lyrics

THE WHY I OUGHTTA SAGA

Midway midway through
Life’s journey’s taken me to
A dark neighborhood
Beaten defeated misunderstood.

Listened to good and bad voices.
Made some good and bad choices.
If I knew then what I know now,
I’d be the smartest guy in town.

3 beasts on 3 streets
Won’t let me perceive
The difference between
What’s real and what…

Seems to me like I’m going back to hell again
Fuck GPS, I’ve got the poet Virgil man.
So much to see when we’re running around.
All I know, I’m feeling up as we go down.
Oh the popes and presidents,
The haters and the malcontents,
But you know the biggest surprise?
We are all alive!

All these basic themes
Keep reoccurring
You want to know the truth?
No difference between me and…

You ever notice when you’re walking away,
That the ending is the first thing you will recreate?
Thought-a why I ought-a bang zoom, to the moon.
But I can’t, disrespect, blow my wad too soon.
But when I do, OH, when I do, don’t be dismayed,
We’ve sanctified the womb in the Temple of Doom.
But when I do, OH, when I do, God will say,
It was as good for me, as it was for you.
