about

death played in the crib with me. we were well greeted.

lyrics

(intro)

Some people fantasize about what they saw. But I have no illusions about it. I saw death. He was nut hulking, he was small and patient, and had long eyes in the summer. He enjoyed company and rumors and strolled in semi-circles around the empty lots, flaunting his patience, showing his face proudly in the naked light. He looked at me once with a grin of half-knowing, then sauntered on his way, to do his work.

(chorus)

Violent lights,
Noise pollution,
Violet,
Violet,
Lights,
Noise pollution
Violet,
Violet
Lights...

Never told me what the lean does.
Never told me what the fiend does.
Never really told me bout my kingdom.
Just out here trying to chase a buzz.
What you expect? Terrain made to devour us,
afraid to empower us. Man, I'm feeling powerless.
And thus informing my ability, deformed agility to ponder critically,
acting out of futility. Under them incandescent street lamps,
false masculinity, you what's the remedy?
Sirens blaring, my souls aglow,
staring at stains,
scarlet blood fades to indigo,
blood fades to indigo,
blood fades to indigo...

(chorus)

Verse:

Yo, can we find love here?
Is it underneath the back porch
swept between the cracks of a trapped choice,
I want to see my options clear,
If there's only negativity and violence, shit I'll live a life of silence,
exchanging my love for non-compliance,
a quiet shift, I went from city to secluded island, inside myself,
no one could reach me, lost the teaching touch,
we're all identical, fading diamonds lost in the rough,
becoming minerals,
sirens blaring, my souls aglow,
staring at stains,
scarlet blood fades to indigo,
blood fades to indigo,
blood fades to indigo...

(chorus)

I was born.
A pebble.
A pestilence.
The sickness
in the rock,
it formed
a skeleton.
Crystalized thoughts,
adorned,
with melanin.
The sands
in the clock,
They tick
and they tock,
ya dig?
