ein banger

lyrics

Cans on my floor
Friends in my heart
My mama kept wishin I'd go so far
Tickle in my throat
Throw out a cigarette
The next time I fall down that'll be it
Got anger for days
In not an angsty way
I'll only run away if I can run with me
And I'll only die young if I choose to stop surviving

They got the power
They drop the bodies
They take the fathers
They blame the mothers
They got words, the money, the platforms
They made the system
Theytheythey
I wish I knew they

Keeping myself outta trouble a lil while longer
Till I figure out howta make the right fuckers burn
Welcoming all the they'd to my next pig roast all you hearty vegans
Please eat round the cuffs

We got some numbers
We got some anger
We got some hope
We got some loss
We got some years
We got some lifers
We got the blame
We dealin with the same ole shit
Shit,shit,shit

I had a reaction
I often question my lack of action
Can't remember the last time I had a positive interaction
While dealin with the folks that wanna change this worlds direction
The only ones getting any traction
I don't think I'm distracted
Think sometimes I can't claw out my sadness
And I get stuck in the muck
Calcified, and waiting for my extraction

They got the power
We are the bombs
They getta shaken
We make em afraid to leave their homes
This divisive language might lead to awkward conversations
making folks uncomfortable is how change is generated


Keeping myself outta trouble a lil while longer
Till I figure out howta make the right fuckers burn
Welcoming all the they'd to my next pig roast all you hearty vegans
Please eat round the cuffs
