Days of pain that leave your body shaking

Make you want to tear a hole right through the door

Life will peak when rhythms speak

Steady courses end in better days

And you'll feel the loa coursing through your blood

See the changeling

Shifting and shaping

Always there putting on a show

The hallowed sound

From roots deep in the ground

No hurricanes or floods can keep it down

Face to face with troops of doppelgängers

Never really knowing just exactly who to trust

Speek your mind, but mind your speech

When ladders give, you'll lose your teeth

And it's a long way to the bottom rung

You can fake it

You might even make it

But the damage that was done ain't gone

It's so laissez-faire just let it be

You couldn't understand it if you're not from here

The vestiges claimed before we came

Back shame upon your pitiful pride

Can't you look in my eyes?

You fucking goddamn joke

Go take another toke, a line, a bump

Your broken record skipped

We just flipped the script

We'll take it back

Day to day it's keep up with the joneses

And from the looks of things, I see you jones for more

Keep denying things of common knowledge

The spotlight shines on you forevermore

You can shake me

You might even break me

But you'll never keep me on the floor

The hallowed sound

From roots deep in the ground

No hurricanes or floods can keep it down

You can't shake me

You can't break me

You goddamn joke
