Buddha Complex - Waitin' To Die
We all kill time only to have time kill us...go figure
Do you like peanut butter?!
YES?!
Then you'll truly love Buddha Complex's delicious grooves!
APF doesn't exist anymore. It's just Buddha Complex and maybe some other heads if they got they act write.
Lyrics
verse 1/
I bottled some whine that I fermented in since December six
teenth, embedded a message in it, threw it in the city
I stitched together broken dreams and smiles
into a security blanket to wrap my inner child
Dialect I connect, expressin being a casualty
In war between Now and whispers of immortality
I buried the week in a graveyard full of yesterdays
While rushin tomorows on the distance turn into todays
Since I was born, I've stared into eyes of storms
Cigarette smoke and mirrors with me tryin to be mature
When I'm older, I'll prolly won't be shackled by the ankles
To this ball and chain smokin gun that I battle
I was an apple that fell far from the tree
A leaf that smelled autumn in the wind early and succeeded in leavin
So what does your father's blood suggest?
I watched my family portrait tainted with the paint brush with death
My name is Buddha fuckin Complex
I'm that middleground between poet, rapper, a question and an answer
I battle fam, friends, emcees and loved ones
But I battle myself the most and take lumps son
I beat myself up and down the fuckin town
I'm the king of self torture as my heads wears rusted crown
I don't get enough Sleep cus I flirt with Death
but they're both the same schizofrenic restin breath
hook/
Interrogate my iris behind closed eyelids
And find a type of sight that flies in silence
Seasons arrive and change the time
I await naked skies and wait to die
x2
Verse 2/
My tongue has danced with other tongues with fork in roads
That lead to traffic jam of ideas forced in throats
I was forged with hope in the fires of sorrow
If I don't ghost today, I guess I'm dyin tomorrow
Rainbows are enemies of the state of mind frame
Holdin together pictures while my eyes migrate
across the memories, troubles dilatin
Head walks with migraines, end of tunnel's light waiting
James has taken L's, baked in hell
Everday wake facin self in a pavement cell
I've been my creative self since my pops taught
me sketching till his face got caught in one position
So, FUCK the World, take the bitch, rape her then
force her to give birth to the child and raise the kid
I'll name the kid Future and watch cats neglect her
Forget her, but she's mine and I will protect her
I watch people die daily, maybe I'm crazy
Maybe I'm a cry baby but I see through life way beyond
the walls of intelligence with the writing on it
circumstance bombed it with a can full of problems
And no, I will not slice a vein and try to take my life away
Or pray for brighter days, I'm the type to make
room in the corner that most cut
Now, all my inner child wants to do is grow up
Cats reduced to shells from who they used to be
I crafted and rapped humanity's eulogy
x2
