lyrics
By this time tomorrow it won’t be on the news.
You’ll barely even notice cus’ these blows don’t leave a bruise.
There’s a war inside, don’t try to hide it, but it’s not like you got shot.
Just keep on trudgin’ forward when trudgin’s all you got.
The population’s messy without a second thought.
It’s easy to keep ignorant when you know you won’t be caught.
No excuse, so lose your noose. There’s no one gotta pay.
Toss your scale aside; there’s nothing for you to weigh.
If there’s a prize for being idle you’d win the golden calf.
You’re as fickle as a godhead but at least you made ‘em laugh.
Just answer more, unlock your door, let the spirit in.
Cus if it’s good enough to drink ‘em, it’s good enough for sin.
Like a kid fighting with giants
I refuse to be compliant.
When my stone is flung I’ll cry,
“Fe, Fi, Fo—fuck it, I’m done.”
Room for improvement, I got a house full.
I keep looking in my wallet for my ID and change
But it came out in the wash, now my white clothes are stained.
You’ll barely even notice cus’ these blows don’t leave a bruise.
There’s a war inside, don’t try to hide it, but it’s not like you got shot.
Just keep on trudgin’ forward when trudgin’s all you got.
The population’s messy without a second thought.
It’s easy to keep ignorant when you know you won’t be caught.
No excuse, so lose your noose. There’s no one gotta pay.
Toss your scale aside; there’s nothing for you to weigh.
If there’s a prize for being idle you’d win the golden calf.
You’re as fickle as a godhead but at least you made ‘em laugh.
Just answer more, unlock your door, let the spirit in.
Cus if it’s good enough to drink ‘em, it’s good enough for sin.
Like a kid fighting with giants
I refuse to be compliant.
When my stone is flung I’ll cry,
“Fe, Fi, Fo—fuck it, I’m done.”
Room for improvement, I got a house full.
I keep looking in my wallet for my ID and change
But it came out in the wash, now my white clothes are stained.
