lyrics

The prodigal Patron Saint returns to the land of the ancient and graceful
Save for the objects that paint his paces
Embracing strange times on stranger tides
Rub the lamp and watch your hindsight intensify
Pull the chord and light the room with many wishes prayers and boons
I’m a peer-uplifter, heart gear-shifter with a forklift for my mental state
The pencil always breaks at the start of the day
Been known to drown trying to swallow the dock and the bay
That’s how much joy my corpse can contain
Always wild, never called upon to stray, only summoned for the merriment
Coordinating outfits with rebels rocking cowlicks in a matrix sanitarium
So we throw her in reverse and we clicked into the slip
Slide guilt and pride aside to sit her easy on the tip
BearTooth Collective counting coinage by the candle’s light
Poised to prove a problem to those demons known for ankle-biting
Thank your lovers once and thank your haters twice
Grilled tomatoes with the broccoli & rice
Ignorance is bliss but blissful ignorance ain’t nice
And theres a knight in my backyard stabbing the ground with his sword
Trying to render my soil barren by killing off the worms
But luckily I’ve trained them all in classical ballet and they keep dancing ‘round the blade as the night returns to day
Like Clefairy on the mountainside
Summoning the solar beings to crash down from the sky
All of this to speak of the persistence of existence
There’s old niggatry at work
My bones don’t grow just to groan
I made my peace with the gold that I sold to greet fabled kings who’s palaces are never clean
Too much blood & cum on the coin from the loins of a bastardous flesh
But peep, the beard connects
Continents of Knowledge that survived the upteenth apocalypse just to remain incongruent with the way things ended
Eclipsing the Eye of the Fates
I remain seated in place even as the seasons fold, old in their age
The pains of playing with time and space include a mighty fall from grace
De-industrialized stasis got niggas sleeping in lies and lost in the faces broken mirrors created
Deep fakes & doppelgängers
A steep trace to topple dangers leads to sweepstakes for power rangers fighting dummies with the putty brains to quell an imminent doom
No caps for the fuddy-duddies who rap whack with cruddy styles that bounce back like a bunch of buffoons
Baboons crooning in an echo-chamber off the zoomies like a kitten in the nip who’s always looking for a fix
But if you come to the crib there’s always food for the hungry
Greens, fruit, eggs, meat & a bucket of grits
No need to pay me money, I just pass the blessings on and don’t get taken for no dummy whilst I sip on the piff and slip back into the mist
