Lucid Optics - Life in a Nutshell lyrics

The soil I walk on covers how many layers of Men,women & children who got tossed Outta their dens? How many walked upon the gavel A good life is like a raffle There's a lotta rotting apples The concrete I drive on covers how many mistakes? A number so large You'd probably think It's hard to get to a safe point But it's possible And here we are continuing this artificial carnival I focused on the roaches when the switch flicked Scattering for an exit like witches lit the wick And started brewing poison like a Mengele chemist No sedatives Just d**h in a couple of sentences Seconds itch Minutes rip through skin Hours pry bones apart Days begin to trimb limbs This is Life in a Nutshell Violently colliding with the case Because the squirrel didn't know what it was shaking He's just tryna crack the barricade Shook the world like a snow globe Dipped his fingers in fate And wiped it off on our pockets Watch it He's hostile Or probably just insensible Like the most of this odd pile But still It's like he;s got a blade made of adamant Practicing his swing and our universe started fracturing I met a man who was afflicted with a human brain Before parting ways He mumbled something quite strange You are the dream experiencing itself You are the dream experiencing itself Before came the dwellers there first was a home Earth imagined creatures Who developed worlds of their own I am my hands I am my thoughts I am my fantasies, fears, and my plots I am my actions with none of them subtracted Until I succumb I am what I've done
