Lyrics

From the smallest to the tallest kid brawling fists was thought of in My mortal skin as fraudulent, ridiculous, systems which we're brought up in People think you're strange when you tell them what normal is What you know about sleeping in your car in the dark, it was hard To get along, sketch a song, live a verse, hit the dirt Do bitter work for crappy pay, it's sad to say I did it when my ignorance Was 16 gin & tonic deep, my product is my posture With a flicker of epiphany, willow trees are wiltering From lack of love, I laugh it up, the cycle of life'll Be insightful of idols and ideals be Michael at my will HighLighT at rough times, shine bright as sunshine When you're on Mercury, if you've never heard of me Then this is an emergency learning spree, burn a beat Freeze a phrase, turn your cheek and sleep away Keep the pain with deeper days, wake up and it seems the same If you know what I'm saying Or feel what I'm spitting Be your own damn self You gotta be different (2x) If you know what I'm saying or feel what I'm spitting My flows would be laying the healing we're missing But I'm such'a +Different+ diplomat, live the facts See the lies breathing life 'til tweeters put a tweak in your sys-tem A twang in your talk, dog, the angles are awkward My return is a jet-I, bet-I, fall far from fallen A tall wall that's hardened, started retarded Smartened with art in, me arteries So pardon please the hard earned beats, I'm on my knees Palm on cheeks, no God for me, I am a God And so are you, our women are our Goddesses If we all had this kinda spit, the 99% of us Would be living dominate, instead it's the majority Living as minorities, the grades given out annually Mathematically's a tragedy, get at me G That one's for the government stubbornness The scandalous get sandwiched with the answerless mannequins And we don't know who to believe, so we're pushy and we're judgy And why the fuck shouldn't we be? If Magic can beat AIDS Why don't we learn sorcery? If wicker is the trick to Never ever getting sick or fearing "what's the bigger picture" I'm'a be D.Blaine mixed in with Houdini Mama seen me plain, fit in with the greedy Dollars ain't no thang, getting it is easy Keeping it's impossible only feed into the logical If you know what I'm saying Or feel what I'm spitting Be your own damn self You gotta be different (2x) Be your own damn self man, you gotta be +Different+ No lottery ticket, the pot that I piss in has a silver lining: My mind can will it if my will can mind it If I release those egos afraid of thoughts of people I'll change the climate with this rain dance I'm miming No more damn imbibing, fuck all this fire water I blow wind from the earth So Slow Flows Spin in the nerves of muscular fibers for ya 'Cuz great you'll find is a state of mind The word can't you'll find is funny as Screech Powers Each hour, doing a hands of time pantomime I'm'a stand up guy with my hands up high Whenever I hear +Sweet Caroline+ 'Cuz the good times never seem so good So good So good Too good
