Brick-wall lobotomies Self inflicted Hard Head full of rocks Cracked into sand mixed into mortar And The school of hard knocks Is just you breaking yourself Rock tumbler thoughts Chisel questions on diamonds But any answer is too hard for anyone to write it Sinking sand And rock steady But the stone is too heavy And it keeps rolling back down The hill to wear it started If you're Sisyphus it's your Hades' Tartarus But since you're Atlas it's the whole world to you Stalactite tears They've been falling for a while Tear stream Grand Canyons eroded into your cliff-stone-face A mask of jade Said you were okay But now all you can do is bring The rock-wall to your face But if you climbed it You'd only see the other side of the mountain But it's better than stoning yourself Unless you'd rather dig yourself a hole and stay well-grounded Be mindful of the Earth benders Cause lead mined and pistol fired Makes a mind worse for the better Brain benders With bullet senders Brain blender bullet benders Stick to bricks Hay-and-straw-made bricks You can build yourself up From dirt and twigs But when they try to blow it away, You are the brick wall That they are leaning (concussed) against Knocked out Stone cold Rock on Roll steady Dig deep and let the moss grow When you start to feel heavy I see you in the block of marble David **** your Goliath With a sling and riverbed stone But don't let Medusa freeze you up Or there will be hell, fire, and brimstone to pay And if you win There is a statue waiting for you
