"The Buckle" lyrics
Live from the beginning of the end of days
Could feel the doom all on my head, word to MetalFace
Led astray, collectively believing will I've held to pay
Underneath the apathy's the empathy that went away
I never hesitate to roll the boulder up the mountain
Shoulder keepin' hold for days
I'll see the view atop when I get older
It's certain that we lose, I think it's best we play
Cause neither you or I are bigger than the game
What's it mean to do it for the culture?
For the judgment of the people that you close to?
I got the spirit and I got the juice, I'm a mimosa
But I'll be a former pro before I let the former go
How I make the profit? By bein' an oracle
How I shape the optics? By leaving a story told
How my skin is this clean with a gory soul?
I'd like to think the more we know, then the more we grow
But came of age in a world that's fallin' apart
What good is Steph's range when everything's a shot in the dark?
Got to know myself and it wasn't a walk in the park
Used to want the glamor, now all I want's a walk in the park
Finally love me nationally, wanna get me out of harm's way
So how I'm supposed to reconcile our fate?
Late stage capitalistic decline, division and lies, sickness of mine
Clock's ticking on our time here
"What's the point?"
That's what our actions all screaming to me
I think we all playing emotionally dumb, hoping to be numb, more than what we'd hope we would become
Like the hope that when we was young, we all hoped we'd overcome so
How to grow up and not lose that?
Remain undefeated even when I lose, jack
Whether toasting, cheers or drowning in the boos, jack
I'm tryin live for me
I'm more than what I produce, facts
I'm tryin live for you too
Realize there's no such thing as a lose-lose
Cause you could keep your honor if you choose to
We always got a choice
And I choose me and choose you
I choose to care, remove despair, improve and bear witness to whatever limits of my fitness is
How I'm gonna be free?
WWE
Keep fighting, even if it's scripted, to the finish
Could feel the doom all on my head, word to MetalFace
Led astray, collectively believing will I've held to pay
Underneath the apathy's the empathy that went away
I never hesitate to roll the boulder up the mountain
Shoulder keepin' hold for days
I'll see the view atop when I get older
It's certain that we lose, I think it's best we play
Cause neither you or I are bigger than the game
What's it mean to do it for the culture?
For the judgment of the people that you close to?
I got the spirit and I got the juice, I'm a mimosa
But I'll be a former pro before I let the former go
How I make the profit? By bein' an oracle
How I shape the optics? By leaving a story told
How my skin is this clean with a gory soul?
I'd like to think the more we know, then the more we grow
But came of age in a world that's fallin' apart
What good is Steph's range when everything's a shot in the dark?
Got to know myself and it wasn't a walk in the park
Used to want the glamor, now all I want's a walk in the park
