I pledge allegiance to myself Food shelter and health Let me find a beach full of seashells to sell Put your oxygen mask on first, before you offer me help I've got receipts made of scar tissue Got the vision of somebody going fishing in the dark When I start up the motor, it still turns over But nowadays, a little bit slower Never been afraid of getting older I'm much more nervous about these public servants Kill the lights and shut the curtains You ain't a real lion if you love the circus Looking at myself like "whats the purpose? " It's when I started to hallucinate Trying to touch the surface and re-cooperate You should've seen the look on my face when I was losing my faith Y'all got me feeling hesitation, embarrasment I might be the last generation of grandparents I know that I've been fortunate for all the opportunities Disproportionately disappointed in the human beings I get it, respects of dust, at the bus stop busking for extra crust Like fuck it, you can sacrifice me to the weather If you promise that you'll let my songs live forever
