MAINT REQD

Copper Gone专辑

  • 作曲 : Sage Francis
    [Hook:]
    MAINT REQD, push through the pain
    What the flame does not consume, consumes the flame
    We'll burn it at both ends, it's safe to assume
    What doesn't consume the flame, the flame consumes
    MAINT REQD, push through the pain
    What the flame does not consume, consumes the flame
    Burn it on both ends, we're hoping and praying for rain
    [Verse 1 - Sage Francis:]
    Listen, a lie is just a lie if you believe that they'll believe it
    Otherwise it's some sly legal speak so we keep our secrets
    Our rap lineup in a silk robe
    They prance around the home like princesses obsessed with kissing every toad
    But ain't no prince here
    In fact, I had to slay the dragon I was chasing for the warts to disappear
    And dissect the frog, cut through the fog and do my thing
    In the land of the pigs, the butcher is king
    This is two-hundred and sixty pounds of ground meat in a town sound sleep
    Countin' cards while they count sleep
    Now I'm on a sacrificial lamb, it's collapsing an iron lung
    Had to remove the mask and ask what kind of trash am I among
    Caught in the widow's web the black spiders spun
    Taking a beating so ancient that it's basically a tribal drum
    I'm seeing stars and constellations
    Seeing warning signals in the Universe's dashboard they're all saying
    [Hook:]
    MAINT REQD, push through the pain
    What the flame does not consume, consumes the flame
    We'll burn it at both ends, it's safe to assume
    What doesn't consume the flame, the flame consumes
    MAINT REQD, push through the pain
    What the flame does not consume, consumes the flame
    We'll burn it on both ends, we're hoping and praying for rain
    [Verse 2:]
    Paint me like one of your French girls
    Use my neck as a scratch poster, rip out every last one of them red curls
    Knit me a sweater with the intestines of attention whores
    Of no expectations of the tribe I'll have to settle for
    Circular logic is foul talk, mental *** for sport
    Abuse me like customer support (I'll be your tech support)
    I'm sorry to hear you're having problems
    It must be difficult, let me see if I can help you like--figure 'em out
    Have you listened to Biz Markie's "Just a Friend"
    Have you tried turning me off and back on again
    If you Make-A-Wish on a foundation there's maintenance required
    All I ask is you be careful when you state what you desire
    They say Satan is on fire without breaking a sweat
    All that pagan **** is tired so I'm taking a rest
    I met my date at the pyre she was shorter than I like
    But wore a dress that's as long as the night, then I saw the light
    [Hook:]
    MAINT REQD, push through the pain
    What the flame does not consume, consumes the flame
    We'll burn it at both ends, it's safe to assume
    What doesn't consume the flame, the flame consumes
    MAINT REQD, push through the pain
    What the flame does not consume, consumes the flame
    We'll burn it on both ends, we're hoping and praying for rain
    [Verse 3:]
    Yeah, I’d settle on a bed of rusty nails instead of roses
    ‘Cause a song by any other name is so earnest, so forth
    So what, I got blood on my mattress
    Got a harem full of knife throwers who use my back for target practice
    I ***** with them
    types
    Inherited this cutlery along with the scars, they all look alike
    Used to write confessions in between the lines
    And used to wear long sleeves so no one else could read my mind
    Now I exercise my right to bear arms when I write words
    The last polar bear taking a last stand on a melting iceberg
    Where nothing is exclusive—when holding confidence
    *** could get abusive—but everyone consents
    Anything that’s lucrative—gets reduced to checks
    And now you’re wondering where your fair share of the bit of profit is
    Sorry kids, the piggy banks depleted
    Had a million dollar smile, but not the pretty face that’s needed
    I’ve seen torture but I’ve never tapped a bottle or twisted the cap whenever they passed the forty
    I’m fat boy disorderly nothing fun about obesity
    But recently, I toyed with it morbidly
    Cordially invite you to the incredible, mind that bends metal
    No spoon is safe, no fork is too special
    Essentially we all know how the story ends
    How heavily the plot twist depends on a little bit of
    Maintenance, maintenance, maintenance
    [Outro:]
    My house ******* lololololololololol
