pearl searchin
sea urchins
"hold your breathe cause theres no chance of surfacing",
and for these worthless things we dive deeper,
everything was swept that he kept as the keeper,
convoluted, we do it for the fruit,
he always has a tie, but he never wears a suit
dealing with humidity, acidity and soup
screaming from the vines, in the valley hes a mute
faulted, "exalted", he called it
promise is a paragon, and liars are assaulted
stalled as we hauled up our haul from the halls
having difficulty seperating sweet from the salted,
straight forward, reset the boredom,
staring down a sword, nothing affects the warden
plunged into our peril, you get swept up by swarming
uncle tells his nephew that they'll be home by morning time.
Where were the warning signs?
tell me why this simian deserves to die
born to be this curse with a knuckle in the dirt,
sufficient means of suffering and starry eyed
sealed barrels, mystic mammals
overwhelmed, as this hoard fell to shambles
just trying prove my worth, and at the cost of earth
i must reclaim the peace thats missing from my mantle
gangplank galleons, old medallions
increased anxiety, increase the valium
the pressure of this gold on my back,
constantly creeps on the cracks of my conscience as I carry them
no oxygen, just crates
no end in sight, just weight
do what I was made to do, was I made for you
please take pity, clam city fate

our red balloon is gone,
i guess we're living out that shelf life

my island, my rules,
theres more to a king than a crown and his jewels
compounded by this town with the sound of the cruel
i'm about to drown, for a chance at his mules
crate crashers, fruit snatchers,
no silence, but no laugther
filling up the room on this track, not a serpant or a rat
can attack, but the fact of the matter is
I'm perfect, I'm god,
see if I care if you follow or not
barrels getting hollower the water's getting hot
here i was only giving innocence a shot but
no room on this top bunk,
all i needed was to help all the funk along
but now that monkeys gone, seems like somethings wrong
this is instinct, and now i'm left depended on
more defense, more guards
somebody tell me why it's gotta be this hard
i didn't come this far, in this yard, through this tar
I own it, on the back of this Enguarde
it's not about yellow, it's not about green
it's not about the size of my pride or my dreams
it's not about my family, it's not about me
it's just about justice and it just must be
krushas and kremlings unfriendly they send me
waves after wave, restart after the ending (wave after wave)
on this empty stash, not subtle
but down to facilitate a character clash
no oxygen, just crates
no end in sight, just cake
do what I was made to do,i wasn't made for you
please take pity, clam city fate

our red balloon is gone,
i guess we're living out that shelf life
