[Sweatshop Union, Claire Mortifee - Listen Up lyrics]
Aha, listen up aye aye
Aye aye
Listen up while the soundscape resonates
Loud enough until your ear canal levees break
We live a figure eight, a never-ending cycle
Reincarnate, until faith leads you right to
An open path
Hoping at last this is your night to
Be at ease, time to dream, no need for Nyquil
Let the mind idle
So vital but keep it runnin'
So I hold on to the moment
Keep my poem from roamin'
Keep my memory soakin'
Keep my thoughts focused
I’m not fit to be noticed
But when my time’s chosen
I’ll be ready to open
Already gone through my cope
Already dealt with my shit
I was a kid, still a boy in a sandbox
I was a kid, with toys but no pops
That never slowed me down though huh, nah
So I’m staying on the go
Stay in a mind state no one knows
About they chose to close that door
I suppose they’ve been told about
Social tact, so compact, soaking out
We’re stuck in the past
Too fast, one time for the passed at last
Too bad I’m throwing the same
Blood in their veins
Flowing and so when they numbin' my brain
I believe that one of y'all
Made me come and then, we numb from pain
Yeah, who will decide to change
Her lanes and take reins
Know what I’m sayin'?
You are a never-ending wave form
You stay buzzing through the great storm
You are the life force
And you are the fire that burns
To the sky above your tongue
When I touchdown, I’ll take it in
All the spaces wider than the wind
If I let them, they will suck me in
So I slow down as I slowly begin
Now I lay here, watch the stars collide
With a big burn, as they glide they might
If I let them, they will turn me blind
So I reached out soon as I paid the price
Woah oh, I’ve seen the back of your head
As you’re walkin' away from me to
Get your butter and bread
I’ve heard the stories you told
Trying to convince me that we
Will never grow old
I've smelled the tar on your tongue
You’ve been drinkin' from my arteries
When my spirit is numb
And I’ve failed, as hopeless as you
And until you understand that’s why
We’ll let 'em go true
We are all connected with each
And everything you do
All I fear in love is to forever be entombed
You are a never-ending wave form
You are a never-ending wave form
Aye aye
Listen up while the soundscape resonates
Loud enough until your ear canal levees break
We live a figure eight, a never-ending cycle
Reincarnate, until faith leads you right to
An open path
Hoping at last this is your night to
Be at ease, time to dream, no need for Nyquil
Let the mind idle
So vital but keep it runnin'
So I hold on to the moment
Keep my poem from roamin'
Keep my memory soakin'
Keep my thoughts focused
I’m not fit to be noticed
But when my time’s chosen
I’ll be ready to open
Already gone through my cope
Already dealt with my shit
