lyrics
Evil flows through the mind in the form of a kiss
We didn’t do anything to deserve this
We’ve been it for existence
It’s just another trip to spit
Wrap your melon in a biscuit
Impossible without the liquid
But anything’s mad for this kid
I’m living in the trip every day I’m awake
Every day, play it safe, bust a rhyme, and get baked
Whatever I can do to say
I’m breaking open in a brand new way
And I’m taking you with me if you stay
It’s okay to feel ashamed
About a past that you can’t break
Away from anyway
It’s time to betray your self-hate
And make the great escape
I’m on top of the world
I can’t even lie
My life is mess
My mind just won’t die
I’ve been telling you it that has to come to this
I’m your subconscious and you know that I exist
The words you write are coming deep from within
Who’s helping out, it’s just Satan again, my friend
You take the path that leads you straight to us
You’re on an escalator, ride it out and trust
You’re heading straight into the star that just combusts
Another day to be a saint and feel injustice
This is the way you’re gonna see the other world
Through the frame that death will live and let you swirl
Like a tye dye shirt, I help you trip and blend in
I beat the path that was spoken for by them
The others, they all make pretend
That life has to end
This is not the mend
On your heart that you depended on before
It’s just a soaring revelation of where you’re going, new sensations and complications
This is an article that’s blatant
All the words are right here
I’m leading with my cheer
I can’t stop thinking about what was in that beer
It’s thanksgiving and I’m out here busting rhymes
They steal your land and brag about it all the time
I can’t relate to having a date with the unkind
I’m just unwinding myself to be finding truer times
I spit from a well that’s well defined
We didn’t do anything to deserve this
We’ve been it for existence
It’s just another trip to spit
Wrap your melon in a biscuit
Impossible without the liquid
But anything’s mad for this kid
I’m living in the trip every day I’m awake
Every day, play it safe, bust a rhyme, and get baked
Whatever I can do to say
I’m breaking open in a brand new way
And I’m taking you with me if you stay
It’s okay to feel ashamed
About a past that you can’t break
Away from anyway
It’s time to betray your self-hate
And make the great escape
I’m on top of the world
I can’t even lie
My life is mess
My mind just won’t die
I’ve been telling you it that has to come to this
I’m your subconscious and you know that I exist
The words you write are coming deep from within
Who’s helping out, it’s just Satan again, my friend
