Sapient - Barrels For Feathers lyrics

Barrels For Feathers [Verse 1] A strong sense of discernment, hence the name I'm gonna work this, excavate, I'm done lurking Never uncertain, never done earning my name 'Til the sun is done burning its flames It gets f**ed up, but life isn't fair It's freewill, but will gods interfere? Hands up in the air, the miracle isn't there I feel pain and it ain't nothing to grin and bear I've been preparing the most thorough of plans With the weight of the world on my back I can support all the weight And still go to war with no paint worn on my face Aye, I live correct and with honor They meddle like children, disrespecting their fathers Proud of what they earn, but no pride in what they make It's time to wipe smiles off they faces [Hook] In these times of war, I'ma rise by force So you and I gonna perish together I have barrels for feathers In these times of war, I'ma rise by force So you and I gonna perish together I have barrels for feathers [Verse 2] Modern times got me feeling so hateful (Still) feeling like I'm building with Legos (Still) k**ing for pesos (Still) la**o in the dirt, ain't no Pecos Bill Heed warning, I'ma rise by force I've already been planning for this lifetime war Keeping it so damn raw in the trenches With every advance there's been thought out defenses The edge is in numbers, me and you have it Therefore the music gets truth added The true addicts strapping on boots We don't reply to threats we launch nukes I won't let the past be my guide They wanna be my God, they wanna read my mind Gatekeepers jingling keys Trying to make us keep in line, but now we D.I.Y [Hook] In these times of war, I'ma rise by force So you and I gonna perish together I have barrels for feathers In these times of war, I'ma rise by force So you and I gonna perish together I have barrels for feathers [Verse 3] In these times of war, I'ma rise and soar To new heights never climbed before You've got nothing to lose, then your life's a bore I've got plenty to lose, so I'm bending the rules, yeah In these times of war, while you ride your horse I'ma fly, bird's eye the course So you wondering what I'm smiling for Free hands while I carry my weapon, gun barrels for feathers In these times of war, support's a sight for sore eyes But I still light the torch Let it spread 'til the world is mine and yours 'Til then, I stay calm, never mind the storm [Hook] In these times of war, I'ma rise by force So you and I gonna perish together I have barrels for feathers In these times of war, I'ma rise by force So you and I gonna perish together I have barrels for feathers
