So what the hell's gonna happen when we all go burn
out/ Ashes to ashes, won't you melt my urn
down/ When I leave just keep the music and the memories/ My flesh is the
lesser, all it did was hinder me/ Peace to those close who made a friend of me/
Who recognized there was never a pretend to be/ Sorry for the cynicism, that's
just me/ Thanks for all the criticism, I let that be/ These verses & this
city dwarf me/ But support me, bet that the pavement ain't ignore me/ Lended me
a crutch, when I's struck with a limp/ Been a couple stops, they were abrupt
and they bent/ Mentally, physically/ you never end up what you intend to be/
Resentfully some times, I sit and ponder the past/ Take a quick drag and then
respond with a glass/
(You) [*Don’t
Understand*] /What true passion will take/
(You) [*Don’t Understand*]/ The sacrifices you’ll make/
(You) [*Don’t Understand*]/ The best of you it’ll break/
(You) [*Don’t Understand*]/ And what’s left of you stays/
(You) [*Don’t Understand*]/ What confusion can do/
(You) [*Don’t Understand*]/ What illusion construes/
(You) [*Don’t Understand*]/ The many uses of you/
(You) [*Don’t Understand*]/ And what in the hell you are
doing to you/
/Corruption, seduction, money, and scandal/ Prostituted
morals for sum cash in a satchel/ Fear, infighting, and perception of value/ Of
one-self, brings problems that are nothing about you/ Wanna jump the gun, but
your scared if you stand out/ So you blend with the crowd of emotional
handouts/ Now it’s a contest of who’s got it the hardest/ Instead of kind
words, you play competitive martyrs/ All the while suits start molesting the
market/ Economy dwindles, and you forget how it got there/ I take a breath, and
I stop, stare/ …..How in the hell do you not care/ Congresswoman shot right out
in the public/ And everybody acts like it’s sensitive subject/ There’s that
amendment you covet/ Dearly beloved does it feel like your brain took a
scrubbing/ Imagine the rich one percent creating diversion/ When between us and
them, whose pockets are hurting/ Bailouts to keep huge corporations a rolling/ Uh,
I think my capitalism is broken/
/If Obama is Muslim, umm….why would he hide it? /Cause when
YOU think Muslim, you thinking Al-Qaeda/ Imagine being hated for the God that
you pray to/ Then YOU turn around and ask yours to save you/ Hypocrisy is
limitless/ I should I know, I make camp in the tenement/ So much time spent
fingering treason/ When it’s a long walk on back to Eden/ Days like these, when
I bask in the seasons/ Cause they change on time for a actual reason/Never
point a hand or do they call me a heathen/ And give a damn less if I’m Crocker
or Stephen/Yeah, I take comfort in that/
Never a crossroads or a juncture for that/ It’s the simplest pleasure, that’ll
keep you in check/ One free from creditors or the rules of a debt/
