I am a simplistic man. Searching for powers greater than my opposition claiming me to be an explicit man. I said I was a simple man. Were you listening? Did you hear? This is my last chance, my last year to win over heart and soul, to broaden horizons and achieve my goal. But I fear that I’m losing control. This engine is hot and tired of coal. To this machine how can I console? Am I empathic? Do I really care? They need despair for me to repair. I cannot lose. I do not know how. I must fool them into loving me someway, somehow. Align the science that is mine. Prepare the letters for me to sign People can be guided when blind. Unite them with division. I want to be seen on every television. Broadcast falsehood for the greater good. Tell me I’m wrong.Make it impossible to follow along. And in the end I will win. So let the game begin.

I hear there is a show so lets give it a go we’ll meet at the spot at the coffee shop Meet at the spot at the coffee shop depending how it goes, I wont even bring but they don’t even know until they hear me sing if I wasn’t there would they even care? I’ll break out the rock at the coffee shop It wasn’t all that bad. All the fun we had, its like we were gods its like we are guns Meet at the spot at the coffee shop depending how it goes I won’t even bring but they don’t even know until they hear me sing if I wasn’t there would they even care I’ll break out the rock at the coffee shop

I just got my stimulus check. Filed for unemployment don’t know how long this gonna last so I got to enjoy it whats happening in America cant really ignore it its hard to tell are trying to rebuild or destroy it Im out with my business I’m in public with a mask on everybody satisfied up until that cash gone we’re gonna start a riot gonna break into your glass home we stand up for justice but a neck is what you stand on I’m sick of it man Im tired its making me uninspired you living the good life while Im steady putting in the hours I’m essential but still feel like Im doing shit for free getting paid minimum wage saying that you need me I see it on TV talking about them vaccines for COVID-19 they fake if you ask me I'm trying to go out and live this shit just ain't what it is I'm scared to have some kids through all of this violence looking for the sunshine but its looking like this shit is hard to come by can we heal when the world shows no love its feeling like a dream and I want to wake up fuck all the politicians fuck all the pedophiles don't even call them christians corona got you nervous gotta keep it six feet last time I checked thats only a rule if you deceased we cant get no fucking peace. we just dying in the streets purposely its in your face they not trying to be discrete please open your third eye i dare you to take a peek you watching this fake news but its really Hollywood if they tell you kill yourself mother fuckers probably would then again maybe you should if you take that vaccine ain't no monsters in the dark stuck in between the two go for red go for blue real gang territory this the land you walking through

Come, enter my chamber my honest disclaimer I’m a perversion of nature come, see my labor my reach is far and wide I’m everywhere outside there's nowhere to hide Come, look at them resist my threat will persist I’m the antagonist Come, feel their despair my subjects unaware I’m in the air Just like confetti
5.
You can pay, you can play and stay a little while in the sky with the man with electric hands on the hill lies your fill of the gravel and grill go to sleep. calm your mind and you will find he’s the man He’s the alright he’s the lurk in the night the shelter from the rain he’s the dirt rider the all nighter He’s the kill animal he’s the all but he's the man waiting for the lights waiting on the curb I’m waiting for the curb for the collector he's alright he's the man with the miracle in his eyes he's hunting me down and waiting for my lights

All the girls, keep on and color your hands waiting for our world that's stolen all the boys, stay strong and don't fall astray

Every time you come around me babe ice just be flowing through my veins yeah, I know how you like it all nice when you want to feel nice but you used to say don’t think this shit defines me every time you come and find me girl we get fucked up I spark it up and then we’re steady vibbing you come right back to my place you seem comfortable I ain’t got no problem with it you live right down the road these walls got me thinking
8.
Everytime I blaze I might Every single day I might all the time I waste I might be wasting time without love

Trapped in oblivion the enemy is hard to find illusion is what they want that weaken us until we’re blind It won’t be long til the damage is done Cry for help and show our tears further down their path stay at home controlled by fear nowhere left to go from here lately freedom feels crazy consequently feeling lazy sedately feeling hazy lately freedom is safety consequently crazy after all freedom is...

Welcome to the fight keep my heart in tacked never gave it to a girl who ever gave it back come into the light and set it all to black Having you tonight is like a heart attack. love you feels so right Everyones feeling so right now lines in the sand is all all I see theres no time for a fight now look around and tell me what you see all I see is hate all we need is love look a stranger in the eyes and just say whats up you should shoot them a smile you should give them a hug never know when a stranger is giving up They say we need creation not distruction however, destroying something together can be creative.

Baby I’m getting by by myself like you never been so Baby I love it when you get the chance but I’m jumping for your bones Baby I’ve gotten by by myself but I’ll never be fooled Baby when I’m a catch you long out I’m going to get you back in the flood

I know what is right and what is wrong my morality is tenacious and strong what happens when I make mistakes? What happens when a rule breaks? My fidelity remains forceful and tight I am comforted knowing I am always right. Evil can never be seen as evil until ignorance is seen as ignorance

Looks like I’m getting drunk again Cause I’m just remembering her face looks like I’m falling for it again it’s like she don’t know her place she had blue eyes so easy and she had dispair she wore it everywhere but I did not care looks like I’m lost in the funk again I’m trying to forget her face Who says you cant go home again deeper into this place I’ve fallen out of love with you and I don’t know where to go I don’t know what to do I feel like I’m losing my self Looks like I’m getting drunk again I’m lost in her eyes
