Simple Poison
Broken backs by the wayside
Frozen past in a caged mind
We let the last of the change die
Cold winds blow feel the draft in parade lines
Feel the energy that seepin' out
Simple poison that'll leave a cloud
Take a breath of it and breathe it out
It felt too safe now we're chokin' here and freakin' out
When the belt changed hands
I said let em all dance
We already makin' plans hey
You got your lil romance
Put our future in his hands
Oh now you'll take a chance wait
We ain't got time for this experiment of hate
We ain't got time to disappear and let it stay
We ain't got time
We'll fight it to the death yeah, and that's the bottom line
Hold up, are you sure it's not a day dream
I've been sleeping too long come and wake me
Watch the time change. and the fire grow
We will not be quiet that's what I know
Hold up, are you sure it's not a nightmare
Staring evil in the face yeah it's right there
They want a smooth death, They want us lying down
But we're taking those gloves off right now
Some wait and never make a sound
Let's change that and make it now
All that squawking ain't gon' take him down
But we ain't gon' be led to a coffin by a blatant clown easily
Gone are assumptions of decency
Underbelly out in front and we see beneath
I'm wondering how to come together peacefully
Still dreamin' see.
I want the truth or bust
Lotta people yelling just loosen up
I'm just here to tell 'em thank you for nothin'
And i blame me too i didn't do enough
I didn't do enough
Hold up need a second now i'm back to the message
I sat back i got fat now i bask in aggression
Wasn't ready for the truth
Wasn't ready for the proof
Yeah it took a long time now i'm standing here with you
And i'm war ready
Throwing off the gloves
Think the, storms ending?
Just when it's getting rough
We're just, coalescing
If you think we giving up
You can, come get it
Come get it
Hold up, are you sure it's not a day dream
I've been sleeping too long come and wake me
Watch the time change. and the fire grow
We will not be quiet that's what I know
Hold up, are you sure it's not a nightmare
Staring evil in the face yeah it's right there
They want a smooth death, They want us lying down
But we're taking those gloves off right now
Splash of freezing water to the face
What i feared now is in its place
You wanna watch it all disintegrate
'Cause you think you won't be around here when it breaks
And what did i do
Except a bunch of fuckin' yellin' y'all are being lied to
Shoulda kept the eyes glued
None of it surprised you
But you lost your fuckin' minds when we dared to criticize you
Did you light yourself on fire for the heat
Or did you pick him to admire for the greed
I know you got opponents you're inspired by their defeat
But in the middle of a self induced fire ya gotta lead
Throwing grenades and laughin' now
Fan the flames then backin' out
Supporters saying he'd ratchet down
Until the day it's crashin' down
Wish you could say what happens now
At the time i'm at a loss
Clearing out the mind, take a bit to gather thoughts
Restarting at the ground, quite the fall for astronauts
And the time ain't on our side, every second has a cost
Hold up, are you sure it's not a day dream
I've been sleeping too long come and wake me
Watch the time change. and the fire grow
We will not be quiet that's what I know
Hold up, are you sure it's not a nightmare
Staring evil in the face yeah it's right there
They want a smooth death, They want us lying down
But we're taking those gloves off right now
