a.d. carson – golden silence [“live” from saas-fee, switzerland] lyrics

Loading...

“if you like metaphor or prefer literal
i’m from illinois, and i rhyme like the first syllable—
sick, and i’m nice, hospitable
ask and i give—16 of a hot spittable

the hospital operates as a symbol for
my temperament, delivering sentiments you were wishing for…
or maybe it’s the dope you were itching for
twitching for, took it too fast, now you’re living for

jungle fever’s gator; new jack city’s pookie;
kick fly sh-t—don’t blame rappers for trying to shoo me
truly unruly, live like a movie and keep it goonie
think like malcolm little, but say it like paul mooney

who is he really? ask me that question; i find it silly
but i respond, then i keep on, like i’m looking for the real me…
searching for meaning, find what i’m needing, living per diem
seek and you’ll see him; don’t and you won’t; i know the feeling

he speaks
/and it’s/ less abstract than a backpack on a mountain—
the one i’m gone tell it on, whispering, not shoutin’. i’m cool
and if i’m cool, then i’m cold, and these cold words
are code words that you see in/action like no verbs
i’ll wait

distraction’s a master—an old game
the type that has the player embracing his own chains

if silence is golden, then you can hold it
know it, know the way to expose it and still condone it [or own it]

but it’s too easy to think it before you blink
let your eyes close, then deny you were ever sleep
or convince yourself that your dream is literally your p-ssion
wake up, and never remember, like history never happened

to auction on blocks is square dealings
then we all bow down to say prayers in square buildings
man made in his image—trying to k!ll his god:
a paradox in a box, like phil and oz.”
