horrorshow - inside story (remix) lyrics
[intro: solo]
it’s like somethin’ just
over the horizon
wanna take a walk, maybe
see what we can find?
look long and hard
look near and far
above all things, remember
always look inside
[verse 1: jimmy nice]
listening to these words
from a citizen of earth’s surface
let’s try to rewire this circuit
surviving this circus
meanwhile, i’m striving for perfect
but homie, perfect takes practice
and i find in these days and times
i’m always so d+mn distracted
at this very moment in time
there’s an uncontacted tribe
following the footprints in the skies
out of sight of the oppressor
on the other side of this rock
is a broker smoking rock
running credit card scams
hands+free inside a tesla
and it had me thinking ’bout the route
from which i got my shoes and socks
at a time when most of us are truly
more concerned with who we not
who you got: hyde or jekyll
double+sided like a freckle
is she old? then it’s a mole
is she a cutie? then it’s a beauty spot
now, it’s apparent i done lost my
parents, and that’s pain, pain
i don’t see no point in pointing
fingers, no more blame game
hiding from my father while we
riding on the same train
even if he saw me
he won’t see me, and that’s the strange thing
so as i float upstream in hopes
i’ll one day reach the shore
only thing that i am sure of
is that we don’t know no more
from the ocean floor to the pyramid of giza
living with a bit of synesthesia
it’s all by design; mankind on a quest
for things to find; will we ever get what’s inside?
[chorus: solo]
i wasn’t there when they wrote the rules
but i do my best to follow them
in this world of machines
we starvin’ for oxygen
all i can offer is these words that i write
and i only give ’em what i know
so i give ’em what’s inside
said i wasn’t there when they wrote the rules
but i do my best to follow them
in this world of machines
we starvin’ for oxygen
where were you the day that humanity died?
searchin’ for signs of life
to reconnect with what’s inside
[verse 2: solo]
watching on through these eyes of adenosine at this sanitized planet
+n+lysing the patterns in our demise
they bought the ad sp+ce in our minds
patented it then exchanged it
for the strange trick of making us into the brands that we advertise
are we consumers or consumed?
are we doomed to be devoured
by an insatiable appetite
that can never be satisfied?
to be entombed then exhumed
offered up as a sacrifice
the data’s making it harder and harder
not to catastrophize
when somewhere there’s a room full of
men in suits looking up at rows of screens
deep in discussion of pushing the b+tton
to blow us to smithereens
meanwhile, i’m trying to get inspired
instead, i just end up in a spiral
can’t shake this discontent, things ain’t been the same since the world went viral
but we just tryna get by
and occupy our spot on the timeline
so we keep on scrolling the s+x, drugs
and violence up and down the timeline
right place at the wrong time or
wrong place at the right time
don’t know what we hoping to find, said we can’t let go, it’s like we’re looking for a lifeline
something really going wrong here
uh, what the f+ck is going on here?
thought this would be the place that i’m from
found out that i’m lost and i really don’t belong here, uh
so i’m signing off from a spot in the same feed where we live+streaming a genocide
so out of touch with what’s inside
[chorus: solo]
i wasn’t there when they wrote the rules
but i do my best to follow them
in this world of machines
we starvin’ for oxygen
all i can offer is these words that i write
and i only give ’em what i know
so i give ’em what’s inside
said i wasn’t there when they wrote the rules
but i do my best to follow them
in this world of machines
we starvin’ for oxygen
where were you the day that humanity died?
searchin’ for signs of life
to reconnect with what’s inside
