The Des Moines Tapes Lyrics - Singles - The Khayembii Communique

starting becomes an adherent 

obstacle 

when all objections are raised 

beforehand, 

in the head 

knowing what one can and will 

say against whatever is being 

expressed 

because it circles that way, in every 

single 

direction. 

friends are the police I'm the police 

we define everything here 

and push out what is unacceptable 

sometimes only based on (its all the same-- its inside) 

fear and you get so used t pushing (we don't see eye to eye- we don't) 

things away (realize) 

that a good idea becomes (we were wrong) 

indistinguishable from a bad one (look inside, you can see it) 

so we remain unchanged, 

never able to grow 

this fear driving our controlled sides 

we're pushing everything away 

that could potentially 

save us, we don't know what we're 

killing 

we just keep wheeling down the 

same old rut 

policing each other, socializing, 

stuck here like the children, 

like the fucking kids we are..
