5 out of 6 - Audiotree Live Version

Lyrics

Double-jointed, triple threat
 I'm not some method actress
 Trying to see my, my descent
 You're gonna have to play the tape backwards
 Save that breath for choir practice
 Got no time for my detractors
 Standing on my staircase
 All you are is a fire hazard
 I've put my time in now
 I'm vetted, uncontested
 See how an honest answer shuts down
 Motherfuckers asking trick questions
 I'm out here, arms wide
 Hiding nothing
 I've done it all in broad daylight
 And I left the cameras running
 I'm the phoenix and the ash
 Red eyes shining in the camera flash
 My secret is I don't keep none, see
 Something go ahead and say something
 I ain't afraid of it
 I don't drown, won't stay down
 Heat finds a way to rise somehow
 Scan the crowd as I'm coming out and I
 Don't see too many rivals now
 I don't need an agenda
 I just tell the truth (yup)
 Let it off the leash and
 Don't touch it
 It knows what to do
 And I'm running a tight ship
 Every deckhand here has a five-year plan
 And a ice pick
 They can write code, they can drive stick
 I got an octave on you and a high kick
 Don't blink, I don't block, I'm a bleeder
 All I do is hit
 I don't win them all but I'd say I take five out of six
 Clock's running, better glove up
 If you insist (okay!)
 Let's see who's really counting coup
 And who's been counterfeit
 I'm the phoenix and the ash
 Red eyes shining in the camera flash
 My secret is I don't keep none, see
 So go ahead and say something
 I ain't afraid of it
 I don't drown, won't stay down
 Heat finds a way to rise somehow
 Scan the crowd as I'm coming out and I
 Don't see too many rivals now
 Cut my own gills with a pocket knife
 Turning my fingers in the sockets, my
 Daily -zzzt- daily dose of, daily dose of lightning
 Just buzzed enough to get me climbing up the kite string
 And my back is aching, my belt's too tight
 I brought a chisel tip to this pencil fight
 No luck, just fortified dice
 I'm going morning and night and
 I'm really rising
 The fire on the horizon
 I'm the phoenix and the ash
 Red eyes shining in the camera flash
 My secret is I don't keep none, see
 Something go ahead and say something
 I ain't afraid of it
 I don't drown, won't stay down
 Heat finds a way to rise somehow
 Scan the crowd as I'm coming out and I
 Don't see too many rivals now
 I'm the phoenix and the ash
 Red eyes shining in the camera flash
 My secret is I don't keep none, see
 Something go ahead and say something
 I ain't afraid of it
 I don't drown, won't stay down
 Heat finds a way to rise somehow
 Scan the crowd as I'm coming out and I
 Don't see too many rivals now
