Daniel Steele - Bird in Hand lyrics

[Verse 1: Foreknown] I'm like a drug addict Strung out and bells and whistles come out with the new device I'll come with dollars by the visile Not content with wishful thinking 'cause I need another fix I'm on that 4.4, I need that 4.6 This all my possessions equals my identity Improving quality of life albeit incrementally Bigger TV equals credit card with ma**ive interest Another insecure male that's obsessed with adding inches Haters gonna hate, but consumers gonna consume I won't be happy till my man cave looks like Tutankhamen's tomb You think I'm living selfishly, then I can say apparently, you haven't paid attention to the gospel of prosperity I interpret God's love through gifts received It's my material things that give me the faith to believe So Heavenly Father don't think me an arrogant child But if you don't mind, I'll take my inheritance now [Hook: Foreknown] A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush You have enough but you choose to push You like see more, feed me, your getting greedy chasing that American dream You've got a wallet full of wishes and a pocket full of dust 'Cause you're spending all your money up on moth and rust You're always hording and binging, you getting stingy, chasing that American dream [Verse 2: JGivens] The palpitations of a heart of darkness, the horror The horrible orbit the aurora became an immigrant, consider it a horror flick Now livin' it Incubus, in more of a Hitchco*k sort of experience This ordinarily nice citizen, ha, deplorable ignorance, not so innocent is it Tales spinnin' in peril And despair roles, hungers growing, insidious I wonder which scene does the murderer murder the middleman One bird in particular in this aviary has faith in two things Luck and the colour green Let's refer to this bird as Larry And the providence of God is worthless Verses, probable I Throw the double or not Larry an ostrich, ostracized to a treadmill And his dead will And if that don't k** him, then his debt will The attack of the mob Which first, the chicken or egg His neighbours a bird of prey Ooh [Hook] [Instrumental Outro]
