Take me to the basement

let me count the holes in your foundation

ancient ridicule system alert, kissing my lurk

the perch of rare grimace on iron mask

i remember science class

if chemistry could silence the lions laugh I'd be fine

(i fail tah) molindone up

adrenaline trades the leaves that walk the plank

before the crimson struck a match this season

meridian carpal will jolt your logic

when the burn earned its self normalcy for 20 plus

run a muck or sink, swims not an option

she applied the lipstick slow

slow enough for me to bask in

fast enough for me to wish it lasted

past my alarms cackling

the front line of its mystique's geek

doubled my proposals,bargains

for the ogers who prefer the roller coasters

(i prefer the roller coasters)

well that'll sip the blood of merry men

that'll grace holiday carols when the merry ends

barrel past the auto craft, exhale into final raft

and pirate your local rain puddle torturous

try to shake pilot fish off your dorsal fin

lets dive through the archives, synax on frantic ?

stamp it with a noteable brand to reek the profit

see i don't know hell but I've read about it often

sounds like a dope concept gone wrong

(note to caution)

Take Me to the basement

lets zoom into that war paint sensation

Take Me to the basement

lets dis-sable the cause rotation

sayin, if you choose to build or you'll die by the tools you build with

so make some noise for all your predecessors reppin dirty grill-age

Take Me to the basement

lets deny the nervous rooms of pacin

Take Me to the basement

lets review the hearts ramifications

sayin, if you choose to build or you'll die by the tools you build with

so make some noise for all your predecessors reppin sturdy grill-age

Take me to the basement

lets remove the costume you escaped in

hold up your legacies,I'll tell you which ones my favorite

hold up your elacerative innocence

I'll teach you about the perks of patience in seminar format

I've worn that hat for seven years

that's why its discolored,ragged and shitty

i ain't about to toss when its been through all these dream wars with me

ima undercover profit,thrift shop god

i rather starve then sit inside this gridlock till it parts

this tailor made rutiny ain't suitin me

it's tied around my neck like 13 loops rafter an apple box

heartless harvest of mine,I'm tired of pissin benediction

maybe it ain't healthy,but sometimes i rather burn then let you help me

it's getting brisk, brisk as fuck

my skin ain't thick enough ,these icicles ain't civil

how many freezer burn victims can one society on tilt manufacture

prior to hire,being intervening just to release last laughter

and every tree trunks made of third rails with tourniquet branches

and i learned to walk with an anchor in my back pocket

and man i read palms during even the most brief handshakes

and man i ain't alive to pull the weeds around the spotlit

well I'm wallowin, followin my little lost princess to the promise land

hollerin my potent slogan,hell if Nostradamus can

conquering these open roads with throttle pin to floor

cause Ima win right after i finish these chores

Take Me to the basement

lets zoom into that war paint sensation

Take Me to the basement

lets dissable the cause rotation

sayin, if you choose to build or you'll die by the tools you build with

so make some noise for all your predecessors reppin sturdy grillage

Take Me to the basement

lets deny the nervous rooms of pacin

Take Me to the basement

lets review the hearts ramifications

sayin, if you choose to build or you'll die by the tools you build with

so make some noise for all your predecessors reppin sturdy grillage

Take Me to the basement
