jory canfield – the show lyrics

hi, i’m jay the poet and i’ll be your opening act for tonight. i hope you enjoy my performance, and thank you

[verse 1]
it’s quite a quarrel that is written with a quail feather
seeing my own death is something that i’d rather – not do
see i feel a ton of nausea in my mind
and i think with my stomach
if you look close you’ll see that i’m hungry all the time
half my mind wants to search for many things to find
for knowledge, for power, for s-x, for food
caffeine, wifi, music and some rest, it’s true
i don’t know where i’m going, i don’t know where i’ve been
i’m just walking ‘round town like i’m the blind, deaf kid
but feel as if i’m all seeing like the ultimate being
searching for a body with a proper fit
am i a god among mortals, or a man among gods?
to really answer life’s riddles, you must break this facade
look at where we reside, we try to live in the now
but it’s through enlightenment that your soul will be found
white lies told by white men with white hair
black ice making black cars crash right there
gray skies letting clear rain hit my face
but when it’s gone there’s a rainbow that’ll take it’s place
a face made of clouds that are raining down
joy’s a needle in a haystack that may never be found
see, round and round in this life we go
you don’t think about answers when you’re shoveling snow
so don’t tell me about the life i live
i’m not just sure, i’m positive
that the negatives in this world are fully unmatched
compared to the good unlocked through rap
or music in general, my thoughts are seminal
and nothing else can replace that
you only have one thought? i have several
‘cause the way i think don’t have a format

thank you. thank you. um.. now i’d like to welcome our main act to the stage. they’re a great band, great friends of mine, please welcome them. i’m gonna head out now. peace

[verse 2]
you’ve thrown everything away
art is all that’s left
you may have lived today
but you’d be happier in death
should you go home to rest?
nah, why not drink first
should you go to confess? no
go and quench your thirst
walk to the liquor store, you live life in denial
ethanol in your veins flows like the nile
only two miles home, you think you can drive
for you, being sober is the other side
feels like a long ride home, are you dreaming now?
it shouldn’t take so long to find your way uptown
you hear cries and see flames in this winter night
everything turns black and closer comes a light

[outro x4]
closer comes a light, closer comes a light
everything turns black and closer comes a light
