I Could Just Do It

A cell, a seed, a dot? Emulsion paint on white? A gift to you from birth No prized possession art No purple patch, no streak Just rinse and repeat, I've been waitin' around here Waitin' around here Pull yourself up Glance around the area A door slammed shut Eyes across America A place in a fracture A place in a fracture And write yourself in Your default intrinsic The boy don't blink A vital statistic A face in a crowd But the message is out of sync What prefab story leads you wrongly? An old-world warnin' you don't learn surely The pattern is ours The proof is that it lies therein And the message is loud But the message is out of sync It what? A cell, a seed, a dot? Emulsion paint on white? A gift to you from birth A life that's long but marred Let's go The pattern is ours The proof is that it lies therein And the message is loud But the message is out of sync What prefab story leads you wrongly? An old-world warnin' you don't learn surely But I can just do it Shut off my head, don't think I can just do it But the message is out of sync
