Mayday! - Quicksand lyrics

[Bernz] Cla**ic Science Nice Sabotage It's a-- sabotage Who dodging destiny and fall to complacency My father's questioning my drive Worried if I'll survive I laugh it off but inside my feelings won't subside I worry that: I'm chasing a dream just like a fiend And I'm noticing my decision's affecting my family Obsolete So still there's something that I seem to seek And that something is getting me through the hours that make the week And so I scramble Gamble with presence of mind Mangle with time Trying to fit inside the grand design I'm just a number Wonder if I'll ever find something that's mine Looking for signs within the many stars I'm under [hook:] Me and my boys will make noise To drown out the sound of city streets Indeed when locked down and in downtown Tourists oblivious to the signs And they pad statistics once the bodies behind She never slumbers -- ay yo I'm talking this metropolis Police state that controls the ma** populace All of these rules were devised to keep locking us down I give a pound to my fam and keep rocking this sound So now I'm caught up in the imagery False packaging lacking in certain symmetry Before the war; before the troops and the infantry I run the fields absorbing their solar energy Looking for gods to make a mirage for us 'cause the facade will have them running back into the forests So whoever's hard, drop your cards and show your hand Your poker face cannot erase the grand plan See I went from isolation to a different destination And lost some friends along the way; lack of communication But now I'm pa**ed getting ga**ed on petty aggrivations For all my kin I've got nothing but adoration [hook]
