Leave By

lyrics

Leave by

Sour grapes
Rat's and snakes
I live by
I live by

Acid in open cheeks
I live by
I live by

With open arms and eyes closed
You can't fool whoever it is you're talking to

Caught ya wishing it'd be just a tiny bit easier
but you know how it be by now
Comfort come with a steady dose of slavery
That may be, but we could sure do without

Out
Down & Out
Down & Out
Down

Didn't ya say you were the last of them?

No complaints
Open wake
I leave by
I leave by

(For you and yours, don't leave another man's dream-up to clean-up)

Ascertain
We all might die here in vain
I leave by
I leave by

(Hold hand to feel safe, open them to break free)

We're a faded carbon copy of a man without a face
He don't know your name
All created in the image of what we've never seen
By design we're incomplete

(Learn the language of vulnerability. They will understand)

All things considered, don't nobody like to visit
when you're sick, without wearing some kind of gown
Everybody act a doctor, but none got the cure
Y'all can leave and lemme stay down

Down,
Down, Down
Down, Down
Down

Didn't ya say you were the last of them?

This death might not be in vain

(Not on my watch, not anymore, you're not)

I recall you saying you was ready for a truth this loud
That, if we're bound to get fucked in the ass, then we might as well lay down

Down
Down, Down
Down, Down
Down

Didn't ya say you were the last?

Not anymore, you're not
Never alone
You're never alone
