The Outskirts Lyrics - Situation - Buck 65

Young and attractive 

Quote unquote old soul 

Down in a cold hole 

Playing my controlled roll 

The world is mine good and bad 

I never sleep, Odd charms 

Firetrucks and squad cars, struggling in God's arms 

Tempted and restless, blood in my arteries 

Floods in the armouries 

Drugs are a part of me 

Circus in fun time, surface in sunshine 

Brush your teeth, don't believe 

So much darkness underneath 

Parties and funerals, nurseries and graveyards 

Lotteries, robberies an old couple plays cards 

Company, visitors, frequency, rise on, 

Weekends, a sequence of secrets and lies 

Oddities, prodigies, fireworks, parades for me 

Same story, all my decisions are made for me 

Reading from loose leaf, mislead and seduce me 

I'm so full of love and bleeding profusely 

(refrain) 

Concrete and steel I remember these drums 

A chill in the air, in september she comes 

Pretty and sad, trying not to cry, trying not to cry so, pretty and so sad 

X2 

These are my telephone poles, my dark trenches, my broken windows, my park benches 

Raccoons and back rooms, giants and small children's, glitter in traffic 

The outlines of tall building still in self defence I kill. 

Yes I will, If they make me do things against my will 

Some make fun of what I wear, and cut my hair 

Goblins and problems I've got my share 

I bitch and complain, and I admit that it's strange 

Parts of my self that I wish I could change 

Insecurities, complexes, x's and marking spots 

Complicated beauty of abandoned buildings and parking lots 

Market thoughts and impulses, rebellion and upheaval 

Tribal indescribable pleasure in such evil 

Review the proof, crime is going through the roof, 

Accuse the youth. 

You'd puke if you knew the truth 

Refrain x2 

(voice) 

Love me once again 

(voice) indistinguishable
