Back to Back

Back to back and palm to palm, young Ezra dropped the bomb
Stacks n stacks of notes to mom, he plagiarized the psalms
One boot in front of your brother, left on the right and the right on the other
The crash before the calm

Cheek to cheek and nose to nose, take cover while she blows
Weeks n weeks of blistered toes, the thorns upon the rose
One hand on top of your zipper, a thanks for your time and a buck for your stripper
It's all the public knows

Man to man and pearl to pearl, a necklace for his girl
Clan to clan his lip is curled, the master plan unfurls
One man starts up the Mercedes, but guns go to boys and flags go to ladies
Their dresses while they twirl
It's Ezra's sort of world

Hand to hand and heart to heart, young Ezra did his part
Land to land they push his cart, inside the new Walmart
One hand rests over his liquor, he wakes every night to the sound of a trigger
His empty room too dark
So he stays in the park
