Reality shakes me
I belong in my dreams
Reality hates me
I drink a cup for relief
I’m not the girl in the picture
She’s so much prettier
I can try to become her
I wear my smile on my teeth
That’s the way it goes
When you lose your mind
You lose control
Because it hurts inside
I’m looking for a better way
Baby come on
Okay Okay
Okay Okay
But I got it in my soul
You can have it if you try
I got the fire in my soul
I need it or I will take a pill and die
I’m not who you think I am
I’ll rap if I want to yeah
‘Cause I’m sittin’ on top
At Black Bridge with my guitar
And I’m broke as fuck with my angry dog
I ain’t got no money cause I got no job
And I don’t give a fuck I live for art
I got Pete on the beat and love in my heart
I don’t eat I starve but I keep the faith
With my little brother Mikey on the bass
I rhyme with a little bit of melody
My soul will back it up yeah
That’s the way it goes
When you lose your mind
You lose control
Because it hurts inside
I’m looking for a better way
Baby come on
Okay Okay
Okay Okay
I want it
I need it
I’m faking yeah yeah yeah
But I know that I got it in my soul

Post-punk in the Sonic Youth mold—melody covered by creeping fuzz, anchored by architectural rhythms, with lyrics both abstract and direct. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 5, 2019
