[Intro: Sample]
"I have locked and barred the door
There is danger in the devil's hall"
[Verse 1: E L U C I D]
This piano is played underwater by a slave ship's suicide jumper with 8 fingers
And no he didn't take a selfie
I'm squatting at the final frontier of gentrification
To the east
Sound bath meditation in a form of vacant
Breaking bread, ribs, and hundred dollar bills
Bank tried to scoop a thread
Went in my past without a will
Found her face down
Blood pool, air thick and sickly
Frigid December morning, please come quickly
Black's is (?) fast on taxes
No flags, no guards, no masters
I don't have to do a thing but stay black and die
That's what my mother say
Flow gon' run away
Arcade on the deuce, Winter '81 over proof sound
I don't feel my age
Day's spill into the next
And the churches keep burning
And the churches keep burning
There's work and that's just where I come from
It's not that something's up, but something's up!
Back in our minds again
Tell me what's happening
This is not a revelation
These are not revelations
Wages ascend, don't get taxed
And for us, even suspicion might not earn a trial
Ridin' on an island, wildin'
Livin' off young lions with crooked guards and lightning
I guess we'd rather take our own life tonight
