Lyrics

I was plucked from the sky
pulled down into the the black goo
an evil surrounded me
now I’m trying to pull my way back through
maybe I was running too fast
too locked in, too cocky, too close to the sun
needed to be burned on down
well that’s how it turned out
I’m not sure if I believe in god
but there’s a force that’ll even odds
leave your logic flawed
leave you saying (insert black block_ PAPES)
maybe that was code
pull me off the road because I went too far from home
maybe that was wrong but I’ll never know
it goes exactly how it goes
and supposing doesn't get me closer to what would’ve been
tally the wins, rally the loss, put wind in the sails
me and my chick, she’s bad as fuck, we on that no matter what shit
we ain’t noting to fuck with
same as the crew I grew up with
from the downswing to the uptick
the mud don’t get as thick as the blood
and a motherfucker don’t quit ever he just learns how to trudge
so where you are it’s a call out, roof gone, walls out
no sir, no sale, I will see you in hell
from the bell to the tomb I’m all out
even lost on the rockiest road I wouldn't take another way
even on the darkest night, even on the coldest day
and I’ll never know if that was right until it’s too late
so I guess I’ll do this my way
I vibrate like five strings doing solos around the whole globe
and I expand like rubber bands show you how low can a soul go
and I snap in half and I put it back, no illusions
I go into with no delusions
I don’t know it I just fucking do it, ain’t nothing too it
fear has got no business here
but it don’t disappear it just lives near
and I let that settle, prove my mettle
and I never peddle that sentimental
call my manager, tell him I don’t give a fuck
should’ve quit years ago
a buck? god damn it I do what I love
and all my heroes are broke
even lost on the rockiest road I wouldn't take another way
even on the darkest night, even on the coldest day
and I’ll never know if that was right until it’s too late
so I guess I’ll do this my way
I push until I break then I find me some tape
been that way since I was a boy
and I found that it snaps when it’s wound too tight
now I do it lightly with time to enjoy
when I get picked off by scope or claw
I land with style like I planned it out
make it work like hand-me-downs
with a fresh new cut to sing about
even lost on the rockiest road I wouldn't take another way
even on the darkest night, even on the coldest day
and I’ll never know if that was right until it’s too late
so I guess I’ll do this my way

I was plucked from the sky
pulled down into the the black goo
an evil surrounded me
now I' m trying to pull my way back through
maybe I was running too fast
too locked in, too cocky, too close to the sun
needed to be burned on down
well that' s how it turned out
I' m not sure if I believe in god
but there' s a force that' ll even odds
leave your logic flawed
leave you saying insert black block_ PAPES
maybe that was code
pull me off the road because I went too far from home
maybe that was wrong but I' ll never know
it goes exactly how it goes
and supposing doesn' t get me closer to what would' ve been
tally the wins, rally the loss, put wind in the sails
me and my chick, she' s bad as fuck, we on that no matter what shit
we ain' t noting to fuck with

and a motherfucker don' t quit ever he just learns how to trudge
