Van Gelder Lyrics by Soul Khan

Psalm EP

2012

[Hook] Akie Bermiss, Arthur Lewis and Nicholas Ryan Grant
I stayed awake 'til my mission became
A mosaic of blood on my wall
Then i reawakened amazed that it faded
Faded to nothing at all
It said
We're gonna run through the streets with torches
Of burning tabloid magazines
Then maybe one day we'll rebuild the real
From shreds of exploited fantasies
[Verse 1] Soul Khan
Free bird, never meddle with the poultry
Shine too bright, better get a pair of Oakley's
Got heart like a sentimental oak tree
Son sold horse til they sent him to the Pokey
Some count sheep just to get a little mo' sleep
I only do it for the benefit of bo peep
My killa tape's worth more than your real estate
I kill a snake with the venom in its own teeth
Smooth like the new lou rawls
But they wanna see ratchets and them Youtube brawls
If you feel what I feel like a voodoo doll
Then tiny dancer, let me take your tutu off
One touch from the wushu claw
Would probably turn these dumb fucks into moo shu sauce
It's a wonderful life until you're under the ice
I'm just here to find the medicine for zuzu's cough
[Hook] Akie Bermiss, Arthur Lewis and Nicholas Ryan Grant
I stayed awake 'til my mission became
A mosaic of blood on my wall
Then i reawakened amazed that it faded
Faded to nothing at all
It said
We're gonna run through the streets with torches
Of burning tabloid magazines
Then maybe one day we'll rebuild the real
From shreds of exploited fantasies
[Verse 2] Soul Khan
Oh no no don't blame me
I'm just a mild mannered bystander hummin like do remi
You sellin showcase dreams
I'm helpin old ladies
So if Jimmy needs a kidney i'mma donate three
But i only got two of them
So that means you and them
Probably gon' be losing them
Switch up my pseudonym
Son of jerusalem's diaspora
Tap thoughts back to louisville with that bat of aluminum
Tiptoe on the top of a thin rope
Between what is en vogue and shit for my kinfolk
Never had trouble getting honeys to disrobe
The flag on my pistol says y'all getting rickrolled
Can y'all put the coke down?
The spirit's in the stones, i'm the talk of the ghost town
We are hope seekers
Walking through a river of blood with no sneakers
And we're lost in the foreground
You're looking right at us
Acting like a maybach passing by an old dodge stratus
Hey, yo, we're live from the nation of the baddest
The angelina and the braddest
And we smile through the sadness
[Hook] Akie Bermiss, Arthur Lewis and Nicholas Ryan Grant
I stayed awake 'til my mission became
A mosaic of blood on my wall
Then i reawakened amazed that it faded
Faded to nothing at all
It said
We're gonna run through the streets with torches
Of burning tabloid magazines
Then maybe one day we'll rebuild the real
From shreds of exploited fantasies
[Outro] Akie Bermiss, Arthur Lewis and Nicholas Ryan Grant
