Virgo

I pledge allegiance to myself
 Food, shelter, and health
 Let me find a beach full of seashells to sell
 Put your oxygen mask on first before you offer me help
 I've got receipts made of scar tissue
 Got the vision of somebody going fishing in the dark
 When I start up the motor, it still turns over
 But nowadays, a little bit slower
 Never been afraid of getting older
 I'm much more nervous about these public servants
 Kill the lights and shut the curtains
 You ain't a real lion if you love the circus
 Looking at myself like "what's the purpose?"
 That's when I started to hallucinate
 Trying to touch the surface and recuperate
 You should've seen the look on my face when I was losing my faith
 Y'all got me feeling hesitation, embarrassment
 I might be the last generation of grandparents
 I know that I've been fortunate for all the opportunities
 Disproportionately disappointed in the human beings
 I get it, we're specks of dust
 At the bus stop busking for extra crust
 Like fuck it, you can sacrifice me to the weather
 If you promise that you'll let my songs live forever
 ♪
 You're looking for a bag of tricks
 But my love is like a stack of bricks
 Cobblestones and untreated lumber
 I'm a father of fists, strength, and numbers
 And when they come for my box of dreams
 I'm a finally depart from this toxic scene
 No posturing, just lots of self-esteem
 Got you feeling like the popular queen
 This ain't magic, this is fabric
 And it's the type that never requires patches
 And it's the fire that illustrates with ashes
 It's our life, it's nothing we can't manage
 Lower the arrow and take a breath
 I won't waste ammo aiming at the angel of death
 I might have already left, but they hear me still
 With my pale knuckle grip on this steering wheel
