​billy woods - Artichoke lyrics

It's certain things you can only
Learn from a fist fight
I used to use a toothbrush
To keep my kicks white it mattered that much
In hindsight
It seemed like someone else's life
Flush my system with sativas
Knock off the rust and fuck standing up
White phosphorus burning through the night
Skeleton crew on a slaver
Hug the equator tight
Drone fly like metal kite
Hellfire out the sky
Open your book to Revelations
Anyone hatin', this your chance to get right
Ceremony in the church basement
In the dark, waitin' for the bride
Move like the black codes
Folded paper in my coat
Came home to coal fired stove
Little fish fulla bones
Chokin', the weeds overgrown
The weeds overgrown
The weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown
Move like the black codes
Folded paper in my coat
Came home to coal fired stove
Little fish fulla bones
Chokin', the weeds overgrown
The weeds overgrown the weeds overgrown

Young boy asked if it's pressure
I bent the knee as a gesture
Every move measured
Weighing up while she laying there pregnant
Lotta rappers worry about gender bending
I just peep who asked the question
I keep my own counsel, go ahead
Keep the suggestions i won't even hold you
Two trackin' with the super dry vocal
Cyborg, they had to cut him out the car
Totalled at the service, looking sad
But really mad over how much
Dough he still owed you
(I want my money, funeral or no funeral
I want my money)
A piece of the action is all I'm askin'
Everything broke down into fractions
The fire long dead, this just smoke and ashes
Hope is an assassin, fear fill up the casket
One day I woke up
Everything was made of plastic
She loves me not is where we landed
When the music stops
Folks start looking for answers
Embarrassed child go looking for handguns
Extended clip on the stick
Ear protection for the tantrum

Move like the black codes
Folded papers in my coat
Came home to coal fired stove
Little fish fulla bones
Chokin', the weeds overgrown
The weeds overgrown
The weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown
Move like the black codes
Folded paper in my coat
Came home to coal fired stove
Little fish fulla bones
Chokin', the weeds overgrown
The weeds overgrown
The weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown

Let Him be first of all then, the hunger
Deep as david said, "When the deep
Calleth to the deep
At the noise of thy waterspouts"
Now, the deep calling to the
Deep for instance this
