When that rent due
When that rent due

Snake bite the tail when the rent due
Don't understand my place in this; I don't pretend to
But play my mission and keep my symbolism simplistic
so I'm not consumed by what I'm missing
I'm not losing sleep, now I don't sleep
Beyond the veil, I'm up off my feet
Plugged in's a poor metaphor for a fearful rant
I'm test subject bleeding from the implant
Your children did not reject, they broke mortality
If you disconnect them, you raise amputees
I need my art, I need you for my poetry
If we're playing it reductive, can you see me?

I see myself in that reflection and I want to take a bite
And I want to take a bite
I see myself in that reflection and I want to take a bite
And I want to take a bite

Well I make art wrong; I don't speak plain
Post irony and narcissism in my veins
Reduce on the simmer cooked on the spark
My blood thickens, clogging the heart
Rigor mortis sets in, scabs see opportunity
Lick lips, buy the dip of rising poverty
See how they go when we disconnect the host
Take their first breath on their own, only to choke
We'll leave in the dust the reductive and apathetic
But first, bust rhetoric that greed's in our genetics
I'm sick of this shit, man we made it all up
Fuck waiting to speak, man, interrupt
Alright now, I'm on, I'm on
And when the lights go out, I'm gone, I'm gone
But they never go out, reflected in my eyes
And if they do, I know it's the end of this life
I'm about to never forget
Be everywhere, see everything, take in the view
There's no way back as we pay our debts
Snake bite the tail when the rent due
