glimpses of brilliance and beauty...
reruns of fear and pure ignorance..
the responsible folk... gazing safely in the sky at night...
but stars go hard...
little adults of a bunch of different sizes... kids are extinct...
people with faith.. people with nuthin...
myself in the morning when i'm mad...
myself at night when I'm nice...
them...
i always see them...
they always see me...
oh yeah? well they always see you too...
triumph and tragedy of several different volumes and values...
my loved ones.. those with hate....
she's cool..he's a prick...he's a puss...she's a lay-up..she's a know it all...he's a know it all.. he's a know it all.. she's a know it all.. okay, i think he's the last one... okay,okay.. her and him, and that's it... those are the all the know it alls....
whew... ah yes.. he's an outcast... he's still on the hanger... she's a swabber... he's power starved... he's attention starved.. she's redemption starved...
too many i see to name em all...
and yet everyone you pass is naming you....
is that why the "odds" are against us?
ashes,ashes we all get clowned...
no sticks, no stones thrown..
i still see people on the ground...
i'm on my own two but we're one in the same...
we both look up, and put out our hands begging for change...
I'm looking at the sky, he's looking at some fast walking guy...
and both of our current postures remain...
innocent felons..
prudent prostitutes..
gangster nerds rollin wit candy thugs..
corporate america copping from the spot...
from a dude in VANS and straight legs...
the sand i've passed in my hourglass...
the past..
today...
and then?
back when.. my eyes were so innocent, they could've committed any of the sensational crimes, since '79 and got off...
oh that's right.. they did..
