A Gesture of Fearlessness
[Intro]
To hold in my hand, a capsule that contains such power. To know that life and death on such a scale was my choice. To know that the tiny pressure on my thumb, enough to break the glass, would end everything
[Verse: billy woods]
Book full of raps, crumbs in the crevices
Came back from the dead like, here go his messages
Clash with the dread, you playin' on the precipice
Bad math in his head like federal sentences
Shipwrecked on an island with the best of my еxorcists
Pussy like papaya, I survived off the еstrogen
Dark is the days we bought trees from the Mexicans
(Sad but true, it was grim, I'm not gonna lie)
Impatient, light deprivation, wastemen
Shark and bake to break in ten
Spark the cake, erryday is his birthday again (again)
They might blow out your candles, who can say?
Abhayamudra with the palm raised
Lobengula in his kraal when the whites came
Dark skies swirl, I carry the fire like it's the end of the world
(Wait, isn't it?)
That Chinese horse and Pegasus
Televangelist in the tenement
Your grand-mammy benefit check in the breast pocket
Open necked [?], bare chested, blowin' cannabis
