[00:40.83]I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp
[00:43.56]I live life like the captain of a sinking ship
[00:46.25]The one thing that i can guarantee
[00:48.46]I'm like a stepping razor, i suggest you stay fair with me
[00:51.23]Been payin dues for a decade plus,
[00:53.71]Before that i was just another face on the bus
[00:56.48]Tappin my foot, to the beat on the radio
[00:58.98]Dreamin 'bout the mic and the money and the ladies
[01:01.84]Oh mom, i promise im gonna be large
[01:04.13]Someday im gonna stop tryin to borrow your car
[01:06.80]Gonna go far, with charisma and skill
[01:09.45]Until they put my face on a million dollar bill
[01:12.25]Atmosphere, its just a ten letter word
[01:14.73]Discretion is the name of my cement-feathered bird
[01:17.37]And if you didnt hear, fuck whatevers heard
[01:20.07]I think you got the sickness i suggest you get it cured
[01:22.81]Caught up in the mix, of a bottle full of fix
[01:25.33]Im gonna hobble down the street 'til i reach knob creek
[01:28.00]Its not that i dont like you, i just dont wanna speak
[01:30.68]You fuckin freak
[01:31.65]Now keep your days out my week
[01:33.30]The world keeps a balance, through mathematics
[01:35.95]Defined by whatever youve added and subtracted
[01:38.52]Im pushin on the hammer, to trigger the brain
[01:41.01]Embrace how i live it, god loves ugly
[01:43.98]God loves ugly...
[02:05.25]Once upon a time in minneapolis, yo
[02:07.66]I damn near had to steal the show
[02:11.12]I stepped on the stage, who is it?
[02:13.71]My names slug ive come to kill a couple minutes
[02:16.14]Whats up with the way, that everybody gathers around each other
[02:19.71]So they can steal each others sound
[02:21.10]If its all about gettin down with the get down
[02:23.72]How long i gotta wait for these fools to sit down?
[02:26.43]Appears more clear in its simplest form
[02:28.92]Nobody sees tears when youre standing in a storm
[02:31.69]Abandoning the norm, and handling the harvest
[02:34.41]Measuring the worth by the depth of the hardships
[02:36.94]I welcome all the hatred you can aim at my name
[02:39.58]I held on to the sacred ways of how to play the game
[02:42.11]When the soldiers started runnin short on rations
[02:44.98]I began tappin the egg, to spark the hatchin
[02:47.66]Make it happen
[02:48.39]And take this captain to the gallows
[02:50.09]I keep steerin us into an area thats shallow
[02:52.79]Talkin to my shadow, he advised me not to worry
[02:55.32]He said i should plant my tree and let it rise out of the fury
[02:58.03]So give me some light, a little love and some liquid
[03:00.74]Im gonna creep through the night
[03:02.10]And put a plug in the spigot
[03:03.20]And when the water grows
[03:04.55]And the dam starts to overflow
[03:05.89]Ill float atop the flood, holding on to my ugly
[03:19.36]Why scream, when you can lose yourself inside the wide-screen
[03:23.54]Let life be a bowl of melted ice cream
[03:25.97]Or be the deer thats caught in my high beams
[03:28.66]Im rollin with the lights on, scared stiff
[03:31.38]Reality is just too much to bear with
[03:33.97]Paranoid, walkin around careless
[03:36.42]No wonder youre in love with your therapist
[03:39.22]Go to sleep my little time bomb
[03:41.06]
