time - d line blues lyrics

it was another normal thursday, i wanted coffee in the worst way
when the sip hits my lips i got to spit what the verse say
i saw a man playing a trombone and singing on the corner
he recited poetry, no one response like a coroner
i saw an old man with tremors looking out the window of the bus
i saw billboards and commercials act as spectacles for l+st
i saw a car crash, i heard fate laugh
i saw the geese land in the platte river with a splash
i saw a woman have a seizure, i saw a kid that wouldn’t leave her
i saw a boy with downs syndrome holding hands with his teacher
i saw dust on justice, and news with no substance
i saw a cop beating a man as he busted his lip
i saw a couple break up, the man started to cry
i saw graffiti on a wall, it said ready to die
i heard ambulances as i saw death dancing
chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom

it was another average tuesday, i was taking the train home
fresh from the airport, my brain started to roam
a man followed me and asked me for some change
i gave him what i could before they kicked him off the train
a woman came on the rail with 2 kids and a stroller
the businessmen looked away and wouldn’t move over
i got up and gave her my seat, she sat down and smiled
i wondered why these suit and ties wouldn’t move for a child?
the train stopped on 16th, a blind man came on
he sat down and started to sing a paul robeson song
the kid next to me didn’t hear it, he was texting
the man’s voice humbled me i was grateful for the lesson
the girl behind us was on the phone and started to cry
the old woman stared out the window, i saw the struggle in her eyes
i heard ambulances as i saw death dancing
chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom

it was just another average, cliché wednesday
i had my notebook on the train, so listen to what the pen say
i saw a man with a sunken face grinding his t++th
i saw a woman thumbing her rosary filled with grief
i saw a drone, i saw a foreclosed home
i saw a poem in it all as they listened on my phone
i saw a dead pigeon, i saw oil in the sewer
a bee landed on the window, every year i see fewer
i saw the police approach a man with their guns aimed
i saw a kid tagging a train, searching for fame
i saw struggle in it all as i wrote away the pain
the windshield wipers squeaked as the sky leaked rain
i saw a dead dog lying in the middle of the road
i saw an elderly woman crying another story untold
i heard ambulances as i saw death dancing
chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom

it was another normal monday, i was sitting by the park
sipping on some coffee when a dog started to bark
2 men were fighting, a drug deal gone bad
they ran away from the cops, later a junkie found the stash
i saw the cops telling a homeless man to move on
i see handcuffs not homes, this scene is all wrong
i see a blind mother pulling a stroller down broadway
another strong woman with a bullet proof soul like sade
i saw a dead cat in the gutter, no life in its eyes
i see dreamers on the corner like monarch b+tterflies
i see a mother in sanctuary, separated from her kids
i see no justice, they make it illegal to live
i see ice outside and i’m not talking about frozen water
i’m talking bout the ice that’ll separate you from your daughter
i heard ambulances as i saw death dancing
chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom
