lyrics

They say you'll never get nowhere with arts and crafts
The only value worth creating is expressed in charts and graphs
The confidence you fake, the money that you make
The list of things that you should've accomplished yesterday
I'm pulling hard upon the brake to bring the traction back
'Cause every minute is assumed to be spent action packed
That's a reality I aim to relieve
Reject the premise, only then you're truly free
But what does it mean, practically,
When you're rapidly declining down the paper green tree?
Because, when you were younger, never reached out for a leaf
And then you turned eighteen, forever labeled a thief
But it's never kosher 'till it's over
Four-leaf clover never getting closer
Place a personal, man-seeking-closure
Write it up into a rap song, hype it on a poster

(And you hang that poster high
So you can advertise
That you are who you want to be
And nobody else)

Melt into your bed, melt into your head
Decompose what they said 'till your face turns red
If you only had but half as much passion
For taxes as you do for waxing and slacking
Then, maybe you could learn to be somebody
Finally leave to bleach your mind key
If you kept it in the right, well I could understand
But as it is, they gotta find it in another man
The Devil said the greatest trick in the book
Was convincing the Queen to treat her moves like a rook
And what that means is things aren't as they seem
So consider tributaries as you're crossing downstream
They say a picture paints a thousand words
But I could paint a thousand pictures or just write what I heard
And the portrait of life, the quest to love and to laugh
Try to quantify that onto your motherfucking graphs
