Hymnal - Open Mike Eagle/Sammus.mp3

[00:05.71]So. . . sleepy
[00:11.78]When I snap my fingers
[00:15.62]To thine own self, be felt-tip
[00:17.58]Hip as a belt clip
[00:19.23]With a helmet fit for helpless feels
[00:21.17]If you can help it
[00:23.33]Reassess the unarmed
[00:24.90]Leave refreshed and unharmed
[00:26.91]Bring milk and honey to the funny farm
[00:28.82]See the rest become charmed dumb
[00:32.40]"An apple a day," what apple sellers say
[00:35.06]I was brought into this world with the instinct to back the hell away
[00:38.82]And the will to write a rap song as long as an Alaskan day
[00:42.41]To fight to balance those two feels is a personal passion play
[00:45.96]But so what?
[00:47.64]Flying ***** is thrown at rolling doughnuts
[00:50.35]My feet is cold, but so what?
[00:52.61]Cause I'm bold enough to show up
[00:53.77]I-- what's the hold up-
[00:55.79]-side down, ketchup bottle speed
[00:57.96]Uncoordinated, running with pigeon toes and knobby knees
[01:01.62]God damn it, folks will follow me
[01:03.33]Bucket of random body parts
[01:05.36]Master of the sloppy arts
[01:07.13]Like Kindergartners trying to be done
[01:10.28]Big dumb-dumb trying to fly to the sun
[01:12.72]I'm dried up and look at what I have become
[01:15.05]Sing it like a church song
[01:18.28]Like a old-time prayer from a dead man written on a notebook
[01:20.84]Draw with a ink pen
[01:21.88]Like it doesn't even matter if it go, god damn it, it's the first time
[01:24.46]Make it like a mistake
[01:25.86]Sing it like a church song
[01:27.19]Written when the shit wasn't going right
[01:28.36]Sing it like it don't hurt
[01:29.62]Like it can't break
[01:30.46]Like it's this big
[01:31.45]I ain't no chili pepper
[01:34.49]I ain't got mama's gun
[01:36.34]I ain't in Evanescence
[01:38.23]I ain't in All-4-One
[01:40.07]I got a dumb agenda
[01:41.97]Can't even make a plan
[01:43.93]If you remember the moment come here and shake my hand
[01:47.85]I ain't no chili pepper
[01:49.70]I ain't got mama's gun
[01:51.59]I ain't in Evanescence
[01:53.58]I ain't an awful one
[01:55.50]I got a dumb agenda
[01:57.30]Can't even make a plan
[01:59.28]If you remember the moment come here and shake my hand
[02:03.10]Sing it like a church song
[02:04.38]Like a old-time prayer from a dead man written on a notebook
[02:06.70]Draw with a ink pen
[02:07.97]Like it doesn't even matter if it go, god damn it, it's the first time
[02:10.46]Make it like a mistake
[02:11.74]Sing it like a church song
[02:13.22]Written when the shit wasn't going right
[02:14.46]Sing it like it don't hurt
[02:15.62]Like it can't break
[02:16.50]Like it's this big
[02:17.89]I'd rather be hiding alone like some Ewoks
[02:19.85]Up in tree tops
[02:21.03]Creeping around like I'm T-Boz
[02:22.89]Steeping the grounds in my teapots
[02:24.95]But I'm Steve Jobs
[02:25.90]On my Apple updating my E-Shops
[02:27.58]Eat a apple a day, take a brief pause
[02:29.66]Take a nap, lie awake in-between sobs
[02:31.49]Then I rap and I pray and the grief stops
[02:33.46]My ego take cheap shots
[02:35.39]Can't believe how she speak to me
[02:37.32]She talks like it's neat pus*ing buttons like key fobs
[02:39.12]Well good day, *****, I'm writing this beat knocks
[02:41.41]Tryna pen classes like Reeboks
[02:43.10]Or Greek thoughts or a Fleet Fox
[02:45.01]And teach a good message like Aesop's
[02:46.84]That stick to my skin just like grease spots
[02:48.94]So forget all the things that my dreams cost
[02:50.71]Yeah, I'm getting my kicks, **** some clean socks
[02:52.59]Ice cold, we living like freeze pops
[02:54.42]Cause I'm gonna take licks while I defrost
[02:56.59]Divest from your demons, and weak stocks
[02:58.38]And invest in your team 'til your scene pops
[03:00.26]It might mean wearing jeans 'til the seam pops
[03:02.16]But don't wait like Dre did with Detox
[03:04.20]No hate enter me, I will clean clocks
[03:06.06]Like today, I can't play, I don't give *****
[03:08.00]I won't change what I say, take your screenshots
[03:09.81]Yeah, I'm just being me that's what she wants
[03:11.83]And this might seem weird cause a dream stops
[03:13.72]When you wake up but for the sake of
[03:15.51]Finding peace, no sleep when you dream jobs
[03:17.49]Now please, go be who you dream of
[03:20.72]
