"Are we ever truly fool proof?…Empty husks sport trinkets plush - when tapped, Got juice from your roots..."

lyrics
(Intro)
People really don’t get it
Show them the truth and they turn it on you
Crucify the messenger for opening eyes
Would rather be fed a diet of lies
How long do we have to wait to plant seeds
And grow one by one x3
(Verse 1)
Who made the turn, cross Judas, burn em straight to a urn, a few thrusts - hidden blade helped him learn, though trust is earned, the closest to you could lose screws& put tools to you.. watch those close, are we ever truly fool proof?…empty husks sport trinkets plush - when tapped, Got juice from your roots.. politics and gangs intersect - to beat a red & blue truce.. peep mathematics & trace interests best by clocking habits.. those concerned with status meet disaster, sink below the cab-i-nets, a leech who drains is target practice for these thought patterns… just keep chattering, havoc when mandibles crack, grab bandages.. silence through the wire on the goods since that’s been acquired// mute attire, dodge the open - fire, running - perspire, far from shining hero who inspire, maybe ire - deep in self for lack of wealth.. sought prosperity, got placed ..right back on the shelf, this ain’t the life I envisioned - i need help..new choices// until then - it fill in - a notch on my belt
(Bridge)
The hatred and evil
Preprogrammed
I want to trust
But who are you really?
On the cusp
Is this how life is supposed to be?
Peep the forces controlling these
Situations..
Move according
It’s time for judgement
Living tribunal
(Verse 2)
In any iteration you are facing an abomination, pure onslaught of peace as we imagine creation, coping mechanisms: matinee neck in Cinemarks, lean back, rum & coke in double cups, don’t be a narc - but look it stained you, ruing with the bill, plot of ozark - //“detained who?”, send em to the penal under this patriarchy.. and you should know they only goal to stop your heartbeat, so as the head-line on the mar-quee..on a windy day, don’t crash the yacht to hop on jet skis, depending on position if you fibbing or Lewinski, don’t tempt these - fates, where you crept & plundered that earth’s depth, while other’s slept - face & smile; now exposed as Johnny Depp.. threw a stick - in a pit - got bit for what you pirate, look deep into my eyes and curse that Jujutsu Kaisen, in the morning - i’m rising - //wipe the cold out my eyes on a mattress, comprising …my soul… stand tall - don’t fold we talking practice
