Two Trains

My life’s coal and embers, flicker and remember
Hardest winter so I wonder as I wander if I’ll find the summer
Before I surrender to the end that always threatens to
Rip between the sheep and the shepherd Who turned us into
Can a candle in the holocaust still burn after the bomb drops
Think I can the will and reason time don’t ever stop
Body rock bed of nails last day lost ones
Long shot lone wolf holy ghost first son
Twenty six characters that con-verge from dust
Metal in my bones through the fire cause I don’t rust
See like a chameleon through the alley cause I don’t trust
Blood suckers, justice benefactors with their
And buy and sell us Because they can’t be us
They wanted our
I close the door cause my skin’s still porous
They cannot ignore us and they never tried to warn us that there’s
Two trains running on the track
Between my heart and brain why do I pull back
I can’t
There’s no way to stop collision
It’s my fate
Def and hideous
Precision
Stop look and listen
Shit you try and spit yo
I’ma flip it iller tho
Typical cat is sickest
Don’t forget it for a second yo
___ the toughest s be the suffix
Harpoon ya hyperbole that shit don’t stick to me
Listen
Kill the karma and the mental antidote for misery
Rap chivalry will get you nowhere, clapped and not applauded
Drink lunacy from the same cup we all infected
Need to mention that your presence ain’t requested
Proceeding and make an exit
Next I cut a text from out my library
Scary stories, tunnel into darkness
Mark your books and fold the pages sorry
I’m not looking for a friend right now
I’m just looking for oblivion, how can I lose my mind and not lose the prison
Of the inhibition
Dirty water and I’m sinking
Two trains running on the track
Between my heart and brain why do I pull back
I can’t
There’s no way to stop collision
It’s my fate
Def and hideous
Precision
Stop look and listen
My brother’s back a hundred rages, made of ashes, of ancient palaces
Streetlights, empty eyes, broken roads, calluses
Shattered glass clear just like the dreams that never mattered
Miss the snakes that slither, the scattered, the blood spatters
I’m the only one alive in the alley of my mind
Don’t know why I live but I’m so scared to die
My tears are tall falling from the sky onto a corpse’s feet
Sleeping on the corner where my soul and the city meet
Need to learn some new songs the old one’s don’t stretch
Far enough to patch the whole sewage my soul forget
My name and reason Survive the dirty season
I’m still bleeding from the poem I was reading
In my man’s eye, when life was receding
You play the hand you’re dealt and yes I caught fate cheating
Math of the after
Pray for revelation
Resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation
Resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation
Resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation
Resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation, resuscitation
Breathe
