Life is such a beautiful picture until it ain't We wanna' live in color but death has a funny way To dry yo' paint Leaving the corners of yo' canvas blank Until we stiffen like paper maché We all gotta palette of morbid matters to try and balance Ducking the splatter Ain't no dodging the Reaper's capture So we scatter to nearest liquor store And leave it for our livers to absorb The pain we pour by the pint or the quart Skipping court in the morning So I'll probably have a warrant by noon But I'm still hungover the moon And my eyes look like typhoons You died sooner than I assumed The local news at your fune holding interviews At inopportune times Pass me the moonshine So I can take a swig Petitioning for kin to resurrect like come again Ever since you kicked the bucket I been out here cluckin' Selling chicken dinners with a cola soda Whatever the cost to cross you over To the other side where the Lord resides Or the devil dwells If I die before I wake Please speak well of my name I ain't ever say that I was a saint But I hope you see beauty in the pictures I paint If I die before I wake Please speak well of my name I ain't ever say that I was a saint But I hope you see the beauty It's only money for our memories and some candy yams at the repass Because the coffin cost 3 stacks But we glad to do it So we macaroni cheese for cameras despite the damage done Running round the kitchen like chickens with missing heads Pouring liq' for the dead On the plot where they're buried Building credit card debt For the heck of it Keeping up with them Jeffersons My depression is so evident 'Cos you ain't ever coming back and I lack a lot understanding Life is so demanding Like why I gotta have the right reactions When they offer condolence In the heat of the moment While the casket is open I was hoping it was just another dream Inspired by a Tarantino scene, but it seems I'm gulping pulp fiction A 5th of liquor sipping from a pill addiction My God If I die before I wake Please speak well of my name I ain't ever say that I was a saint But I hope you see beauty in the pictures I paint If I die before I wake Please speak well of my name I ain't ever say that I was a saint But I hope you see the beauty Aye From creation to cremation We all fallen and flawed Creatures craving the truth before our fateful expiration Proper nouns navigating improper places People and things that rehash tragedy Hoping loved ones lives happily Ever after afterlife concludes Therefore be sure to choose Which of the two masters you're after It's time
