June 26th, 1999- D. Mothers of Invention

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Doseone] For the sum of us It's completion, loaded myself in the walkway Scratching out, walk away Deals like problems with the pots inside the phone Hand the liar's block Coming down with the deals, girls (for once!) Rip some texture out of me, [into me] small world Rip into me if you more [caps] and one last question that's all I need Go buy a fresh stem and issue, open end A moon boot tire survived earthling (Heave!) Cracks in the headphones and the scalp [Cants and should not who just wasted ink] (Left it, left it) Colours within, colours within [I'll see said the plum and] curtsy bow He bowed on his birthday Moon against his own questions anyone skeleton (Skeleton key!) key period open [Hook: Alias, Slug, & Sole] Walking through the rain and the millennium Where lazy and convenient is the mother of invention I must have the guts to mention to that man in that reflection (What are you looking at?) [Verse 2: Sole] So it's been a minute and I've grown fond of this outfit Gotta escape the lone we keep on the deep end we depend upon To continue to struggle, to bond connecting thoughts Thoughts in spare time, I'm a reoccurring theme (remember me?) How soon they forget, I ain't seen lanterns I developed the ability to rise Now I own all the shadows and reflect off everything Sold the bulletproof vest 'cause they stuck [dumb and] forgot how to propel To move each other to move bodies of water Artists scared to crack the surface but what I give is distorted And carry to bury brought back to life the sandcastle Nothing lasts, beauty is what you make it Until the waves of wind and people ruin What I've worked so very hard to preserve [Hook: Alias, Slug, & Sole] Walking through the rain and the millennium Where lazy and convenient is the mother of invention I must have the guts to mention to that man in that reflection (What are you looking at?) [Verse 3: Slug] And when the sun looks at me, I feel alright But ain't nothing but a moment before it turns away The humidity trip me off of my feet last night When I looked up I saw that I had nothing to say I think I'd like people more if they'd think more like me So quietly I wait for my inner revolution When the eagle can soar forward toward the sea I'll aim at the beast in the name of retribution Now I'm lookin' down the barrel of a gun Son of a gun, son of a Sam, son of the man Who was a brother to Sam and If they see my shadow they should run, 'cause I won't alt 'til I'm done Spreadin' all my salt across the land [Hook: Alias, Slug, & Sole] Walking through the rain and the millennium Where lazy and convenient is the mother of invention I must have the guts to mention to that man in that reflection (What are you looking at?) Walking through the rain and the millennium Where lazy and convenient is the mother of invention I must have the guts to mention to that man in that reflection (What are you looking at?) [Outro: Alias] As a child I was afraid of the storm, but now I welcome the rain
