Lyrics Open Mike Eagle – The Edge Of New Clothes
Text:
Smoke a joint, chew a shroom, I ain’t with the fairy dust
A humanist, but I don’t like new people very much
Cherry nut wood, hood eyes, seen Harriet
I cover up a landslide, pious, he’s scarier
A nice man that lost his mind, like Chuck Woolery
I’m tucked in an Amazon box, like what could it be?
I strain my achilles tryna leap sure-footedly
I stand when I rap, so a poor appear believable
The line that cut through the bullshit that people do
Yeah, make it happen like injecting progesterone
I met it to cap the tone, yellin’ ’til I’m left alone
No, past effort wasn’t wrong for the chasin’
I neglected to call in replacements for all the occasions
Responsible for all limitations, so I only put my name on the strongest of statements, yeah
Lyin’ on the edge of a cliff
Watchin’ everything fall down
Lyin’ on the edge of the world
I ain’t afraid of anything
Lyin’ on the edge of a cliff
Watchin’ everything fall down
Lyin’ on the edge of the world
I ain’t afraid of anything
Ain’t nothin’ fun, just dumb and emotional
I’m steady tryna separate fun from promotional
I’m doin’ what I’m ‘posed to do, doin’ what I wanna do
I set myself for a move and a follow through
I can see the future from the seeds and the chronicles
Read yesterday just to know what tomorrow do
Ninety parts choice and like three parts destiny
Make your own choices, self-care and your medicine
But I can see the sweat right there in the letterin’
Businesses don’t fight fair, it’s competitive
Money have you singin’ nightmares in your head again
Don’t nobody give a fuck, just let me figure out
What I ever know for sure and give a shit about
Promise when I’m gone you’ll pretend to remember me
’94 Bulls, pay your dues and your members fees
Lyin’ on the edge of a cliff
Watchin’ everything fall down
Lyin’ on the edge of the world
I ain’t afraid of anything
Lyin’ on the edge of a cliff
Watchin’ everything fall down
Lyin’ on the edge of the world
I ain’t afraid of anything
