Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My veins are blue and connected
And every single bone in my brain is electric
But I dig ditches like the best of 'em
Yo trabajo duro
Como en madera y yeso
Como en madera y yeso
[Verse 2]
And even God herself has fewer plans than me
But she never helps me out with my scams for free, though
She grabs a stick and then she points it at me
When I say nothing, I say everything
Yeah, when I say nothing, I say everything
[Verse 3]
They put me down in a lazaretto
Born rotten, bored rotten
Making models of people I used to know
Out of coffee and cotton
[Verse 4]
And all my illegitimate kids have begotten
Thrown down to the wolves, made feral for nothin'
Quarantined on the Isle of Man
And I'm tryin' to escape any way that I can, oh
Any way that I can, oh
[Verse 5]
Damn, I have no time left, time is lost
No time at all, throw it in a garbage can
And I shake God's hand
I jump up and let her know when I can
This is how I'm gonna do it
[Bridge]
They wanna burn down the prison
They're lighting fires with the cash of the masses
And like the dough, I don't fall down
I'm so Detroit, I make it rise from the ashes
