Lyrics
I took it to the head, it was either that or take it to the heart
I jumped-start when I play my part to a "T"
Sipped tea but the teeth still sharp, trust
Work the grindstone, build the callus
Smith the silver then sip the chalice
Seed the garden, let it climb the lettice
Till it grows high enough to storm the palace
Kings are crooked, this crowns corrupt and
I'm no exception, I'm oversteppin'
I'm so unconscious it's so obnoxious
I was a monster once now I'm nothing but
Brushes tapping on muted drums
At the mercy of flavored turns
Thumbs up patnas when the lungs collapse
And I'm bowing gracefully to the claps like
No feels
No feels
If you are who you say
It's too late to come down, don't try
Woke up and walked outside
One night, found this gray
Fed it to my vein, cocaine, apathy
If you are who you say
It's too late to come down, don't try
Woke up and walked outside
One night, found this gray
Fed it to my vein, cocaine, apathy
Uh
I took it to the head, it was either that or take it to the heart
Rerouted it someplace dark, somewhere I'd probably forget
Happiness, happiness
Quick everyone, be your happiest
Smile money wide for the cameras
Make it look like my life is miraculous, hide all the damages
Inundated by the fabricated, barely noticed it, so highly acclimated
We think everyone round must be dumb as doors
Now I'm looking to Trump like an affidavit
Are you seeing this? Who am I supposed to be in this?
Where to air out all my grievances
When America needs my obedience?
Only way I complete in this is with
No feels
No feels, no feels, no feels, yeah
No feels, no feels, no feels, no
I'm numb, wanna be numb
That's why I stay sedated
I'm numb, wanna be numb
That's why I stay sedated
If you are who you say
It's too late to come down, don't try
Woke up and walked outside
One night, found this gray
Fed it to my vein, cocaine, apathy
If you are who say who you say
It's too late to come down, don't try
Woke up and walked outside
One night, found this gray
Fed it to my vein, cocaine, apathy
