Lyrics

Sides, we fall and rise I try to lend an ear but all I hear is false pride So I've been on the outside lookin in Not been thinking about the past or what could of been I'm clear on all sides, we all fall and rise I try to lend an ear but all I hear is false pride So I've been at the shooting range killing time Not been cloud gazing looking for a silver lining Today was like the first day Let there be light aside life Day divided like Mr.Mojo rising to his height See it started with a bang A solitary sun spot As strange words echoed through the void like a gunshot One drop of blood became a pomegranate seed Grew into a tree with forbidden fruit for me and Eve The landlord took his keys and kicked us out thr garden So we moved to New York and got a two bedroom apartment But life seems mundane, and I'm to blame So I don't have the right to complain I'm spin cycling Dark angels knock on our door and I invite them in To bring to life the things I've supressed and help me write again I could plant a seed and tear it out the ground And kill it before it grows like Sheriff John Brown Stare at a blank page for days, block days off Parade around my block lost in thought till it pays off Until the pain stops, until the rain drops Turn to pomegranate seeds Point me in the right direction, then aim and squeeze The shot that echoes though the void's what created me (Im clear on all) Sides, we fall and rise I try to lend an ear but all I hear is false pride So I've been on the outside lookin in Not been thinking about the past or what could of been I'm clear on all sides, we all fall and rise I try to lend an ear but all I hear is false pride So I've been at the shooting range killing time Not been cloud gazing looking for a silver lining Today's the day I finish what I started Put the final touches on it Take the false bravado replace it with something honest I'm in the lab, trying to figure out my brain chemistry With good and evil on either side of me like parentheses I keep my dogma on a short leash its ravenous I feed off Cain's offspring and bible passages My little hell hounds accusing me of sacrilege But let's get back to rapping 'bout money, murder and avarice Able got murked, Judas took the loot Deca got a stomach virus from eating the forbidden fruit I was duped by a tapeworm, accused of high treason Given a moral code and taught to apply reason But I don't listen well and mindless obedience is like a prison cell, a living hell Sinners cast stones at the old shattered bag of bones In catacombs where I walk a crooked path alone (Everything is music) (I'm clear on all) Sides, we fall and rise I try to lend an ear but all I hear is false pride So I've been on the outside lookin in Not been thinking about the past or what could of been I'm clear on all sides, we all fall and rise I try to lend an ear but all I hear is false pride So I've been at the shooting range killing time Not been cloud gazing looking for a silver lining Today was like the last day We masquerade around backstage Half-crazed with skulls like Fabergรฉ eggs When I crack the yolk breaks and the light cascades I think the world came to life that way I heard the end is like a new beggining The curtains rise like a red tide The devil's hanging by a politician's necktie We all fall and rise, the stage comes alive The veil drops and shes standing on the other side Act 2 is the summer of '97 When I figured you got to go through hell to get to heaven But point me in the right direction I was somewhere in the darkest depths When she dragged me out of my depression There's no time better than now I'll be gone awhile, drifting on a cloud Daydreaming at the domicile Two pupils like two black suns I saw her smile She pulled a demon out of my head like God's child.
