Parables

[Verse 1: E L U C I D] Gold-plated circuitry out the mud I couldn't fit OJ's glove To show up Earth before the flood Tasting my own blood The ark was a DNA bank of fauna A circle of crab floating atop the water Heaven's horn bellowed Wayne Shorter Noah didn't bear a single daughter All the borders were liquid World passport at the mouth of the river bathing in whole milk Linen and silk Mouth full of salt and silt washing over Dying sons/suns of a thousand Octobers Closer The Father landed at the highest peak Dead Sea cliff divers saluting east Don't let the rocks cry out first, on God Teeth and tongue on mountain face, lips and e'rything Talkin' 'bout showing love [Hook: billy woods] It's funny how significance make a difference Notice parables of three and every other inference It's funny how significance make a difference Notice parables of three and every other inference It's funny how significance make a difference (Did I ever tell you I buried my father twice?) Notice parables of three and every other inference [Verse 2: billy woods] At the wake, awake in a dream The motorcade curved like a snake through the streets Black men in black suits, heavy heat White handkerchief The podium thick with liars and thieves You were sick in your seat Jackals was ready to eat The hole was very neat The second, a wound in the earth Raw dirt, heat The simple hut, elders offered snuff Fresh slaughtered meat Most stiff to those gorgeous sour bear hits Tears streaming, begging the curse to live I was a kid I was a young man when they buried him again On the ancestral lands that wasn't even his So, for you, I promise no hollow words, swallow mine Huge birds wheel in the sky The sea spray sting, burnin' my eyes I won't let them bury you once [Hook: billy woods] It's funny how significance make a difference Notice parables of three and every other inference It's funny how significance make a difference Notice parables of three and every other inference It's funny how significance make a difference Notice parables of three and every other inference [Verse 3: AKAI SOLO] Y'all, y'all Purple hearts given out for the skilled servant Temper out the callous with the cool minds A fool heated Missteps and morals has got me frigid-hearted Livid over how we living You say that we deserve better, but Look at what we doin' for ourselves Out us, out to get you once you can't get 'em in That's two a piece I advance with the plan unfasten The seatbelt seal upon packed pearl grasping While you out getting bent Crooked L, straightening my aim Ease my cerebral, whether I'm riled up Or still see, Solo still lethal Radiating something different As if I took a deep sea soak in plasma Niggas love sleeping so much They abandon they abodes in pajamas My fit resembles my resilience Piranhas can't bite through my Carhartt Heart-imbued matters more to me then a chart spot A pot to piss in or a summer fit to scroll up Arrive at bad decisions Schisms is incited by a sunken system Niggas'll claim not to see it But your vibe can't bear what you feeling Nigga, your expression dropped when the ball did [Hook: AKAI SOLO] It's funny how significance make a difference Notice parables of three and every other inference It's funny how significance make a difference Notice parables of three and every other inference
