Straight to the chase you’ve been running from allah
The wrinkles near you eyes are from the strain of your past
Silly little man you’ve been robbed of your innocence
Not even art could protect you from the dark.
In a instance, saw your whole life crushed it was menacing
Spent the whole time staunched in indifference
Blank stares like fuck is this happening
Who in your past came a robbed you of your worth
Tears in your eyes only thicken up the dirt
You sound like you crying when you’re singing all those songs
Silly little man don’t pretend like you’re innocent
Go blame your past when you break another heart.
Where’s the bassinette for the stillbirth
it’s your fault all the grief that you caused her
All the guilt trips, pointing fingers
Should be ashamed of all the names that you called her.
Imma change don’t desert me imma change
I’m moving forward ‘fore the demons come in range.
The inertia, you say you’re moving but your place is unchanged.
*Fighting The Thoughts In Your Head*
Look at the shots, I just be calling it.
Too much ego, I’m bout to fall in it.
You do a little, I just do all of it.
She came to the crib with them pills and I did all of it.
Can’t get out, stuck in my head
I’m bout to run, run to the bread
I you try to run it again, then imam leave him for dead
I feel like Yvonne Rainer, dancing on his grave.

Back up back up, Zoro going off on the beat
Energy cook a nigga to a feast, welcome to the belly of the beast
Back back up Zoro don’t have no fears
Energy raise a nigga from the dead, straight from the spirit to your ears
Back up, likkle man look at me
Lock into my eyes that’s pain, baring that all on beat
Talk about quid pro quo, think of the return that’s sweet
Give the world all my heart, give a man all that cheese
Whatever the cost
Come what may imma fuck shit up
With all of my strength
All of my love
All of my depth
two two’s after everything’s said and done we’re all gonna be dead
So before I’m gone give me what I’m worth or I’m coming for you next
Back up back up, while the earth’s still turning in peace
How am I gonna thinking about climate change when the next man’s tryna kill me?
I was birthed in a city where the stuff you in tires and burn you with kerosene
We are the anthropocene
Back up Back up Zoro going off on the beat
Energy cook a nigga to a feast, welcome to the belly of the beast
Back back up Zoro don’t have no fears
Energy raise a nigga from the dead, straight from the spirit to your ears

I followed Yvonne’s lead, her awkward movements
A formless dance that interprets life oh so well
I can’t seem to shake the darkness
My mind’s wrenched by an impending doom
But still I dance to the songs I’ve sung
Accused of wrongs by some I’ve loved
How can I can about all your judgement, whilst the whole world is ending?
And just like that we’ve all lost control, control!
Every time I reached out, I felt so insecure.
I know that I’m not perfect at all
I’m ok with it we’re all full of shit
How many lies do you tell yourself?
What were things that you had to say?
Why did you care so much?
Oh now you’re giving up?
Hindsight is 2020, a stark year for our generation
Death from a cold, lives torn apart
The worlds at stand still we’re all in the dark
PANIC!!!!!!!
Well we’re here now
Well aware now
There’s no fear now
Only joy now
That’s the strange dance of our reality

DEATH BY DIMITRI

LYRICS:
This is a song about our existence; a lazy stampede and it’s marching towards
Death, like left right left, like left right left
This is a song about our existence; a lazy stampede and it’s marching towards
Death
It gets real when the vale comes off, dear Dimi shot me straight out of the grid
False prophets keep misguiding us, can’t cope without their medicine
Do this do that work hard, get a job have kids die off
Bleak truths overwhelm us
Heart sings pure proverbs, out mouth sounds sacred tongues
To those who walk a higher path, dear Dimi brings us nearer source.
Breathe in breathe out stay calm!
How you doing? Como estas? Hold on!
Great changes are upon us
These are all my inhibitions, a pranging stampeded and we’re marching towards
Death! like left right left, Death! like left right left
Abstract noises echo through, the boundless caverns in the mind
The soul dances in a pleasure dome, a feat you should see with your eyes.
