Seismic Waves

Armageddon started, I guess it wasn't that hard to miss

It didn't trip the alarm on your hybrid carbon footprint

The darts are rigged and I'm a big fan of carbs and of artist prints

There's a marginal risk that your cards won't hit

It's like trying to borrow a barbecue rib from a starving kid

Be thankful if your stars are lit

Or you might get caught between the Charmin and shit

The armor fits to stay out of harm's grip

But karma's a bitch so when your heartbeat quits

Consider all the death you've invested with

The shoes, the booze, the phone that you texting with

Disrespect and get second amendmented

But the species still seem to be trending

From the friend zone all the way to the Kremlin

The devil give a fuck about a flag or an emblem

Things ain't been the same since Trayvon, shit

Things ain't been the same since Reagan, wait

Ain't a single thing changed from the days

When the gods went crazy and broke the languages

We trying to make these payments

Ain't got the privilege to exhibit the patience

Gone next week so tonight we lie

With no lives to save, seismic waves

I should jump back and kiss myself

But I've been working on learning to resist myself

I used to think criticism was the definition

Fish swimming up a river full of pessimism

I want to catch one barehanded

Clean it, cook it, and feed it to Lazarus

All around the planet, it's the same as Minneapolis

Everybody looking for a little love and happiness

I don't romanticize the rain

And those drugs only hide the pain

Turn up the temperature, high as a plane

With non sequiturs to tie up your train

And you can keep Christopher Walken with the shit that you talking

You can't take it with if it don't fit in your coffin

As a kid I didn't give it much thought then

Just wanted a mouthful of nipple

And a Zippo in my zipper pocket

I remember when the whole world stank like an ashtray
