Lyrics
Spit on the corpse and I still fool forensics (yeah)
Been in the courts.
They let guilt through the exit
I could report who I killed to detectives
"Poisoned by 9 inch steel through appendix"
Stare into void and appeal to our friendship
Parentless boy made a deal: couldn't heal so he'd end it
Skeletons of children expended
Vanish when I peel off the bandage
Huh.
Barrell smoking.
My apparel soaked down to the stitching
Autograph the automatic.
Holes found in the victim
Find identifiers but no profile in the system
Ghost towns and evictions.
Wrote down past for fiction.
Wait.
I don't exist.
Bones opaque.
Cellophane skin.
I stole your face now your skull is caved in
Closed cold case when the reprobate wins
A self-portrait is a delicate thing
Shards of the mirror now cellotaped.
Figure I should celebrate sin
They had the wine cellar drained
Hm.
Now it's just the cell I wait in
Huh.
Gun with scratched off serial number
From a land the imperialists plundered
Blood on hands don't appear in the books.
Hung from branches in period 1
But it's still too far from the roots
Fingerprints and enigma.
Lynched for my pigment but barred from the group
Bodies charred with the proof
Distance faded the name that I carved in my shoes
Huh.
Spit on the corpse and I still fool forensics
They let guilt through the exit
I could report who I killed to detectives
"Poisoned by 9 inch steel through appendix"
Stare into void and appeal to our friendship
Parentless boy made a deal: couldn't heal so he'd end it
Skeletons of children expended
Vanish when I peel off the bandage
Huh.
Photo in the darkroom.
You exposed me to the light.
You were in the system.
Junkies OD in the night.
Severed from my element.
I sow seeds in the ice.
Now I got crows' feet at my eyes
Smile while crows feed on my eyes
Huh.
I might just drown in the genepool
Time had diluted the blood that is found in my people
Cypher print on the blouse that is seeped through
Nigh extinction. Devout to my breed.
Pride and pigment: empowered by neither
I'm on my knees
Huh.
Burn down the house of the feeble
Dirt in the mouth that I breathe through
Spit on the corpse and I still fool forensics
They let guilt through the exit
I could report who I killed to detectives
"Poisoned by 9 inch steel through appendix"
Stare into void and appeal to our friendship
Parentless boy made a deal: couldn't heal so he'd end it
Skeletons of children expended
Vanish when I peel off the bandage
Huh.
Spit on the corpse and I still fool forensics
They let guilt through the exit
I could report who I killed to detectives
"Poisoned by 9 inch steel through appendix"
Stare into void and appeal to our friendship
Parentless boy made a deal: couldn't heal so he'd end it
Skeletons of children expended
Vanish when I peel off the bandage
Huh.
