Lyrics
Sum a rough crux done something sux ...(other voices:"summer rough")
I know I don't believe in a problem ...("I have known")
deceiving me,,
defeat myself... Help me get my chin up
You've seen me when I was down
Drop/Drivel,,
Too Much on my mind,,
The devil dust is driving tonight
and I wish you were someone making it right
there wasn't no one there to break up the fight again
Help me get my mind off of the friggin girls
I wasn't no one's bitch before
and then I was yours...
[Sample]
That feeling went on for years... and painful loneliness became my constant companion
I'm a fraction of the chemical waste
I'll slow it down to an impossible pace
and if you're wondering what my name was
Just ask around 'cause they won't know
A junkie bum dirt scum fill the walls of his mind
on the freeway of celibacy
To the sour beat pocket of consciousness
I'm quite a sight to see these days
because I'm only strong,, and I'm strong enough!
BackStory
Onomatopoeia:
in linguistics, sound-imitative words that develop out of a phonetic similarity to combinations of nonverbal sounds (ku-ku, “cuckoo”; bum-bum, “boom-boom”; a devitsa—khi-khi-khi! da kha-kha-kha! “And the girl goes ‘Hee, hee, hee!’ and ‘Ha, ha, ha!’ “). Onomatopoeia is used in poetry to create an image based on sound... :from The Great Soviet Encyclopedia (1979)
...this is a song I've flirted with re-recording (along with 'White Paste Taste') but haven't thought it was totally necessary yet... ...the vocal layering is mostly because it's written on-the-spot/first takes... 10-4
