Lyrics:


I'm washin' down these red pills
With blue kool-aid
Tried keeping it to myself
But I knew I’d cave
Never knew I’d change
I’ll jump through rings or whatever
But it’s hard to keep your
Head still and move through phases
Squashing up these red pills
A new blue face rolled up
Tight enough to keep me arms length
I’m bending spoons, new strength
But like my shoes been laced together
How can I keep my legs still
And do this charading

Squash it up
Wash it down
Talk me up to talk me down
Off the ledge
Chalk it up, he’s not around yet
Cough it up, they'll jot it down
It’s common sense
No common grounds, we're on the fence
You knock it down just to build it up again
But then again, on the other hand
Why don’t you and me give this a chance

Washin' down these red pills
with blue kool-aid
Tried keeping it to yourself
I knew you'd cave
Never knew you'd change
You'd jump through rings or whatever
But it’s hard to keep your
Head still and move through phases
Squashing up these red pills
A new blue face rolled up
Tight enough to keep me arms length
I'm bending spoons, new strength
But like my shoes been laced together
How can I keep my legs still
And do this charading

Flushing down these pills
They caught in the drain
All flush without your medicine
You're blue in the face
Cussing out myself when I see you again
To prove I'm flesh with some substance
I need to refrain
You live within oraculum and had it comin'
Made my way up out of there, I had to run
See it from another pair
Change your assumptions
Said I won’t be back again, but here I'm coming
With an underabundance of comfortable budgets
It ain't enough for what they call love
They'll throw you under the bus then
When summer starts, I'm summersaulting
Off of my shirt, lose all of the buttons to
All their adjustments

You have been my newest one
Additions to the crew are few and far between
But now you're in the stew, and it's too seductive
So I'm spitting like the flu
When I’m comfortable enough around you
Would you accompany me, be my Trinity
I don’t want infinity existing
If it isn’t you with me
It's no assumptions
But I'm following the compass
That's in my chest, East to West
But when I'm washin' down these
Don't get caught around me
Got a lot of heads plotting down on me
Or it’s all in my head, schizophren-
Hit the spread, new teller on bread
Dark thoughts, and they keep infesting
Don’t know where to redirect
Do you care if I ingest just a lil taste test
Eyes are always bigger than my tummy
'Till I'm up to my neck, too big for my britches
Contraindications indicate my contradictions
