HELICOPTER MIND

Dead eye stare
I wanna rip out my hair
So much for following the straight line
At my end with a bellly full of wine
Sickness leaves me
while I bend my spine
Bones calloused and churning
im feelin the grind
Sick and tired
more dead than alive
An unfortunate end, all the money that we spend
Goes around comes around, I wish a had a friend
Grasping for human connection
But Helicopter mind repels the affection
I can’t slow down my infection
I need a correction
I need your attention
Couldn’t make up my mind
self sabotage all the time
My mistake, no engine break
all the shit we gotta take
Ask me for forgiveness
But helicopter mind repels my intention
I want to repair your mechanism
I need a new algorithm
I’m all out of wisdom

FACTORY

Mom n dad workin at the factory
Life investment well I guess it better be
Something to be proud of
your blood will never see
They just wanna see ya live the American dream
Well that dreams got no promises
Do you know what I mean
Go to school and start a business
I don’t think it’s for me
Line them up
For a life of labor
It can be so bliss
When you’ve lost your inspiration
Time to take a piss
Pushed the lines
got left behind
Lower class bullshit dream in your eyes
Always question bein one of the good guys
Goes to show even good boys will need an alibi

Theres nothing worth my effort to be gained in here
so why do I linger waiting for the end to near
I rather drive my truck a thousand miles an hr
Manifest an apocalyptic end
Maybe a meteor shower
It’s better to burn out than to fade away
Look at the turn out it’s my lucky day
I’m so frustrated w your current craze
I’m so agitated set myself ablaze
Even the kindest commit actions that are cruel
To think otherwise is to be the biggest fucking fool
There’s no such thing as someone completely kind and pure
Fairy tales told to feed into ideals that just aren’t true
There will always be a cop to shoot a bullet or two
Well Maybe I have had few
but that’s between me and you
A knife pressed against my belly I was just in middle school
There will always be someone to take advantage of you
It’s no exaggeration when I say that our annihilation is on the way
So enjoy your simulation and remember have a nice day :)
The core is molten hot metal kinda like the sun
But before we’re all said and done
I just wanna have a little dumb fun

RODENT SUICIDE

Rodent suicide
the intention is true
It’s what separates them from You
Running in place is all they can do
parallel in this existence
But we’ll never cross paths
They can show you the beauty
and the terror in the past
Central detachment
Secular streams
Propaganda not permanent
Disassembled on the screens
I’ve got their blood in my lungs
Problem child needs therapy
Not on the internet enough
Irrelevant as can be

SNAKE/SCENE POLITICS
02:07
|
|||
|
A Pack of cackling hyenas
Disingenuous smile
How can you put one foot in-front of another
And all of the while
Living like that
Following each other around
With your stupid excuses
To cover up your mistakes
Incapable of dealing w regret
And all the while
Point your fingers
somewhere else
I’m sick of your style
Is it really all an act?
The latest fashion accessory?
But I guess it just might be
absolutely necessary
All in order To protect
The serpents soft belly
I guess it just might be necessary
When you think things are
All too very scary
Bloodthirsty attention diverging
Feast on your distractions
Eat reality alive

AWFUL THINGS

I’m so lucky to be
As damaged as can be
Yeah
But I channel the energy
And i set it free
A shot in the dark
A wounded coyote
Some twisted branches
Agony
An open sky above
Pinholes in a thin black sheet
Let it breathe
I wish to be empty
Why won’t u let me
I wish to be empty
But they won’t let me go
How awful it must be
to discuss the broken pieces
Ill show you where they are
but they won’t budge from there
The flesh and years wasted
I’ll Return the favor
I’m sick of the flavor
Said me to the creator
I couldn’t save her
No we couldn’t save her
I’m trying to relate more
I’m trying to release her

YOUTHFUL DECAY

Blessed w the curse
Of youthful decay
so much in our way
Get away from the rot
All the time that is bought
Make use of it now
There’s no one around
Pain above your brow
Depressed like a clown
Beat it into the ground
That Shit eating grin
When you walk right past him
Do you count your teeth at night?
do you pass your tongue over them
Reliving the moments when you shoulda have stayed away from them
Youthful decay
I’m not fading away
Youthful decay
I’m not the same as them
Youthful decay
Endure myself everyday
Youthful decay
I’m not fading away
I don’t wanna waste away
I’m Pushin for a better way
You say I only spend my days
Drinking booze and doin cocaine
can’t you see I’m drowning in pain
It’s great that you’re doing just fine
I wanna leave something behind
I just gotta/wanna get outta my mind
Out of my mind
Wasted time
Yeah you think you’re doin fine
Your so fucking blind
We’re living on purchased time
What are you doin
Open your fucking eyes
Clock is ticking
Stop wasting my fucking time
I paid for this and all of it is mine
I’m done wasting my time
Clock is ticking all the fucking time
1 2 3 4 5 6 60 sec in a min

I’m broke I don’t have any money
It’s a joke it ain’t even funny
I’m fucked up and I’ll spend all my money On coke
yeah I’m a dummie but I know
These hoes they don’t love me
I said no I won’t go across the street
you should know Don’t even wanna see
Guess I’ll go Someone I gotta meet
I’m alone Don’t wanna hear you speak
Even on the phone
I’ll see ya next week
I’m on a roll
I don’t wanna take a seat
Just go home
I don’t wanna sleep
Cuz I’m loose and I’m the danger breed
I’m on a roof dont even feel my feet
They’re aloof not my fault they’ll never see
Drop my guard catch their disease
Not the guy I wanna be
I wanna get wild only for a lil while
I know I’m grown but I wanna be a child
Angry cuz you ain’t got any
Style style style
Miss me w that bullshit by about a mile
Tell yourself I care
You’re just in denial
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
I got the mic so shut the fuck up for a lil while
Now I think I’m ready
Now I think I need rest
Body is feeling heavy
Only I know what’s best

Tell the surgeon I want to freeze my stupid grin
Id like it to assume a fixed position while I face the trouble that I’m in
While you’re at it make me stable
and empty my Tin
Tell the surgeon I want to freeze my stupid grin
Id like it to assume a fixed position while I face the trouble that I’m in
While you’re at it make me stable
and empty my Tin
A child in the forest
I thought I heard ya scream
Turn yourself around now
And travel up that stream
All that gin u bathed in
well It couldn’t keep your body clean
Out here in the country
Well it Could all just be a dream
