about

talkin nolstagiac
same rush when I used to shoplift
sixteen, with dreams of a novelist
my friends back then, Ion talk to them
on the rising curve
I know what it's like to fly with the birds
tied to the earth but I will not serve
no waitin my turn for the life I deserve

smoke, in your eyes, cloud, your sight
they ain know how I got away, know how I got away
numb, like novacaine, in the drought, pray for rain
aint know that I copped them things, know that I popped them things

summer is short
winter is coming board up the doors
settle your debts
pay off your banners like lords in the west
look to the sea slavers and rapers who cut an dont bleed
kings in the north
cut off his head but you dont end the war
kings in the south
claiming the throne but they bloodline is foul
where is the justice
i'm waiting for judgement
I can see the starlights
drive to allston, drink the friggin bar dry
swervin in the traffic
50 on the dash

got that thin wild mercury
persians in turbans in durban tried murder me
they ion know what my life like
long hair big nose, christ like
white light white heat
up in uptown like lou reed
smokin that blue dream
watchin black and white movies
call me citizen kane
ride out of nazareth carry the weight
cross the divide
dont know how they feel so I keep it with mine
every day is a trial
when you live in exile
so how can we sing
lay down our harps and break all the strings
