East Kearsley

Whiskey to the scalp, helps me hide my insecurities Postering like i'm a saint, enticing me are lurid things Want to be exemplary and studious but lack the image Focused on a million things and none of them are academic Squandering potential, disappointment, snipped and withering Intoxication serves to override my sensibilities Communal drunken stupors but penchant to falter silently Nightmarish visions always prefaced with sobriety Dreams are contaminants festering deep the illness came Robotrips, ganjaweed feeble attempts to kill the pain Sedated, shambling through days as if the brother's zombified Smile in your face but brittle, gotta keep up my facade Jokingly deprecating turned into defeatist lore Rotten on the inside, but what you keep repeating it for? Crying out for intervention My words slurred absurd to think that I would even listen East Kearsley Went there for collegiate life Tumblin' through drunkenness, assumption is it breeded spite Asphyxiated by the cords and tassels people seem to like For maize and blue my hatred grew can I escape these fiendish rites? Trials and tribulations but i'm faking like i'm doing fine You can keep the sermons, wake me up when there's communion wine Upright, head high, fearful but won't cave or welt Cry no more young one your legacy won't pave itself Powered through the discomfort, mortal so I ache and bruise Ever been trapped behind the eightball after paying dues? Happiness elusive unless i'm staggered or chasing nudes Empty cups are validation, binge til' I can't taste the booze Edgy, anarchistic, skipping class and breakin' rules Oblivious, but what you're pining for is in your face ya fool Enough with all this sucka stuff, cut the bluffs and toughen up Cuz sparring with the man in the mirror just left my knuckles scuffed Comprised of two bloodlines, the Smith's and the Elsy's One gave you a heart of iron, other tools for welding Selfish, when you succumb to all of that nightly moping Pugilistic duties, go and fight, don't get roped in Fires of human essence, inspired to do my best then Bioluminescent don't quell it make hooch a vestige You're prescient, colossus in mammalian flesh Mama named me soldier, so you know your bravery's set East Kearsley Went there for collegiate life Tumblin' through drunkenness, assumption is it breeded spite Asphyxiated by the cords and tassels people seem to like For maize and blue my hatred grew can I escape these fiendish rites?
