"extended walrus (rap intro)"
intro:
..warning..
sources now confirm that upwards of six billion people were affected today by the interdimensional presence of
extended walrus.
(i still get to bust a verse, right? .. ok)
flip ducket word bucket inside out
king muffet don't touch it- it's all out
he gave it all up for the cold clock repair man
he opened up a can of dead worms and it scared him
then he ran into the corner with a needle
exploding silver bottom cannon floating on a beetle
he knew that it was bad so he looked for something worse
hallelujah was the time so he went into reverse
and when he seen the signs then he thought to change his ways
and be a real good boy for the rest of his days
he came upon his path and he seen a man they call this:
oops.. just forgot, oh yeah that's right..
extended walrus.

"hold strong"
v.1
as a boy i knew that i'd
have to learn real quick or die
get a job and learn the world
find some love from a loving girl
walk the line and tuck my shirt
but get caught up with friends who do dirt
the cops were there to arrest us fast
with a bottle of tequila and a bag of grass
chorus:
but we all hold strong
and that's why we get along
cause we all held strong
for so long
v.2
at some point became a man
and got to do what grown ups can
waste myself on smoke and drink
wake up sick with myself to thank
smile and laugh or frown and cry
shadows fade- the sun will rise
children's toys- the values gone
your quest takes flight, it won't be long
chorus:
we all hold strong
and that's why we get along
cause we all held strong for so long
for so long
bridge:
the letter i received..
how could words you write be wrong?
chorus:
cause we all hold strong
and that's why we get along
we've all held strong for so long
for so long

"escape the gravity"
v.1
it's always meant to be the same
you gotta have someone to blame
for the nuclear attack today
it's never one is all in pain
always good but they're insane
it's the messenger of death we reign
chorus:
oh god, we know not what we do
the keeper locked inside his zoo
will you fly with me in dreams?
can you escape the gravity?
v.2
it's always got to be profane
when i fuck this shit
and when we laugh it's just to hide the shame
if only to embrace the sky
if only to laugh, love and die
chorus:
oh god, we know not what we do
the keeper locked inside his zoo
will you fly with me in dreams?
can you escape the gravity?

i mind

"i mind"
v.1
how is it right to say we own
the captured feelings we were shown?
affecting promises to our own.
why do we feel it's so unfair?
is it such a crime for us to share?
the simple joys in life so rare..
so we gotta care.
chorus:
super secret lyric maker
painting pretty pictures take her
to the wishing well and sing
woven words for plastic dreams
will you change your worried mind..
mind.. mind..
i mind.
v.2
it's all about choice, i choose to care.
what will the say when you're not there?
do you think their eyes stay fixed and stare?
and what are we if we're not just kids
trying to inspire all our friends?
i can see it's fun, but it's pretend..
it's all pretend.
chorus:
super secret lyric maker
painting pretty pictures take her
to the wishing well and sing
woven words for plastic dreams
will you change your worried mind..
mind.. mind..
i mind.
break:
(you can own this life,
but you can't own the music notes)
big warning! i got's super powers!
i'm coming in hot, crushing souls,
(got this flower in my ear.)
all the fear disappears
when it's clear
you're not here,
you're not present,
you're not giving.
grab a beer and
talk about you and how i'll help you next.
but there's no ill intentions- it's just lack of respect-
lack of concern- NOT thoughtful
ungrateful- that's the motto
silver feeted ghosts return to learn and burn
a toasted bottle.

how you feel?

"how you feel?"
v.1
far down deep inside in tunnels as to hide
a self sustaining foam will bubble into stone
and heaven holds us there
with angst and self despair
a nest with all birds flown
waiting to come home
chorus:
from yourself you cannot hide
is this the rest of your life?
someone that you'd rather be
someone that followed their dreams
we don't feel anything
we don't feel anything
we don't feel anything
v.2
is it just your pride of faith which you subscribe?
holding on so dear to help with why were here
and can we change your mind?
a roundish red stop sign
a nest with all birds flown
waiting to come home
chorus:
from yourself you cannot hide
is this the rest of your life?
someone that you'd rather be
someone that followed their dreams
we don't feel anything
we don't feel anything
we don't feel anything
v.3
damn dog, why you hurtin' so bad?
got that bigger trigger finger folding days into a bag
and you dreamed of bigger things
a happy life when you were small
you were given healthy options
but you had to have it all
i recall being kids-
gettin' drunk and drugs were nothin'
havin' fun and feelin' good
that joy had to amount to something
yes it does, but the cost is much greater
mountains higher than the love then known to us
endorphin's burning in the fire-
how you feel?

and i want you
to know that i care
and i'll be there
if you need

and i want for you
to know that i care
and i'll be there
if you need

and i want for you
to know that i care
and i'll be there
