about
a song for our monk, who learns by trying
lyrics
chin up, back straight
put on my father’s smile
big plans, big world
he’ll listen if i can pretend
round two, no dice
okay, i’ll step my game up
big boss? big deal
maybe he’ll listen to me then
'cause what father doesn’t know won’t hurt him
and if you’ve got bridges to burn, you better burn ‘em
‘cause if actions speak louder than words
bottom line —
they sent me away
one, two, swing right
out on my father’s smile
big hit, cut left
won’t see it coming if i grin
i’m like lightning, real fast
(and i cause a lot of static)
big shock, big mouth
why can’t they tell it like it is?
'cause they say i don’t care about the discipline
but only one of them can see that i’ve been listenin’
and if actions speak louder than words
bottom line —
so does a fist
new friends, new job
i get a bit suspicious
what do you want?
i better keep my guard up
be tough, be loud
that’s how you keep ‘em guessing
you don’t belong
(no, that’s my father speaking)
they think i’m strong
make me responsible for
playing both sides
i'm sniffing out corruption
i know firsthand
what makes a hypocrite
raised by that man
right in the thick of it
breathe in, breathe out
i feel it in my body
learning just how
to use my words before my hands
[breath]
patience goes far
especially when it comes to
waiting so long
for friends that kind of understand
that i may stun ‘em and i may bruise ‘em
but I’d rather lose myself than ever lose ‘em
and if actions speak louder than words
bottom line —
we’re gonna be alright
This is the most beautiful, moving, exhilarating and obsessive album I’ve heard for years. It made me laugh, cry and want to run to the forest all at once! natalieofnature
This is just HILARIOUS
Everyone on it gave such an AMAZING performance
and Kevin's final appearance? Took me completly by surprise *cheff kiss* MarlaHectic
