Lyrics
Sometimes the truth don't come in a pretty melody
Sometimes it rains down, like a thunderstorm in July
Making you ask, "How close can heaven get?"
Sometimes it rains down like a crash symbol under Kevin's stick
Or a nasty strung under James Bone's pick
A pretty note under Jacob Scesne's lip
Or a blues riff, offa Ben's fingertip
Or when Nate plays a funky lick
Oh shit
Just wanna take this in for a second
We weren't promised this man
Wasn't so long ago I was making beats in mom's basement
Now I'm on the big stage my haters can't say shit!
What's the difference between knowledge, and wisdom?
I looked at the newspaper,
filled with the names of crooks, liars, and schemers
And five years from now the newspaper will be filled
with the names of a new set of crooks, liars, and schemers
That's why after we do the hits I
always take the time to put the guitar down
Because two hundred years from now the words of
this poem will be just as beautiful as they are now
Politics is to poetry,
as knowledge is to wisdom, that's the difference
And we just want a guy we can memorise
A lover who never lies
And a neighbourhood that's been gentrified
