Baby Gots Venom

Packed up the bottle, burned another dollar Time to see if my luck is any better than the next time Sworn my lover I wouldn't let her in I have these walls I built long ago and they're thick I'm an exit, moments flow through me Nobody's tool except my heart when its pulling I tried to cut it out once but I couldn't find a blade Sharp enough to cut through the walls I already made There's no trouble in the discomfort of the act It's the comfort in not letting you love me back The fear of giving you a world you no longer want A world that celebrates the light as much as the dark My past sits with me, it'll spawn inside the breakfast table Next to an empty chair that sits next to Banquo That sits next to the idea you can only drink careful Or sitting next to your worst fears and people you won't let go I don't know who I am Can't expect you to know better But if you can hold my hand While I'm out here tryin' to get there Waiting down, don't try to figure it out My past gon' make your mama run for the hills Cuz when the gravity hits ya I'll be right there to lift ya I can take fire without giving hate now So long to that stranger you knew So long to a new mind So long to your red, white, and blue So long to the good vibe Finish the bottle, let another burn Right now I'm good, I'll figure out my luck in the next world My lover's gone, the scorn was too much for her to understand Scorn goes hand in hand with love And I'm no yoga in the park I'll take your ideals out for a good swing dance in the dark You see, life's an illusion, she's deadly and gorgeous And I only take directions from the local blind swordsman If blood can coexist with the poison in my veins Then there's no wall that can't be given a door frame I keep it locked, not to keep you out Mama told me not to let a viper in the house Baby gots venom, I'm still a huckleberry It's the vanity that makes the samurai wary The jagged parts of my life are the only parts that I've got And they make good for building a city around the heart You wanna be right and get what you want Yeah, you wanna sure thing and a pleasant surprise I can't promise it all, but I'll give you good love And a full heart cos you the Triforce of my eye Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Waiting down, don't try to figure it out My past gon' make your daddy grab his pistol Cuz when the gravity hits ya I'll be right there to lift ya I can take fire without giving hate So long to that stranger you knew So long to a new mind So long to your red, white, and blue So long to the good vibe
