IDLE HANDS Lyrics by Closegood

GRAVEN

2019

I scribble non sensible sentences sending me somewhere I sense is a census for sentencing yeah threat
Foreshadow a shadow approaching encroaching on us, honest honestly I have no emotions left

So you could get checked nigga
Go ahead and test the apathy
Half of me really wish a nigga would
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing but bruises
Anyway

Get checked nigga
Go ahead and test the apathy
Half of me really wish a nigga would
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing but bruises
Anyway

Me and grim friendly as jenny and forest
Black as licorice
No tact when we know they ignore us
I am practically a force to be wrecking ball
And chain on my neck and all the pain can be reconciled in
Time made me sick and tired
So pour the liquor on my inner fire
And you could learn quite quick
Just why I don't fuck with typical shit
It’s cause I burn at both sides of the wick
Bitch
I burn at both sides of the wick

And I got witches in my family tree
Ain't no use for shooters
Empty bottles in the canopy
You could get the tour
Be sure when you speak to me
Say it with your chest
Nigga we ain't got no time for the extras
You flex like you really bout it
So put your money where your mouth is
We could get loud in a heartbeat
We could get rowdy as a kid in a car seat
If you niggas acting fishy like the shit that the shark eats
Hope your men know I am partly a knife
I am hardly your wifey
All that patriarchal shit is behind me
I’m the archetypal angry black fem with some suicidal tendencies
You should keep a bended knee
Cause mama knew the idle hands tempted me
Cause mama knew the idle hands tempted me
