Sage Francis Lyrics of the Climb Trees track

1088





Sun set and sun rise I'm my own personal light show

Flipping switches...moving from basin bottoms to plateaus

The Earth...manipulates itself beneath me

I stand still...stagnate. Can't kill...this lagged state



Life...manipulates itself around me, but I'm dead still

Upright...but dead still

Word is still born...I will not stoop to the level of the stoop that y'all chill on

If the building's boarded up and the children of the corn

-er Liquor Store don't want to kick it no more...

because holes have filled the wall, sneakers are scuffed
