Quest for Fire

I'm seein' sleep walkers, and as cheap as talk is I'm feelin' nauseas speaking in this three ring with artists Hearts set on dreams and contracts They laugh with my brothers, know who's wondering where I'm at? Bathing on stage savin' all for tomorrow Maintaining' the sorrow in a coffee, a Marlboro If the past has any reflections of the future I don't see me on easy street But the truth flirts with destiny It's the remedy herb, we scream for longevity, with obscenity slur's We prefer the best dressed and like being lied to Gettin' signed upset to find I'm back in high school Livin' out his window, all these roads shitty These headies t-shirts, we hurt our own city But the phone sits still though I owe these bills Only focus on the thrills of the shows we killed Can we rebuild? Cause the road to travel on is unraveling fast While you grabbin' on to Babylon Come with me, one foot on the bank While you're laughin' downstream for to take all the goods The name on the hood, the fame on the stage So why you drowning with one leg on the bank? Come with me, one foot on the bank While you're laughin' downstream For to take all the goods The name on the hoods, the fame on the stage So why you drowning with one (leg on the bank) It makes no sense to me these fences screening off you No chance to pass your analysis, I'm dreamin' through you And time to stop burnin' my brain, it's time for certain But the lines ain't working, shit sprayed on the train It has to rain sometimes, but whys the sun hate us? Trying' to hide this moon tan with two hands of make-up But it's time to wake, I couldn't hold this wealth Above these swelling' waves of hands, and this fame don't help Dreaming' of letter box places, I'm better off taking' my time But whys this ride half-pacin'? And twice the car fare on the dot from what I got To well a hundred blocks and it's never gonna stop And when it does it's not fare, just felt like runnin' huh? Wheres the blunt end try to tell the sun something Your wishes won't float when you choke the fish bones Above the fluid sewage for this colonists home It's cold in the water, it don't hurt to live Was it worth gettin' wet? You gotta learn to swim Come with me, one foot on the bank Why you laughin' down stream, for to take all the goods Your name on the hoods, the fame on the stage So why you drownin' with one leg on the bank? Come with me, one foot on the bank While you laughin' downstream, for to take all the goods Your name on the hood, The fame on the stage So why you drownin' with on leg on the bank?
