December 26th, 2017 - A Certain Fact

lyrics

This shit was predicted by Nostradamus
The minute this criminal took the oath of office
He’s so dishonest
The lowest common denominator
This shit was thrown upon us
We learned our votes were garbage

We hurt with broken hearts
While holding on to purpose
While a third of our populace
Made their obnoxious voices heard

Basket of deplorables,
Understatement of the decade
They lack the mental fortitude
To back up what their men say

That’s why Medaforacle and I
Made a song about their dissonance
The willfully ignorant
This shit was imminent

didn’t take 100 days
To paint the colorway
And cut away
The fucking safety nets
That stopped these ugly banks

Not playing dumb today
I bit my tongue in vein
We coulda done away with a lot of noise
Like rubber paint

We’re bouncing off the walls
It ain’t the fucking same
There’s levels to insanity
I climb the rung to sane

A pint of rum and sage
Burn the midnight oil
I write another page
Cursed with inner toil

Emerged a simmered boil
The life of a hog - to the winner go the spoil
All righteousness lost

Right from the start
We were doomed
We saw the sonic boom
It was huge
Took up a lot of room

A lot of dudes
Conspiring,
Like “why’s the rocket blue”
Flying horizontally
Relying on their proof

Like true, but if the earth was flat
With no curves in tact
I think we would’a heard’a that by now
If it’s a certain fact

Man, 2017 the dark ages
The human centipede of star gazing
How’d we go from Mark Twain to Darth Vader
Heartsbane, to arcades, atari to sega
Darwin to to mega churches

We invented purpose
Spot the head of serpents
Thoughts to let in curses
The consequences urgent

We’re followin a person
Wallowing in hurt, bent
Not that it’s deserved

The squeaky wheel gets the grease
The wobble gets to turnin
I woulda thought of better words
I’m not a bitter person

A positive insurance
Neutral in it’s impact
Cognitive deference
Youthful in the synapse

Useful in its syntax
Javascript concurrent
Dishonoring
