires got a money thirst

Gritty artist with the hunger

That noise up the road

Ain't thunder

It aint thunder

Raw facts in every verse

City vampires got a money thirst

Gritty artist with the hunger

Cold world

We're just flesh and a number

Flesh and a number

I'm barely supposed to be here

Astonished a few 

Failures hating others wins

That's what gossipers do 

Deny a lot of interviews

Rather whip through the streets

Shoot the breeze with Gs 

That quote the grimy diaries I do

You associate with invertebrates 

I tread burnt landscapes

Lacing Tn Terrascapes

I love it when colonial statues

Are defaced 

Wave the black flag like Henry Rollins

I was like eleven

When my friends sister

Died from huffing solvents

Clever ones change shoes

And dress plain

To avoid being picked as culprits 

Gliding through the night

In some dark times

Crescent moon

Murky winter Solstice 

Climbed out the mud

Where jackal heads

Try to weigh up the size of your heart

Like Anubis 

Maybe you can handle risk 

Maybe you can't

If so

Why talk about loaded sticks

Or trips with loaded bricks 

That's a farce 

Raw facts i steady murk

City vampires got a money thirst

Gritty artist with the hunger

That noise up the road

Ain't thunder

It aint thunder

Raw facts in every verse

City vampires got a money thirst

Gritty artist with the hunger

Cold world

We're just flesh and a number

Flesh and a number
