5 to 8 Hours a Day (WWwaG) - L'Rain

People in the garden dressing up for revolution

Can't keep down weak constitution

Am I wasted

Hated

Eating all the walruses keeping all the tusks

Us

You didn't think this would come out of me

You didn't think this would come out of me

People in the garden dressing up for revolution

Can't keep down weak constitution

Am I wasted

Hated

Eating all the walruses keeping all the tusks

Us

You didn't think this would come out of me

You didn't think this would come out of me

"Five to eight hours a day" he said

In a dream of his my body is a guitar

Insubordinate fingers insubordinate mind

Tamed by practice

Through repetition transformation

Seedling into tree

Tiny cell upon tiny cell upon tiny cell upon tiny cell upon tiny cell

I tried it exactly once

Like a goody two shoes with one joint

Like a clock twice lazy luck

Maybe it's the precursor to habit

I'm carrying a verse after a guitar stand

Birthed and grown before the lashes nipped my cheek

She flowed like a tear drop

Up to 5' 9" over the course of thirty minutes

But what about the features

Like Jesus like Santa like Cleopatra

I'm testing the ghosts the vultures

I know she looks like me

My song my child

But I'm not done with them yet the birds

I know I live in their heads

Their invisible conjuring

We all see through it like air

The second I met them I started drinking

But the habit hasn't yet kicked me

Did you notice I rewrote the lyric

I want to try to fill myself with the things I've lost

The things I wanted the things I love

You love like stolen land

At my worst I do too

But I'm on my way to getting free

This is the only moment in the history of the universe

That we will be here together

Celebrate by being here
