Martyrdom Is So Sacredligious

from Kidnapped by Duals

/

lyrics

Pretending I was born this way
Puttin on my child-star performing face
They say product of environnment
But nowadays even the environment is a product
I'm just a commodified form pushing commodities to other commodified forms
In a digital age, where nothing is tangible
Yet everything is still quantifiable
Well riddle me this Batman,
In a world deflating on its own largeness
What is qualitative?
The mind is abstract, yet we reduce are thoughts to fixable
When measuring our neighbors by net worth rather than the worth of their character
Crabs struggle to climb on top one another in a barrel, Aren't cliches admirable
When those built to build together, become one anothers predator
Tapped in a mentality of get mine, when it's only Us that shine


They say this is whats meant to be
How sickening
How drowned in flood, while world droughting
Rome is burning
So viciously
Say I'm(hum) devilishly
I'm only turning into what time be
Does that mean I'm tryna put myself behind me?
I don't know see
I was told to, just build these boats to offer when its flooding

While we're all paddling to heaven in these lil row boats
Merrily everyone swings by throat, screaming swears their not lost
Yet no one can point to home
From which we are coming, to where are we going
No one knows
Thank Nature for gravity, how gracious this river's pull

All for show, more mantra than you can bat an eye at
Stay scared, stay strapped
Watch as yet another child falls through crack
Liken to margin ourselves (by) widening gaps
We all missed it the first time
Life is one big psych
And certainty is a blind mime
But There's a thinline between childish and childlike


They say this is whats meant to be
How sickening
How drowned in flood, while world droughting
Rome is burning
So viciously
Say I'm(hum) devilishly
I'm only turning into what time be
Does that mean I'm tryna put myself behind me?
I don't know see
I was told to, just build these boats to offer when its flooding

While we're all paddling to heaven in these lil row boats
Merrily everyone swings by throat, screaming swears their not lost
Yet no one can point to home
From which we are coming, to where are we going
No one knows
Thank Nature for gravity, how gracious this river's pull

Hustle hard homie, yeah stay grind
Make money n die, so long as you don't thrive, so long as you don't shine, so long as you don't strive
Noone cares about God's image, just that the image is mine
Fools battle with time n speed away on a leaky faucet
I hope the latest pipeline burst of oil warms you in your casket

Sacrilege, sacrilege, - sacred live...please...
