"You can close your eyes
The skies'll still be blue
I like how you survive
But one day life will kill you."
Is what she said to me and told me I can keep the change
The whole thing sounded strange
But it comes with what we do
Did a fall run with the homie Psalm One
I was geeked we got to do a mini app show
We played The Entry, the party of the century
Except the [?] in the big room next door
It was pretty dope
Cause it's a rap city though
And you can see some stills in the pissy trance video
My voice [?] without a DJ
I rocked a little awkward
Lucky for me my phone didn't falter
Had my mic height set for a guy a bit shorter
Rapid screen, [?], and big quarters
Some big timers played the back and them corners
I took it pretty well despite my social disorders
The first few moments on stage can be a bitch to work through
I tend to head straight to the merch booth
We doing small talk and getting CDs off
A lady comes up and sings in a sweet soft voice
"You can close your eyes
The skies'll still be blue
I like how you survive
But one day life will kill you."
Is what she said to me and told me I can keep the change
The whole thing sounded strange
But it comes with what we do
I didn't know how to deal with it either
She looked like a young Kim Deal from The Breeders
Instead of explaining she got more intense with it
Looked me in the eye like that would help me make sense of it
She had come for the party in the other room
But heard the beats and they put her in another mood
She was a b-girl in her former life
And she used to bump tapes full of Kool Keith and Rubberoom
You never would've known from her outfit
Party dress and heels on some real downtown shit
She emphasized, it was fate that she found us
And wanted one of everything because we all sound sick
And then she leaned at a really weird angle
And passed out and banged her head silly on the merch table
"You can close your eyes
The skies'll still be blue
I like how you survive
But one day life will kill you."
Is what she said to me and told me I can keep the change
The whole thing sounded strange
But it comes with what we do
