Kitchen Table

Vowed to never live on my knees

Never beg, I'm never fed, off of 'gimme' or 'please'

I never bled off of crawlin'

So if I should bleed it's from my hands dry wallin'

Holdin' this shit is me

Every wall that I installed, every entrance you see

I drew it all and through it all, up to just what it be

Knew it all, true to all, movin' on, true to form

Forgiveness is at the end and I got endings to weave

Attaching 'em where they meet at

Back to where my lean at

Dreams got wings but they clippin' 'em where they breathe at

So fuck tryin' to sing I'm tryin' to swing where the seat's at

And know that anything that I bring, I'm tryin' to read that

I try to fight a feelin' but the feeling subsides

And the high that you've been given when you get to provide

Is to find the ambition that you wish to revive

Live and die, but while you livin', keep the kitchen in mind

And remember, the place mats is laid where they should be at

And everybody made they way to where they seats at

Feel like all eyes on me from how they need that

Can't be mad at 'em cause here is where they eat at

So me, I'm tryin' to decorate the kitchen table

And put enough around for everyone of them mouths

I mean, I'm just tryin' to decorate the kitchen table

And put enough around for everyone sittin' down

I mean...

The process of providin' and tryin' to find it

And words passin' the margin and contemplating consignment

And circle backwards and forwards and fallin' for the reminder

Then stressin' over these plates and the utensils that's beside 'em

You countin' three times and hopin' you counted wrong

Till all of the count is gone

And all that you counted on ain't on the table

And you was suppose to make sure that was decent

And now all this decorating is needed

Never waited to see it cause ain't nobody waitin' to be seated

And they ain't tryin' to change up how they eatin'

Man of the house entails bringin' home anything but a reason

Cause a reason can't clear away the grievance

So fuck all that

Before departin' I'll turn into G. Garvin

As long as the plate is straight I can deal with the deeper margins

Long as I'm 808 I can deal with being a target

Long as we ate today you can call it what you call it

But remember, the place mats is laid where they should be at

And everybody made they way to where they seats at

Feel like all eyes on me from how they need that

Can't be mad at 'em cause here is where they eat at

So me, I'm tryin' to decorate the kitchen table

And put enough around for everyone of them mouths

I mean, I'm just tryin' to decorate the kitchen table

And put enough around for everyone sittin' down

And remember, the place mats is laid where they should be at

And everybody made they way to where they seats at

Feel like all eyes on me from how they need that

Can't be mad at 'em cause here is where they eat at

So me, I'm tryin' to decorate the kitchen table

And put enough around for everyone of them mouths

I mean, I'm just tryin' to decorate the kitchen table

And put enough around for everyone sittin' down

I mean...
