X2 The world is so insane I gotta maintain Nothing is easy here Stand tall through the rain My heart'll never change I gotta persevere Past interference, perseverance Now let me say this clearly cause I need no clearance Do you have insurance? For you and your children I say that I don't just to make an appearance I'm standing tall, on the ball leanin' back Black power look I'm tryna bring the meaning back Seems like a wish away Chillin' like a villain on the corner With a burner in the pickle plane Freeze tag, nah nigga ease back Sackin' up the peace snack of the [?] in the beezack Or maybe just the freezer We gettin' money on the spot where we cheese her And we never gon' slip up Until we get the whole zip up, tip up, crib up, die Until the sun rise up to the stars County jails, bars, beats and brakes And you know when the night fall... X2 Faith, uh Violent shindig bloody dance floor Violet Prince wig, what he stand for? Kimi Räikkönen hold his position sit with the quickness Like a twisted double sure gets missed What is Christmas in the Cathouse? Copious Santa-hatted hoes blown' they backs out Fitting, meanwhile at the aftermath of the dance floor Hitting, sitting like Kimi when he's pitting With blood gently dripping it's something from Rudyard Kipling Or Trevanian, Characteristics caricatured into a dickless Or some mad fit imagining the status of the bones that his fist hit He'll die a little later Or maybe later more wearing something from Aitor Throup Nigger rich and waiter poor Firefighter igniting the paper while I [?] The play is bowed and gone X4

Our father had a lot of painful memories A bunch of shit he never shared But when he died I went out looking for them For all the things he never said Thought he was born in 1948 But was born a whole decade before Thought he was brought up in New Zealand But he was born and brought up in Samoa We thought that he was only half Samoan That his mother was a German Jew But I went and found his birth certificate And he lied about that too Our father's love was unmistakable and He gave us everything he had I guess the man pretending he was half white To give his kids a better chance My sister, she lives out in New York City Been there since I was 17 I think she hates it but like most New Yorkers She just can't bring herself to leave She used to love to watch our father cooking And imitate the things she'd seen And now she makes the most amazing things And she also sings better than me And when he died she had her husband stayed To keep my mother company And even though it fucked them up a lot They did a better job than me And I wish that we could see them every weekend And she could cook her famous meals And I wish that I could hang out with her husband More than a couple times a year Our brother Wesley is a quiet man and He is the second of us four And he inherited our father's hands but He looks like me a little more He has a love that's unmistakable and He's seen police brutality He lives in Auckland with his wife and dog And he stands a shade above 6'3" Our father left him with a cousin and He got into trouble frequently Me and my sister only heard of him In 2018 Our brother Matthew is a baker and he Stands a mighty 7 feet He was brought up in a Māori family And speaks Te Reo fluently He didn't know about our father 'till I, I guess he was about 18 And he did some time for something awesome And he's the sweetest guy you'll ever meet He came to meet me at a festival And he told me everything he knew That our father left him at the hospital But if he forgives him, then I should too La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la I know our father had his reasons But that can't never make it right or fair I hate myself for stealing all his love when My brothers thought that he was dead So as I dig through the collateral The secrets hid throughout the years I know I'll hardly ever answer them But it's a way to keep him near La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la

Hey, did the killer in your party, the intruder in our union kill your rage? Where's your sense of adventure? Has the power and the danger been restrained? I'm not asking you for answers.
