[Verse 1: billy woods] It's certain things you can only learn from a fist fight I used to use a toothbrush to keep my kicks white It mattered that much In hindsight, it seemed like someone else's life Flush my system with sativas Knock off the rust and fuck standing up White phosphorus burning through the night Skeleton crew on a slaver, hug the equator tight Drone fly like metal kite Hellfire out the sky, open your book to Revelations Anyone hatin', this your chance to get right Ceremony in the church basement In the dark, waitin' for the bride [Hook: billy woods] Move like the black codes Folded paper in my coat Came home to coal fired stove, little fish fulla bones Chokin', the weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown The weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown Move like the black codes Folded paper in my coat Came home to coal fired stove, little fish fulla bones Chokin', the weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown The weeds overgrown [Verse 2: billy woods] Young boy asked if it's pressure, I bent the knee as a gesture Every move measured Weighing up while she laying there pregnant Lotta rappers worry about gender bending I just peep who asked the question I keep my own counsel, go ahead, keep the suggestions I won't even hold you Two trackin' with the super dry vocal Cyborg, they had to cut him out the car, totalled At the service, looking sad, but really mad over how much dough he still owed you (I want my money, funeral or no funeral, I want my money) A piece of the action is all I'm askin' Everything broke down into fractions The fire long dead, just the smoke and ashes Hope is an assassin, fear fill up the casket One day I woke up, everything was made of plastic She loves me not is where we landed When the music stops, folks start looking for answers Embarrassed child go looking for handguns Extended clip on the stick Ear protection for the tantrum [Hook: billy woods] Move like the black codes Folded papers in my coat Came home to coal fired stove, little fish fulla bones Chokin', the weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown The weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown Move like the black codes Folded paper in my coat Came home to coal fired stove, little fish fulla bones Chokin', the weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown The weeds overgrown, the weeds overgrown
