Acushnet Avenue At Night

I got up, spotted a seagull draggin' trash up the way

Fresh outta lung darts, suckin' on an energy drink

Start of a hell of a good day in New Beige

But eventually the villain came to show its face

Embarking on a slow speed chase up Mechanics Lane

Sore eyes look forward to bitter days. Bitter days

You know me better than that, than to fall for some shit, mate

You know me better than that, than to believe a single word that you say

Calling out a search for you

Up and down Acushnet Avenue at night

I'm thinking 'bout what it did to you, to face the world from a position of pain

See, now I'm on that vigilante tip

Kill thе headlights in the van like I'm Frank Castlе and shit

Yeah, I'm 'bout to find out where your master is and end his life today

Nah, for real, I only wanna be the hero again

Half a world away when things got fucked, as I was (as I was)

The teeth were deep in ya when I got wise

It was the rush of a spike

I got a bullet for what corrupted you

I'd put it in its fucking brain, I'm telling you

I wanna fix it up. Whatever hour, I'll be up

I got a bullet for what corrupted you

And the road we're traveling on; marked by perilous threats

Ignore all wisdom, hold onto your shit, my friend

Come home where you belong

I close my eyes, I only see red

It won't let me rest

Won't let me rest

Stuck in the weeds, forever I'll be

Calling out a search for you

Up and down Acushnet Avenue at night

I'm thinking 'bout what I said to you

Did my words come from a position of pain?

The sun is shining on Frederick Douglas' mural

Street pigeon watches everyone

Watches all

I wanna fix it up. Whatever hour I'll be up

I walk my heat to Nash Road

Stalk from Bird Streets to Acushnet Avenue
