lyrics

In the bottom of bare barrels, black orchids bloom
under a twilight sky, with orange and pink hues
The only mystery is your history, where is your muse?
You've been walking way too long, in the wrong size shoes
Can I speak to the moon please? Can I speak to the moon?
Can you rearrange the lineage and break cycles soon?
You're full of rage, not only softness has its place
The Spirit enters you seven strides before the end of the race
They saw that bolt from God, the crowd cheers
This aint just another year, It's another year
Take your throne, you were made to sit on more than tube seats
This is your home, kick off your shoes and put up your feet
But if you choose to make your moves using your own rules
be prepared to fight a duel with the non-believers
They may laugh, they may sneer, but you don't eat the food
Every mickle makes a mockle, let your flowers bloom

You've got sweet dreams

Look at your shadow self, and let the darkness ensue
Imagine the universe was made in the likeness of you
Yes, these thighs touch, I might just, make magic dust
So all our grandmas in rocking chairs all stand up
hurrah, hurrah, all the way down to mooka
We ha, we ha, all over your Twitter
We wash our feet and clean our belly with the bitters
They could send the baddest of minds, it couldn't hit her, hit her
I saw omens when I was rolling, the numbers will come alive when there's focus and micro dosing
regardless of the season, all my ancestors are posted
So I'm always showing off, with every picture that I'm posting
But if you choose to make your moves using your own rules
be prepared to fight a duel with the non-believers
They may laugh, they may sneer, but you don't eat the food
Every mickle make some mockle, let your flowers bloom
