The Scenario Song lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics The Scenario Song lyrics 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 song lyrics
