Buck 65 - The Outskirts lyrics
[Buck 65 - The Outskirts lyrics]
Young and attractive quote unquote old soul
Down in a cold hole
Playing my controlled roll
The world is mine good and bad
I never sleep, Odd charms
Firetrucks and squad cars
Struggling in God's arms
Tempted and restless, blood in my arteries
Floods in the armouries
Drugs are a part of me
Circus in fun time, surface in sunshine
Brush your teeth, don't believe
So much darkness underneath
Parties and funerals
Nurseries and graveyards
Lotteries, robberies an old
Couple plays cards
Company, visitors, frequency, rise on
Weekends, a sequence of secrets and lies
Oddities, prodigies, fireworks
Parades for me
Same story, all my decisions are made for me
Reading from loose leaf
Mislead and seduce me
I'm so full of love and bleeding profusely
Concrete and steel I remember these drums
A chill in the air, in september she comes
Pretty and sad, trying not to cry
Trying not to cry so, pretty and so sad
These are my telephone poles, my
Dark trenches, my broken windows
My park benches
Raccoons and back rooms, giants
And small children's, glitter in traffic
The outlines of tall building still
In self defence I kill yes I will
If they make me do things against my will
Some make fun of what I wear, and cut my hair
Goblins and problems I've got my share
I bitch and complain
And I admit that it's strange
Parts of my self that I wish I could change
Insecurities, complexes
X's and marking spots
Complicated beauty of abandoned buildings
And parking lots
Market thoughts and impulses
Rebellion and upheaval
Tribal indescribable pleasure in such evil
Review the proof
Crime is going through the roof
Accuse the youth
You'd puke if you knew the truth
Love me once again indistinguishable
Down in a cold hole
Playing my controlled roll
The world is mine good and bad
I never sleep, Odd charms
Firetrucks and squad cars
Struggling in God's arms
Tempted and restless, blood in my arteries
Floods in the armouries
Drugs are a part of me
Circus in fun time, surface in sunshine
Brush your teeth, don't believe
So much darkness underneath
Parties and funerals
Nurseries and graveyards
Lotteries, robberies an old
Couple plays cards
Company, visitors, frequency, rise on
Weekends, a sequence of secrets and lies
Oddities, prodigies, fireworks
Parades for me
Same story, all my decisions are made for me
Reading from loose leaf
Mislead and seduce me
I'm so full of love and bleeding profusely
Concrete and steel I remember these drums
A chill in the air, in september she comes
Pretty and sad, trying not to cry
Trying not to cry so, pretty and so sad
These are my telephone poles, my
Dark trenches, my broken windows
My park benches
Raccoons and back rooms, giants
And small children's, glitter in traffic
The outlines of tall building still
In self defence I kill yes I will
If they make me do things against my will
Some make fun of what I wear, and cut my hair
Goblins and problems I've got my share

And I admit that it's strange
Parts of my self that I wish I could change

Love me once again indistinguishable
