Brother Ali - Palm the Joker lyrics
[Brother Ali - Palm the Joker lyrics]
Have mercy on me my Lord
I'm just tryin' to walk to the corner store
And the brown and blue armies
Are always at war
What on Earth they wanna harm
Me for? I don't know
Have mercy on me my Lord
I'm just tryin' to walk to the corner store
And the brown and blue armies
Are always at war
What on Earth they wanna harm
Me for? I don't know
We raise monsters in the basement
Feed 'em shell casings and train
'em to chase us we rip most the pages out
Of the Bibles and Qur'ans
In this house it's their view we care about
Such as God has forsaken us
And from his anger gush
Forth plagues and floods
The chosen people done stoned
The great prophets
His mighty wrath stay upon us
'til the day of judgment
We spend days punchin brick walls
The scabs we rip 'em off and
Fill them bitches with salt
To all injury we add insult
Got a leather bound edition of
Shit that ain't our fault
Swabbin' down the bridges with lighter fluid
Too timid to burn 'em
We pray the lightning do it
I wear this mask 'til my face grow to fit it
Frozen in a paradigm, waitin' out my sentence
Livin' in a well
(Well) , self made Hell (Hell)
Medicated, dwellin' in a pit within myself
I waste time patiently, suffering the pain
And kindly invite you to Hell
For not saving me i see a poor victim's face
Reflected on the pawn shop glass pistol case
The breath make it foggy and
Then it gets clear
Now which metal here would fit
Best in the ear?
Have mercy on me my Lord
I'm just tryin' to walk to the corner store
And the brown and blue armies
Are always at war
What on Earth they wanna harm
Me for? I don't know
Have mercy on me my Lord
I'm just tryin' to walk to the corner store
And the brown and blue armies
Are always at war
What on Earth they wanna harm
Me for? I don't know
We gon' dig us a ditch
Move directly to the edge and
Live on that shit
File the dice so as the seven
Never hit's and palm the joker
Reverse magic trick (No shit)
Yes shit, we gon' dig us a ditch
Move directly to the edge and
Live on that shit
File the dice so the eleven never
Hit's and palm the joker
I'm just tryin' to walk to the corner store
And the brown and blue armies
Are always at war
What on Earth they wanna harm
Me for? I don't know
Have mercy on me my Lord
I'm just tryin' to walk to the corner store
And the brown and blue armies
Are always at war
What on Earth they wanna harm
Me for? I don't know
We raise monsters in the basement
Feed 'em shell casings and train
'em to chase us we rip most the pages out
Of the Bibles and Qur'ans
In this house it's their view we care about
Such as God has forsaken us
