Sun Over Sidewalks

Sun soaked imagery, canvas of cement
Sometimes I wonder where the hell we really went
Wrong, this is so wrong
Some shit I never thought that I would put in a song
But I just haven't been feeling very optimistic
There's no point, but I think we missed it
And I think we've surely kissed it
Goodbye, the chance to save ourselves, Sea Biscuit
Just a horse out to pasture
Go ahead, ask your pastor
Shit, I'll answer you faster
Nothing comes after

So before our time runs out
Need to focus here and now
We can't let our children down
Waters rise and these futures drown
And it's our time to endure
No stillness in this illness until we find a cure
What are these sidewalks even for
If we make them walk down the road
Till the sun is no more

Graphic novel come to life
Everybody else is looking for the fucking afterlife
I'm on to the next page
Move me into this cavern
Move into the cave
I'm digging deeper, deeper down
Hope to carry out something that's worth the effort now
One man's trash is opossum buffet
How many species in Eden after we go away
Impossible, they say
Oh, it's possible

Probability is off of the scales
Coffins for whales
Cut down every tree, no oxygen to inhale
Just a bunch of ash
And you can't look past
The way they do math cause it's
Dollar bills over people's lives
I just wanna see the people rise
Bunch of bumblebees buzzin hack the hornet's hive
Be kind, but bitch we gotta survive
All for one and one for all
No I wouldn't be who I am if it weren't at least for the few of y'all
Thankful our thread's been tangled
Our souls here in this ball
Needles to feed new egos
Share this energetic shawl

The way we're woven keeps us warm
May those not chosen be free from harm
Helmet and pads for the rest of the ride
When the sunset and horizon collide
Birch to the blaze as the darkness provides
A change in the tides from the opposite side
Each day is the ultimate prize
That sun will rise
