day 27: give in
verse 1
the bucket swung left
bumper scr-ped concrete
sparks scatter as an incomplete bomb meets the
the front yard where a buncha young champions
are honing their sk!lls holding hopes of advancing
to free education, trophies, then lottery picks
at twelve year-old true optimism exists
violent sport, supposed to be scholastic
but every time they strap up helmets get to crashing
his thought process the last few blocks of his drive
three stacks spill from the system of his ride
time waits for no one, just a regular day
on the south side of houston, making his way
can’t get into the details
let’s just say, he doesn’t clock in and work retail
police creep watch him every day
he loves annoying them by making ‘em chase
they don’t find it amusing
chorus
everywhere he goes he can feel that they’re watching
(watching)
like the paparazzi, clocking (watching)
he’s far removed from the field
like put metaphor here
all he thinks about is presence and clarity
he parked parallel
where minnesota meets beaumont
thinking about the second album
at the dungeon shooting pool on
the stereo he barely knows
what’ll happen next week
yet he has his sights set
on two years from now being
10 toes distinctly out of this sh-t
if he can live ‘til then he’ll be proud as a itch
that needs scratching, that’s when
he’ll know that he’s sick, a diagnosis of the greatest that lived
but as for now
it’s 12:17 on a thursday
the sun comes down
on the town and he’s working
taking clothes to the laundry mat
just for the irony, the 5-0 attach to it
when he takes a break around 4 for some suya
cops a twenty piece for the officers too, whaaaaat?
walks it out to them before he ate his own, grub
gentlemen you have a great day is what he told them
chorus
everywhere he goes he can feel that they’re watching
(watching)
like the paparazzi, clocking (watching)
he’s far removed from the field
like put metaphor here
