9000 Miles
Do I strive for a hustle, when time slinks and snails its way by?Ran my thoughts in Chicago, remember how we slept in parking spaces that night?Searching for Noble Drew, our brain synapses fried,dear heart, pound less, this rib ain't caged to confinehow can I swim 9,000 milesI'm 9,000 miles away from homeLying in a ditch,a hung my eyes off the crescent,I rubbed the bristles on my chin,where do I begin?Mere moments away from doomsday,I still recall your visage,march down stairs through the hinges there into the daylight that jipped me that night you decided to pack to forget mehow can I swim 9,000 milesI'm 9,000 miles away from homeLife's hard when you're singed, by the shades of the past,moments can be cinched, by the fear you'll be last,thaw my heart, thaw my heart, I've been frozen in old grovesalternate verse:There's almost no line between fear and lovesometimes I'm made of fire, sometimes I'm made of mudBut I stand alone on my own here, still barely holding on.
