Streets lined up on a platter
Tracks up an down the leather
Each step as light as a feather
soon I'll feel better
I should know better

All around me are zombies
What's up what's good homie
What do you want and of course I mean whatchu need
Cause God knows life ain't **** without gas to bleed

******* I must be cursed cause the sun ain't been out in days
And you know what they say crime pays
Pays for these cuts these scars things that stays with me for the rest of my days

Working every ******* day and that's the way it'll ******* stay
Cause when the work stops is when the reaper takes me away
I hear the worms crawling in the dirt in my brain everyday


Kidneys been bleeding for days that's how I know I'm still alive
Too many days fading into grays not even gonna ask why
This is life nonstop horror and another week's pay
Boots on again watching the bodies hang and sway

So pathetic to worship a ****** ******
Rather live in the **** and **** than live just
Republicans worship an antichrist

If empathy is a sin I'd rather be the devil
Your all hateful and stupid and not on the level
Science and acceptance built us but you want a hovel

I know happiness it smells like gasoline
Washes away sadness faster than saline

They say they love me but I can't believe a word
The words choke around my neck like a cord
And this time it holds tight
Death it embraces me tight
Feels nice like rest after a long night


I see myself splattered on every wall
Visions of a body hanging till the fall
Don't wanna die
Didn't wanna be born
So I practice a necktie
Wonder when it'll be worn

Bend my spine like its the truth
Cut a vein if the blood will soothe
Cracked our code kicking teeth

End of an era watching the planet bleed

Empathy is cruelty and the people are broken
The end of civility for digital tokens
No sanity everyone must be joking

End of an era sowing dead seed

Love the hate the worst of us take control
Look to the state they're out on patrol
Sealed our fate they're taking our soul

Been havin’ sports car dreams
Ridin’ in a Volvo, blowin’ steam
Livin’ the crème de la crème

Till I wake up to the nightmare
Tired of wakin’ up poor, I swear
Gotta sleep, dream of somewhere
Somewhere… somewhere…

Man, somewhere else is where I wanna be
Reachin’ for green like my fool Gatsby
Every comedown, letdown, settledown leaves me empty
A fog of smoke from the green I burn, who do I be?
And who was it that I be? Had to have been somebody

Been slowly dyin’, workin’ nine to five
How long can I last? Maybe nine or five
Don’t know if I got the pay needed to live
Gotta get this bread if I wanna live

Takin’ a stride, lost in the forest, lookin’ for somewhere to apply
Then again, might just burn the forest, float on a smoky sky

I’m livin’ this life, strugglin’ against the current, currently
Workin’ this job, strugglin’ weekly, concurrently for currency
Grindin’ my life away, gonna end up passin’ away silently
Wanna burn fast and hard, a pyre burnin’ brilliantly

But I’m just slow-burnin’ embers, no fuel for the fire
Gotta get some more, need someone to send me a wire
These burnin’ embers are goin’ out, the light’s gettin’ dimmer
Drownin’ in darkness—never been a good swimmer
No food in the pantry, man, I’m gettin’ ******’ thinner
Keep competin’ for the prize, but never been a winner
Can’t win the rigged matches unless I become a sinner
Gotta be criminal just to get myself some dinner
Still believe I can make it—call me the deluded dreamer

Gotta try and make it, live my fantasy
Or die locked in a penitentiary
For the crime of chasin’ my rhapsody
Probably just end up another casualty
