Sometimes my voice distorts and I like the coarseness A slight hoarseness, there's more truth and bite to the source of it A rough force with which you could discuss life's shortness Speaking of which, the world's cold and the calendar's remorseless Lately I've been feeling time's value Trying not to waste it is basically what I'm down to That screentime counter on your phone can really wow you Make you question how you started doin what you now do There's beauty in abundance but we settle for redundance Label it stability but really we be better off Unhinged The closest we can get to freedom now is probably some form of drug binge The good life seems so distant from us But even when achieved that 'quote unquote' good life don't ever live up to what you thought it was Still human, still you Cancer ain't content until it kills you What's instilled in you will still spill through Searching for a thrill that'll make you feel brand new Man, who Put these thoughts in my head, make me feel like I'm progressing but I'm regressing instead? In some luke warm water in which I tread I'm tryin' to do the polar bear plunge for once before I'm dead And forgotten, in the ground rotting What's it gonna be you speeding on the autobahn or got your feet up on the ottoman Every time I breathe in oxygen I should be grateful But a healthy fear of death don't make everybody faithful I wasn't well stapled together my brain rattles like that of a thrown through a table wrestler I ain't as clever as a fox but you gotta have a crazy eye to see outside the box The one I'm trapped in voluntarily that's only slightly different from the one in which they'll bury me
