Transmitting live from the cusp of extinction Look you in the eyes like, "Fuck was you thinking?" I'm kinda feeling like there's nothing left to defend But if we keep it Franklin, that's just another weekend I guess karma really gives you what you paid for 'Cause AmeriKKKa got blood in her carburetor I'm in the mountains hiding out from the park rangers Something 'bout putting a slug in your heart chamber If I ain't the one that wrote it, then I quoted it Ipso facto, I overlooked your ownership Kicked that back door to open it, broke it in Hit those bad notes and drove it like I chauffeured it S'posed to get me on a guest list, but I'm skeptical In my profession don't nobody act professional Decided I'd arrive a little bit ahead of schedule And started up a heavy metal band with the devil, it goes I been working my whole life to touch the ceiling Don't even know if I'd recognize the feeling But I been working my whole life I been working my whole life to touch the ceiling Don't even know if I'd recognize the feeling But I been working my whole life And it's a viking ship, there's no breakfast And it's the life we live, it's so precious, yeah SongtexteAnd don't pretend that you was over our heads if You know you never meant for us to catch those references (Right?) And just so I can understand Nobody in command'll willingly give up their upper hand Unless suddenly their gun is jammed And you pry it from their motherfucking hands (Right?) And I been working my whole life afraid of the clock And I know that ain't right 'cause I can't make it stop Gotta show up and finish the shift The baby told me being present is a gift And maybe that's why you refuse to fall asleep Probably keep it moving 'til the heart stops respondin' to the beat But my brain's still self-conscious Like I coulda cut my losses if I would've acknowledged I was exhausted 'Cause I been working my whole life to touch the ceiling Don't even know if I'd recognize the feeling But I been working my whole life I been working my whole life to touch the ceiling Don't even know if I'd recognize the feeling But I been working my whole life And I dunno if this is how it's supposed to feel How will I know if this is how it's supposed to feel? And I dunno if this is how it's supposed to feel How will I know if this is how it's supposed to feel? [?][3:43] Aus Songtexte Mania
