Nitroglycerin

Lyrics

[Intro: Joshua Graham] In a world filled with misery, it is a great comfort to know that In the end, there is light in the darkness [Verse 1: Hayatheus] Yeah, they told me my days were numbers I'd be forever slumbered on It's too late to do it, so go back to bed and sleep in Of course I'd love to die, how convenient to halt the grind Figure out the mysteries of life ahead of schedule I'm eager for that bell pull, but my grit full Got a couple hundred homies relying on my pavement Intercontinental missiles on the way, shit It's all incremental medals and awards I got fed up with the course, so I switched sports I couldn't let them fall behind, so I hitch horsed Can't be a stoic when you hate to choose Got a lot I can't afford to lose The love and the art, so I knit and don't print Take risks till I hit, know it's art playing my part on the kit Stay brisk when the ceiling splits, need a cold mix Nitro shit, that's nitroglycerin, is that a vicious sin? My discipline make me a different kind of citizen An implicit win just to forbid certain summons Obliterate the complicit at the source It's judicial, it's the core Archbishop rocking with a cohort Stay suspicious of the quick retorts, yeah [Bridge: Charlie Chaplin] I don't want to rule or conquer anyone I should like to help everyone if possible Jew, Gentile, Black man, white In this world there's room for everyone And the good earth is rich And can provide for everyone The way of life can be free and beautiful But we have lost the way Greed has poisoned men's souls [Verse 2: YVHIKV] From the earth to the skin My soul fiber is intention Try to remember I'm the one who illustrated So help me surrender I've got goods for the road on my shoulders And the snaps are fully woven With the beauty of my elders And a world that's still frozen I am the raw edge Played out in the wrong Soft as chiffon And a staple like iron wool Wake my soul Jazz adjacent Baton Rouge Only an artist could escape the rules When we parallel not later do Endangered by the space we use Calculating favors It's all games to you One of the so-called famous views [Outro: Sample & YVHIKV] If you really care to- So-called famous views You might find I need you So-called famous views
