scorpio p. - moonlight theory lyrics
(intro)
can i talk to y’all for a minute? lemme talk to y’all for a minute…
(verse)
as i’m lightin’ up, and throw away today’s paper
thoughts swirling ‘round as i’m talkin’ to my maker
lookin’ up in the sky, for a reason why
never mind that the times hasn’t made me any safer
wisdom is a caper
reverse caretaker
amazin’, what we do for a mule and 40 acres
in darkness you wallow, then you start to sound hollow
can’t say it with your chest when you got a pacemaker, uh
throughout the lies by design that we’re given
the world that we live in hasn’t been very forgivin’
society’s a joke, and the punch line is hope
got me feelin’ like the pope, cuz i never seem to fit in
sky’s lookin’ vivid
addin’ to the vision
stars gimme light on the path of redemption
man on the moon tryna maintain a mission
just hope a n-gg- read all the terms and conditions, like…
hook:
(hey!) no days off in this sh-t
gotta be a better way to live…
(i’m fighting for) a better life…
(so i’m working) by the moonlight…
dusk til dawn, mind over matter
i just wanna make my pockets fatter… (ha!)
waiting on a brighter day, hoping that it comes soon
so, i’mma keep workin’ by the light of the moon…
(verse)
they say that time heals all wounds…
…and a n-gg- still ain’t got his bandages
tryna navigate thru my many disadvantages
n-gg-s daydream about other people’s palaces
i’d much rather go and fix my credit, i’m an average kid
can you relate to the struggles of the ravenous?
livin’ everyday like a m-th-f-ckin’ scavenger
tryna protect your loved ones from the savages
keep the lights on any way that you can manage it
get the best advice from the vets on the benches
while they sippin’ on some old english
slammin’ dominoes on the table ‘til the sun goes down
as they share stories witchu ‘bout their times in the trenches
but, uh, it goes beyond our comprehension
while they might possess the most valuable of lessons
man on the moon, feelin’ like i’m in detention
time is the teacher, and we barely pay attention like…
(hook)
(verse)
starin’ at the idiot box
propaganda got the people all on idiot watch
so concerned with what the people we call idiots got
we’ve become our biggest nightmare, believe it or not
make it stop
cuz, i’ve seen this episode before, now it’s becoming a bore
i don’t even watch reality shows no more (naa, huh?)
tunin’ in to see who p-ssed out on the kitchen floor
while some await eviction letters being taped on their doors
can’t be the plug, when you wanna be the factory
lookin’ at your life like a series of catastrophes
want the world for free, and then pay for the galaxy
but we’ll never ever get our refund automatically
i’ve got dreams, dreams beyond measurin’
head in the clouds, tryna see what i’m missin’ and
man on the moon, tryna maintain a mission and
whatever we’re doing on earth, i hope ya listenin’, like…
(hook)
