Deca - Surface Tension lyrics

[Verse 1] I was just lounging Staring at the clock, right? I could feel the world turn Burn when it got right Something came over me Through me, splattered on a loose sleeve Profusely, the youth need To follow where the truth leads I've walked the wild side with Lou Reed With demons pitching pills for dirt cheap Saying, “I've got what you need.” Low down dirty sinful Heavy bankroll Worked every angle Converse with angels They say these are the end days A time of retribution We point to the sky And chart the planet's movements But can't measure the cause and effect of thoughts And would rather stargaze the night away And play connect the dots Or watch Asher Roth child on the Magnavox And all your favorite rappers throwing up the rock I'm at a loss It's not a diss it's more Dismissive of big business Not in my interest [Hook] The night I was born The Moon turned to fire red My poor mother cried, “the Gypsy was right” And she fell down, right down dead [Verse 2] Yep we're mislead We don't get a badge of honor for walking the cliff's edge Either wind up dead or sick in the head Get your mind right Infinite potential with the physical is finite I'll stick a needle in the all seeing eye Release the most high, that you beasts demonize We all fall and rise Alter our lives And tear down the walls of your large enterprise My mind's eye's opening wide Catch a fork-tongued demon by the tail But all joking aside I do not make deals with devils Soul rebel The Moon's a fiery red It's raining rose petals And everything's dreamlike Everything's changing The fisher of souls will pull a shark out the main stream I'm maintaining I was cool and now I'm staring at the clock and got lost in a daydream (uh huh) x 3 [Hook] The night I was born The Moon turned to fire red My poor mother cried, “the Gypsy was right” And she fell down, right down dead [Verse 3] In the belly of the beast Where police on a centipede Creep in the street Then they reach for their piece and squeeze And then the enemy is gonna sleep When they see an enemy's in the deep I'm in need of release When the evil feeds on the meek Gotta keep both feet on the ground Speak through the beats that pound Coveting a district, city, and town Hold me down If you don't hold me down Put these devils in a hole in the ground Unholy ground Take a look around Tell me what the world needs now I was just lounging, I could feel a turn I could feel it breathing deep Universal man, with the world in the palm of your hands Now's no time to sleep (wake up)
