Kitchen Table

(альбом: Live From The Tape Deck - 2010)

Vowed to never live on my knees
Never beg, I'm never fed, off of 'gimme' or 'please'
I never bled off of crawling
So if I should bleed it's from my hands dry walling
Holding this shit is me
Every wall that I installed, every entrance you see
I drew it all and through it all, up to just what it be
Knew it all, true to all, moving on, true to form
Forgiveness is at the end and I got endings to weave
Attaching 'em where they meet at
Back to where my lean at
Dreams got wings but they clipping 'em where they breathe at
So fuck trying to sing I'm trying to swing where the seat's at
And know that anything that I bring, I'm trying to read that
I try to fight a feeling but the feeling subsides
And the high that you've been given when you get to provide
Is to find the ambition that you wish to revive
Live and die, but while you living, keep the kitchen in mind

And remember, the place mats is laid where they should be at
And everybody made they way to where they seats at
Feel like all eyes on me from how they need that
Can't be mad at 'em cause here is where they eat at
So me, I'm trying to decorate the kitchen table
And put enough around for everyone of them mouths
I mean, I'm just trying to decorate the kitchen table
And put enough around for everyone sitting down
I mean...

The process of providing and trying to find it
And words passing the margin and contemplating consignment
And circle backwards and forwards and falling for the reminder
Then stressing over these plates and the utensils that's beside 'em
You counting three times and hoping you counted wrong
Till all of the count is gone
And all that you counted on ain't on the table
And you was suppose to make sure that was decent
And now all this decorating is needed
Never waited to see it cause ain't nobody waiting to be seated
And they ain't trying to change up how they eating
Man of the house entails bringing home anything but a reason
Cause a reason can't clear away the grievance
So fuck all that
Before departing I'll turn into G. Garvin
As long as the plate is straight I can deal with the deeper margins
Long as I'm 808 I can deal with being a target
Long as we ate today you can call it what you call it

But remember, the place mats is laid where they should be at
And everybody made they way to where they seats at
Feel like all eyes on me from how they need that
Can't be mad at 'em cause here is where they eat at
So me, I'm trying to decorate the kitchen table
And put enough around for everyone of them mouths
I mean, I'm just trying to decorate the kitchen table
And put enough around for everyone sitting down
And remember, the place mats is laid where they should be at
And everybody made they way to where they seats at
Feel like all eyes on me from how they need that
Can't be mad at 'em cause here is where they eat at
So me, I'm trying to decorate the kitchen table
And put enough around for everyone of them mouths
I mean, I'm just trying to decorate the kitchen table
And put enough around for everyone sitting down
I mean...
