tom (emcee from australia) - show reserve lyrics

it isn’t like me to show reserve
moving slow through firsts
it’s how you cope with thirst
i let it mould these words
i mean my throats been worse
swear the smoking hurts
barely sober but i’m focused so my hopes preserved
never folded when dad died, see his ghost in my d+mn lies so my home is cursed
mum trying to call but my phones on no disturbances
because she doesn’t want to hear me slurring sh+t
throat burning like the coals inside a f+cking furnace
catch me with a herd or clique of caring motherf+ckers who aren’t concerned with appearances
flow bitter as the beer i sip
nouns and verbs i twist to help cope with the heavy load of my parent’s sin
but mama you birthed a king
so step to zac i’ll be the first to swing
just like my daddy, guess i learnt from him
should’ve learnt to swim, thrown into the deep end with the worst of men
swear the smoking hurts again

never fret a weapon when the pen can get aggressive quick
bled the ink and then behead the king, you tend to let it slip
it’s tendons getting ripped in attempt to match my lettering, you rap pathetic sh+t
if it’s sent it never misses, hit with every ring
go ahead, pretend you’re it
show up dead with necks to grip
father fed me fists so grew up fluent in defensiveness
burn the fence you sit when earth is penniless
flew into the deep end where the men can sit, seldom fled from sh+t
so go on, tell me pr+ck
ink will rip through you like some cellophane
reaper coming for me, tell him h+ll can wait
and when i get to gates make sure the devil celebrate
you f+cking featherweights, father’s hand will get a shake, set a date and let him pay me back
standing on satan’s back , landing punches, faking left
then it fades to black
and everything i’m holding bursts
him and i have both been hurt
probably should’ve shown reserve
