Badlands Lyrics

Down and out like I'm drowning

Down bad, siren sounding

Shock to the system like a hospital visit

Listen to the wisdom when my spirit spit explicit

Slave to the physics in rotation like a widget

Caught up in the matrix like a binary digit

Fishing for a fortune open sea

Bury me see me sprout like a seed

Bearing the karma

Armand hammer with the drama

Hotter than a sauna in the summer in Botswana

Feel the heat, let me

Step into the frame, vain

Like I'm feeling like a vixen, centerfold

Focus flash and expose got me grateful for the grain

See the pain in the pose rock erodes in the Rayne

When the highs turn to lows due to stress and the strain

Fingertips feel the pressure while I'm praying

Down and out like I'm drowning

Down bad, heartbeat pounding, vision clouding

Down and out like I'm drowning

Down bad, siren sounding

Watch on my wrist still I got

No time for the dumb shit

I ain't trying to run shit

I'm just trying to function with my primo

Tear the roof off like arena

Laugh our ass off like hyena

Keep it low pro eating lomo we in Lima

Wearing a smile a bit contagious I have found

Follow like the words spoken by poets underground

Feel the rhythm, let me

Step up to the mic, check

Like I'm feeling like I'm vincible, humility

Wealth over riches I'm invested in my health

Been around the block barely breathing by myself

Time takes a toll like a road you can't avoid

We in the OC or in LA?

Down and out like I'm drowning

Down bad, heartbeat pounding, vision clouding

Down and out like I'm drowning

Down bad, siren sounding

Out in the wild like I'm Hersh in the bus

Or I'm Herf the truck yeah I'm giving zero fucks

Mouth full of bold words wishing they was gold

Kicking like a tin can kick them down the road

For family I let it bleed

Here with me be his story

Sharing the Dharma like it's death or dishonor

I promise I belong here with a gunner I'm a farmer in the dark

Let me step into the light, Rayne

Like I'm feeling like a liquid, liquidity

Lush with the liquor wishing down like a dick her

Every time I touch down I stay in touch like a fixer

Message I deliver like the tape of a ticker

Meet me downtown any city I'm a slicker
