letra de alpha dog - ebony tusks

concrete junglist
blacktop parliament for a browbeat public
arms keep juggling but the heart needs covenant
what is bought we covet and blow it all, seek cover then
bombs leave rubble, it’s no alarms, streets rumbling
coat of arms eat knuckles, in youth we all bleed summering
the appalled plead “justice!” and catalog each scuffle
cornerboy left anonymous in a tall tee, hustlin’
they call it a problem but hardly know what you up against
to bargain your conscience, a form of corporal punishment
when bargaining product, the vultures open discussion
in enemy territory to brag and boast of circumference
cupboard void of sustenancе, stomach swollen and udderless
mothеr hopelessly devoted “holy ghost, come and comfort us!”
older brother on and poppin’, caught a foe with an uppercut
who been asking for it long enough to warrant a pummeling
kentucky, circa ’91, embroiled in that suffering
alpha dog, you’ll see your martyrdom before you as lovers dream
all to cop some j—–s, went to war with some armed police
departure in the summer, you were gone by the autumn leaves
the father of your father spoke in n0ble economy
the choir sang you conscious and you rose like you sprouted wings
better to have been haunted than destroyed by that hour’s grief
at least ti held the promise we could join you beyond the breach
and every holiday we fought to swallow the memory
gather up the neighbors and we all would go caroling
and sing your favorite songs like you were part of the merriment
both living and the gone, it seems we all need this medicine
both living and the gone, it seems we all need this medicine
both living and the gone, it seems we all need this medicine
