are you familiar? with this grey haze i blow/
spit the lines they make nate tightrope/
walk. I'm a hawk when the sky glow/
sunrise, sunset, than I'm home/
alone like McCauley/
just me and the anger that made me a bully/
I'm better as a good guy i know/
can't read those lines with my eyes closed/
and i can't seem to find, where i go/
self conscious chin up but eyes low/
broad shoulders, one with the chip on/
probably the same el diablo's sitting on/
cuz me and Dios, we no hablo/
its like we know each other there, but we shy though/
I'm either livin in a glare or a shadow/
death is easy its life thats a battle/
some of us live life like cattle/
and some of us snakes i can tell cuz you rattled/
my mind is addled its my ego/
when we hang together the trouble goes where we go/
jumpin double dutch with these mic cords/
mind doin flips thinking what is life for/
tying up a noose with these mic cords/
so when you leave me here...leave the lights on...

eyes downcast, die cast too/
Old Boy feel trapped like I'm Oh Dae Su/
i think the sky is blue/
if you had never looked up you wouldn't know i flew/
Superman is in a cape/
me im goin bananas on a Planet of the Apes/
i gotta get out soon/
take it back to my youth like Goodnight Moon/
find me Where the Sidewalk Ends/
call it hiphop hopscotch in high top vans/
she's in high heels when i walk in/
and no i don't make dollars but i talk sense/
her lashes are venus fly traps in disguise/
I'm in danger cuz I'm fly in her eyes/
i see through her disguise/
but I'm lost too so I'm fine with her lies/

sippin scotch with pops, which is rarely the deal/
mixed with disappointment which is barely concealed/
cuz I'm just a shiftless musician/
as if i can't heal with these stories I'm spittin/
stick to my principles stick to my story/
rub those sticks together til my heart flame roaring/
and i have done wrong in my life/
so i guess whats left, is to turn right/
take that inner flame, let it burn bright/
put me in the game i bet ima earn stripes/
and ive lived a good life/
if tomorrow get erased, what would you write...?
