Greenhouse - Bend But Don't Break lyrics

Bend but don’t break

There’s a thin line between
Sunshine and total eclipse
I sit on the cusp of creation and apocalypse
Surrounded by novices and sinkin’
Relationships with consciousness
So capsize is imminent and obvious
Baptized in sentiments of
Insolence and nonsense
Livin’ in existence where a
Simpleton’s a godsend
‘cause they only listen to if
The bass drum is throbbin’
My mission’s enlistin’ men
Insistin’ on spillin’ knowledge
Resistance is christened with consequence
Stagnant movement
‘cause you’re choosin' the incompetent
And not the confident
The obnoxious makes me nauseous
Now ’til my coffin’s assigned
I’ll refine each line ’til I’m
Felt from Compton to Boston
This man’s skill brings a standstill
To the marchin’ often
With anvils to grills ’til you
Pass out like handbills
Proceed with caution ‘cause I erase the fake
And make the stone face soften
Dim the brightest star in the
Space you’re lost in no debate
Greenhouse makes the earth shake awesome
Some tried to separate but a
Weightless bond never breaks
Bend but don’t break

I got it in the bag, super duty tough work
While other punks lag
I rap until my lungs hurt
It only takes a little bit
To quench your thirst
You get an album’s worth of
Content with just one verse
The earth spins but the pain remains
They gettin’ radio play without
Sayin’ a thing
Some of 'em even think they free
But I think they slaves
‘cause the only thing they rhyme
About is whips and chains
The most anticipated gotta be us
Some work harder
But none work smarter than us
I took twelve months off, got property up
I’m home chillin’, not on the road
Packed in a bus rockin’ mics, lovin’ life
Wishin’ I could chill
Not a whole lot of options
Gotta pay them bills
Fans is tellin’ me I’m sick but
Not to go take pills
‘cause they like me how I am
And want me to stay ill, i’m like
Thanks, bro, even though we strugglin’ daily
The industry’s a bitch but she havin’ my baby
So not matter how I feel
Gotta treat her like a lady ‘cause she ‘bout
Her paper on that old fuck you pay-me
Got me ‘bout to be a broke bum ’til I’m 80
She crazy, but I won’t let her break me
Bend but don’t break
