[Verse 1:]
As I walk through this cluster
Of people that I look upon as buster
I continue to keep one of my feet in this gutter
Maybe that's my way of puttin' the day in place
Ain't too much okay, you can tell by how I wear This face
But don't you worry, this is my journey
Fellas keep your fists up, women keep it dirty
Fly little birdy as I walk through this puzzle
Puttin' it together makin' sure the laugh stays Muffled
They congregated on the corner of the block
Tryin' to come up with the plan so they can close Down the shop
Unsuccessfully all attempts oppressin' we
Testing we, bringing we one closer to the Destiny
Yes it be the fool that burnt down the school, tryin' to turn around the frown and make
Everything seem cool, sittin' on my stool showing
Off my muscles, caught between a chuckle and a "f** you" and "I love you"
They buckle and bend When I start up the binge, this structure can't Handle the whole weight
They struggle cause they Pride won't let em give in, so I'm a let em cuddle With they own self hate
[Hook:]
Come on mash that dream into a telephone pole, Catch that beam let it caress the soul, she don't Need me, he don't need love, they won't see Through, they caught a bad dub, I walk down the Street in search of a home, a virtual me inside My head roams, way too buzzed and the ride's too Rough, can't read what I wrote last night on the Bus
[Verse 2:]
I put footprints across each inch
I've left fingerprints on the way that you listen
The women distract me, I give in, gladly
Stayed Vision, try not to stray from the mission
Holy cough drops, am I the next to get knocked off?
Played a game of hop-scotch and stepped on a soft spot
Can't fall off if you don't reach for the top
So I'm a stay below the radar and keep what I got
I don't sleep a lot. I don't like to dream
Shoved my thoughts in your mouth just to stifle your screams
If the light was green I'd put the Pedal to the metal
Put the flame to the kettle tryin' to keep the pain settled
Change up the level, turn the treble down
Dosey doe with the Angel and spin the Devil round
Gotta get a better sound out of this mis-matched system
Got a city full of heads, can't none catch the rhythm
So let me run through these motions some more
We Gon' see the light once I kick open this door
We Gon' be alright, DJ spin the breaks
So I can make Everybody embrace they self hate
[Hook:]
You can mash that dream into a telephone pole
Catch that beam let it caress the soul
She don't need me, he don't need love
They won't see through, they caught a bad dub
