The Plague

[Produced By Nate Sylvan] [Verse 1] I used to wake up, bake up, cook bacon and eggs up Mind up in the sky my third eye thought it had a leg up Drunken stumble over broken bodies in a tenement A layer of human sediment composed of degenerates Someone’s mom would mumble in a disapproving rhetoric Then go to work, as zombies rise up from the dirt The sun would rise our eyes would hurt, "Close the blinds Bump the vibes" as our tribe contrived a mind altering High to pass the time, ritualistic crime in the pupil's of the law But as pupils of ourselves we viewed that ruling as a flaw "F the L, a double yah (yah)" Preacher to my people The house is my steeple the politicians are my evil Feeble bodied women, hefty men, we are but equal Knights on a carpeted pew, habitual acid may spew But if you wash it down that royal crown is there to meet you Where kings use their nose to enhance the world we know Jazzy loops evoke spontaneous hymnals of my soul The angels lay low, providing themselves with smokey halos The same ones that brothers kill each other in as the day goes Feudal economics, making triple digit payrolls [Hook] Man I don’t wanna live my life like this Man I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna live my life like this Man I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna live my life like this, no! But now I’m caught up in a life like this But now I’m caught up, now I’m caught up in a life like this But now I’m caught up, now I’m caught up in a life like this, oh! [Verse 2] Bio. majors concentrated on the birds and the bees But arson forestry, cause we blazing trees Keeping lies stashed underneath our sleeves And our jeans, caught up with the serfs and the thieves who Collect interest for their power over peasants with prestige A system built on loyal needy fiends "Hail the Queen," a substance religion held supreme The monotheistic view that we believe But stops us from having dreams Get blacked out, recoup though Then re-sin with resin that resembles buboes Ideas of utopia is the true hope One day we will escape the system like Pluto But our education stops at the metric system And lost memories of executing long division Reduced to the quarters we are given, we live in The broken manor that reflects our current mannerisms Just another day into another night We got the plague, but we are still alive Harvest time, gripping grain as they work the 9 to 5 I just hope that we can make it out ali-, make it out alive [Hook] Man I don’t wanna live my life like this Man I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna live my life like this Man I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna live my life like this, no! But now I’m caught up in a life like this But now I’m caught up, now I’m caught up in a life like this But now I’m caught up, now I’m caught up in a life like this, oh! [Outro] You take the blue pill: the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill: you stay in wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes… Remember, all I’m offering is the truth, nothing more
