Lyrics

They spit in my mouth I just show em my teeth

The hunger was gracious

Refusal to eat

Protest in silence

No

March in the street

I was raised up by violence

My father the king

The people are starving

When will they feed

Taught em with blood

No surprise they eat meat

Selfishness is a prison

Confined to the loneliness

Like an addiction

Out of the hopelessness

Came to fruition

War of attrition

No need for additions

Chopper got attachments that came with its shipment


Flip and clip it together like lego bricks

Who cares about if it's Mercedes Benz

If it get where you're goin my brother that's it

No matter the bucket no matter the dents

That glitter ain't gold and I'll say it again

No money is power

The wealthy are fish in a pond you

Rattle the motor 'fore mowing the lawn

Snakes in the grass, step carefully on em

Boots up their asses in case they caught stalling

I'm leavin' em headless like Christopher Walkin

Put wind to your words

Confess sins at the altar

United we stand but

Divided we're conquered

Oo

Aa

Oo

Aa

Aa


I don't care if my family's proud of me

Have no fear of anyone surrounding me

I don't care if my family's proud of me

Have no fear of anyone surrounding me work


Pick and a shovel I'm diggin my trenches

Hunkering down and I'm raising defenses

Bolt action rifle, loaded ammunition

Fight for my life with a knife in the kitchen

Boiling the rice to put it with the chicken

Serving up slices to feed men and women

Metaphors laced into all my conviction

Making you swallow words that you're spitting

Won't get what I want

Won't fulfill any wishes

Splitting the wishbone

Blowing the candles

Feel like a genie

I broke out my lamp tho

Cracked the mold to my surface

Bricklaying verses

Caulking the tiles like cocking my .30

I'd do anything in my life to feel worthy

Born into mud

Doesn't mean that I'm dirty

My past isn't dead

It still lays on its gurney

The bridges I burn all remain pretty sturdy

There's stains on my shirt from new things that I'm learning

Clean my tongue with soap

Wash off suds in the morning

I'm tryna forget some old habits that hurt me

I'm bleeding worse than I intended I'm certain

All wounds self inflicted

I carry this burden alone

I carry this burden alone

I carry this burden alone


I don't care if my family's

Proud of me

Have no fear of anyone surrounding me

I don't care if my family's proud of me

Have no fear of anyone surrounding me


All the secrets I bury

Can't crack the ground

(Go ahead and lay your white flag down)

If you only apologize when it hurts

Does it even make a sound

(Go ahead and lay your white flag down)

You can see right through the diatribes

(Little white lies

They're all little white lies)

Your self respect

Was my sacrifice

(Little white lies

They're all little white lies)

In this cold world

I thought the snow was silt

And every sorry I've said

Only came from guilt

I will not bloom when the rain comes in

I will stay here as a pod and bend

I will stay here as a pod and bend

I give up

(Go ahead and lay your white flags down, now come on)

I give up

(Go ahead and lay your white flags down, now come on)

I give up

(Go ahead and lay your white flags down, now come on)

I give up, I give up, I give up, I give up, I give up


I shouldn't care if my family's proud of me

I miss a time when my friends surrounded me

I shouldn't care if my family's proud of me

I miss a time when my friends surrounded me
