This little electronic corner of the world We write about perms and fades and smoking J's Instead of vision and living and learning faith Creating something to remember takes a backseat to taking drugs to forget your failed attempts    And in contempt you tell yourself you'll try harder                    Get smarter       And either die a martyr     Or retire the father of a son or a daughter who will live on and alter the empire you built or the entire world which we live            But you acknowledge none of this will happen if you don't try *And then you get high And do exactly that*      And pass the time between coming down and lighting up by writing about perms and fades and smoking J's

Perms, Fades and J's
This little electronic corner of the world We write about perms and fades and smoking J's Instead of vision and living and learning faith Creating something to remember takes a backseat to taking drugs to forget your failed attempts    And in contempt you tell yourself you'll try harder                    Get smarter       And either die a martyr     Or retire the father of a son or a daughter who will live on and alter the empire you built or the entire world which we live            But you acknowledge none of this will happen if you don't try *And then you get high And do exactly that*      And pass the time between coming down and lighting up by writing about perms and fades and smoking J's
