Set the timer – lock and load
Sit back; light a smoke;
Get to see heads explode
Exclusively sponsored by a bad joke.
Motherfuckers on hands and knees
Like a rat to cheese
Chasin’ that gold –
Slidin’ into sleaze.
End up flashin’ ass on the boulevard;
Faded crease - Times getting hard
Desperate - Lookin’ to please
Need to jump on that before it gets too old
With nothin’ left.., but inflated tales to be told.
Still fiscal expertise bought no guarantees;
Leading to a drop in credit
Stuck in debit
Feeling the squeeze - lookin' pathetic;
"Ain't no tease" even without a lease
Makes the deal, Time will inherit.
But it was survived – beat the game –
Broken and cheated - memory fleeting -
Justified - Still alive.
Gonna write a book -
"Hook or Crook"
Get a new look
All it took; makin' it beautiful and bold
Confounded glory
Forget the despair; forget about the cold
Bury the contrary – flashback controlled.
Instead exposed by fame –
Now going insane
Death comes a-creepin’
Feedin’ on misery and cries
Disease-ridden - stricken - by all the lies.
Time to come clean
Crash the scene
Make for a good ending
Clinging to a dream -
Jacked -
Decayed brown from green
Sinister trickery; Bled-out treachery..,
A tragedy - Now growing obscene.
Try and go deep..,
With too much faith, must seem fake;
Escaping the humdrum; Going Comfortably Numb -
Just brings more sleep -
Pray the lord my soul to keep -
While stalking Little Bo Beep
Hungry to get some
Beat the heat
Kibble and bits - nothing but crumbs.
But it'll all get better tomorrow
All the preachers’ prayers say so
Instead to reap what is sold
Lost in heavy-scented smoke and day-glo;
Mesmerized - Hypnotized - Industrialized..,
Banging out a suspicious tempo -
Emphasized - laid down on top of below.
History teaches different
Shape-shifting intent molds the content
Laying it down like heaven sent
Leading to confused judgment
Twisted, Bent..,
And sociopath commitment.
Time to go beyond the song
Before it all went wrong..,
Before self-control - leaving only heart and soul;
Time none remember
But everyone recalls
Then consoled - Remote controlled;
Lost in space to a forgotten black hole..,
Crime and punishment
The rhythm of rhyme
Breaking down testament
Finding prime outside of time..,
Now to know
Freed from sorrow;
Remember when yesterday
Was still tomorrow? |
