Residuum versuri

Versuri Navy Blue & Armand Hammer – Residuum lyrics

[Verse 1: Navy Blue]
Can’t take ownership
First little fall, I know this cliff, I hope you notice me
‘Cause I can’t see myself, I’m bleedin’ simultaneously
Erasin’ thoughts, my race a heart, can’t lay it
My heart, can’t lay my head to sleep
The way ahead, like Archie Shepp, the herd of countless sheep
The crown was stripped to pieces
A stake remains, not free to roam, I can’t be on a leash
Mona Lisa eyes will follow me around a tomb, my mama womb the safest place for me
But ain’t no goin’ back, I’ve sewn the gash, and shown myself deceit
Don’t you hold mе back, the furthest front was once a bloody hеap
My reddest glare, a hyperbolic choice is within reach
Just let me go, or keep me here, ‘til suffer such a need
Have you ever dreamt awake, you can’t recall the smallest things?
The calm and subtle pond, the fallen dreams is where I sat
And took a tally of my schemes, what I crept up into
What I been through, let me through a qualm
I’ll ascend and build my totem hella tall
If it’s heaven and I’m mendin’ every flaw
While I’m livin’, keep a distance from the ball
When in doubt, you build a wall, and get it gone
Dear God, make me capable and calm
What’ll face me won’t break me, grant me problems I can solve

[Interlude]
He felt there was too much difference between him and them
To allow for common binding or a common life
Only when threatened with death could that happen
Only in fear and shame, with their backs against the wall, could that happen

[Verse 2: billy woods]
I sit with the Drac’ and listen to the rain
Watch her paint with her hair in two braids
Lamp light puddles about the place, huddled in corners like mourners at a wake
Shadows thrown and primordial cave, while I wipe the paint and looks away
Tip the ashes in my palm, I can’t find the ‘tray
Watch ‘em paint like many, on God
The dawn with talisman and charms, canvas stretched across the wall
It’s pourin’ out like a heart with the hole

[Verse 3: E L U C I D]
It’s like
It’s like a T-shirt with only one seam
I’m listenin’ to Stevie sing „Happy Birthday”
It’s not mines, though
So I play the loud enough, driving slow
Bending corners, hope it might be yours
I watch faces pass the bus stop, coming out of store
Roll the windows down, heat on, humming, children running
I throw up the peace sign to total strangers
Who told you I write with my left hand?
To no one in particular, ‘cause it felt more free like that
I am, I be, with my Cs
Laughing at more cops in vests that say „Heightened security”
I think they know we here
