The Scenario Song — текст песни (Buck 65)

I write my rhymes in calligraphy
I don`t curse so don`t freak with me
I shoot hoops by myself, but I don`t watch basketball on television
I sell religion relatively cheap from my bedroom window
I swallowed myself when you said you`d been low
I threw a big party for myself on your birthday
I wish I never got into the position in the first place
In the worst way I gotta crush on my own reflection
For my own protection I`m buildin up my bone collection
I also shed my skin on a year basis
It seems like my weapon of choice is clearly tasteless
Why do I insist on tyin` my wrists?
I wanna take a slow breath and then fake my own death
But I didn`t start the religion I`m only a priest in a
B-Boy stance like Tony Bautista
I`m free spirited, building three pyramids
With crosses on top and an antenna period
Its really weird, nearly every year through much avaudum
I sink down deeper and deeper until I touch the bottom
I see with my hands and walk through a dark entrance
Climb all the trees and sit on the park benches
This is what I always wanted

A lonely old man picks up a stone to admire its shape
Later that night he falls down the stairs of the fire escape
Nobody knew his name

A 16 year old basketball star named Matthew
Swallows some pills and spills his guts in the bathroom
Just because his girlfriend dumped him or somethin

An 8 year old girl is haunted by frightening faces
She cries herself to sleep on a nightly basis
Her dad`s an alcoholic

A man desperate to satisfy his wife`s cravings
Goes to the bank and takes out his life savings
His next stop is the casino

A woman with a ring on her finger, eating dinner
Just found out her fiancee is cheating on her
He`s outta town right now

One of the greatest teachers there ever was
Sits at home and waits for the phone to ring, but it never does
He`s slowly going blind

A tall, soft-spoken man named Vincent
Has been in for jail 20 years even though he`s innocent
He whistles The Girl from Ipanema

A man of the cloth is on vacation
Last week he broke down in front of his congregation
He`s losing his faith in God
