Virgo

[Verse 1]

I pledge allegiance to myself

Food, shelter, and health

Let me find a beach full of seashells to sell

Put your oxygen mask on first before you offer me help

I've got receipts made of scar tissue

Got the vision of somebody going fishing in the dark

When I start up the motor, it still turns over

But nowadays, a little bit slower

Never been afraid of getting older

I'm much more nervous about these public servants

Kill the lights and shut the curtains

You ain't a real lion if you love the circus

Looking at myself like, "What's the purpose?"

That's when I started to hallucinate

Tryna touch the surface and recuperate

You should've seen the look on my face when I was losing my faith

Y'all got me feeling hesitation, embarrassment

I might be the last generation of grandparents

I know that I've been fortunate for all the opportunities

Disproportionately disappointed in the human beings

I get it, we're specks of dust

At the bus stop busking for extra crust

Like fuck it, you can sacrifice me to the weather

If you promise that you'll let my songs live forever

[Verse 2]

You're looking for a bag of tricks

But my love is like a stack of bricks

Cobblestones and untreated lumber

I'm a father of fists, strength in numbers

And when they come for my box of dreams

I'ma finally depart from this toxic scene

No posturing, just lots of self esteem

Got you feeling like the popular queen

This ain't magic, this is fabric

And it's the type that never requires patches

And it's the fire that illustrates with ashes

It's our life, it's nothing we can't manage

Lower the arrow and take a breath

I won't waste ammo aiming at the angel of death

I might have already left, but they hear me still

With my pale knuckle grip on a steering wheel
