lyrics

"It takes a real man to admit they've spent their luck. It takes a patriot to pull the the pin when struck. If you're savvy with your earnings, you'll prevail, and as you age, you'll learn what privilege entails." But which dirt road will be too overgrown to discern where we strode? Betray the confidence the crystal ball foretold. Acknowledge that all prophecy is bought and sold. Replace dependence with acceptance, play the fool - through mockery of self, transmute the golden rule. Can I reassemble what was spoken? I find that truer words were never broken. When probability proves false... please melt down your silver spoon. I have no inclination to consume. You're a shell of a guiding light - when cracked, the black hole is revealed. A fragment of a framework bent shapeless from the weight of mass appeal. Will I awake to another world, just out of range of all the constructs of the starstruck? Turn the page. Earmarked in the recorded works of profiteers as an example of genetic memory suppressed.
