Saccharine

You better hold yourself to higher standard
Believe me when I say that we have been disbanded
Of our weapons we’re unhanded
Overstepping all our mandates
I been rapping over lo-fi beats
My rhymes are tight and landing
On the beat
On the street, moving feet
Shuffle in time, Louis V
Shuffle in time, moving feet
Shuffle in time, losing sleep
Unraveling mind
Improve the peace
Bubbling crime
And who’s the beast?
A government designed food to feast on
Loving up the one percent who can never be wrong
And love I know the weather can be rubbish but we must be strong
And love I think I need encouragement to flourish in this privilege
A lack of nourishment insidious for citizens exist anonymous
I blinked and missed it
A life been and gone
We try to keep ourselves battling
Sugar-coat saccharine
Methadone
Settling
Trying to get our breath again
Hey, now
We say
Doing it this way
Hesitant intelligence
Fades to irrelevance
A life been and gone
But did you even notice it
In this world of Louis Vuitton
Post a pic, likes that makes you smile
But happy you ain’t close to it and most of it
Could become nicer if you focus on what we’ve become
Knock down all the walls that are closing in
I’m over it, breaking down the walls
Breaking all the rules and breaking all the hearts
I’m breaking a world speed record for going so fast
I need to slow down
Slow down
Pleading with you to dance with me
And maybe jam to some Motown
That soul really got me
You can never stop me
Tommy Brown, you know the sound
It’s going down properly
We try to keep ourselves battling
Sugar-coat saccharine
Methadone
Settling
Trying to get our breath again
Hey, now
We say
Doing it this way
Hesitant intelligence
Fades to irrelevance
I’m winning and wishing the villain is really forbidding
A feeling of missing beginnings
I’m feeling I’m hitting every ceiling
And sitting and thinking
And breathing and wishing this is a real feeling
I wanna believe in this feeling
I’m pleading a deeper feeling is seeming real appealing
I'm feeding the beast and the demons within
I’m bleeding and needing a bit of reason
To be forgiving villains committing
These villainous killings
And these snakes that change like the seasons
I’m militant but vigilant I must remain
Our dissidents are in their legions
Innocently tried for treason
Teach us to state your name
In the frame for fighting freedom
Stay away from certain regions
People die and no bereavement
It’s a sign of our demise
I find we hide from this
We glorify the sword fights
We’re polarised
Of this we made a fist
Ignore the thoughts to
Puff your chest
Just close your eyes and
Take a breath
To elevate your mind
We try to keep ourselves battling
Sugar-coat saccharine
Methadone
Settling
Trying to get our breath again
Hey, now
We say
Doing it this way
Hesitant intelligence
Fades to irrelevance
We try to keep ourselves battling
Sugar-coat saccharine
Methadone
Settling
Trying to get our breath again
Hey, now
We say
Doing it this way
Hesitant intelligence
Fades to irrelevance
We try to keep ourselves battling
Sugar-coat saccharine
Methadone
Settling
Trying to get our breath again
Hey, now
We say
Doing it this way
Hesitant intelligence
Fades to irrelevance
We try to keep ourselves battling
Sugar-coat saccharine
Methadone
Settling
Trying to get our breath again
Hey, now
We say
Doing it this way
Hesitant intelligence
Fades to irrelevance
