seers pupil - pretty penny lyrics

[verse 1: seers]
bum on the curb tried to ask me for a cent, i was in the car blasting this piano riff
he said something like
you know man, i didn’t always look like this, matter fact
i even had nice things, my appearance might be a bit frightening
because of that most despise me but
even when i was a young casanova, never good lookin’ but i had mi casa and a ‘nova
it was perfect, for me and my family of three
had a lot goin’ for me if i’da stayed on my feet
souls planted in the ground like the cemetery
back to my story i was young and newly wed and married
to my highschool sweetheart, two years out
both devout, christians yeah we thought, true love is what we got
there i was hitched, tied the knot, age 20
thought i had nothing to lose until the world took it from me

[excerpt 1: seers]
and he looked up, i don’t even think he knew i was listening
he said “you care if i keep going or you want me to leave?”
it’s not every day someone will listen to me speak
society has taught you there’s nothing for free
i don’t want a pretty penny, that’s a pretty petty penny
but a penny for your thoughts is plenty enough money for me
it’s how i pay for my therapy
so i didn’t know what to do, i was like yo you wanna get something to eat
seemed like a nice dude, non-threatening, so he went on..

[verse 2]
i was in college, it was my junior year, studying to be an engineer
side job and future career, scouts honor
could’ve swore what i endured would help prepare
myself did i mention my name is isaac
sorry dude i skipped some things, and my wife’s named eliza
she was 8 months pregnant with my little boy cyrus
so the sight is, our tiny apartment off campus my wife is
ampin’ throwin tantrums but i knew it was the hormones
i ain’t panic she can’t stand it when i try to calm her down so
i just sat there
silent, she claims i’m always out
when she knows that i’m at my cl-sses then to work then back to the house
i’m taking hit after hit, punch after punch, there’s venom packed in every syllable
just the thought is poisonous, she said well what
i sat there stunned
she said i’m done like she always does, i tried to say i love you babe
but she was already outside taking off
by the time i got to the door she started my car then took it out of park
shadows came over my future, and all i could do was watch
wish i could ask that truck driver the reason he couldn’t stop
i was right there on the spot
no more picnics for isaac because i eat in the dark
never questioned god’s existence till he tore up my heart
the only question i got, is if you think that’s wrong or not
