Trying To Find A Balance Lyrics


    [Slug]
    They love the taste of blood
    Now I don't know what that means, but I know that I mean it
    Maybe they're as evil as they seem
    Or maybe I only look out the window when it's scenic
    "Atmosphere finally made a good record."
    Yeah right, that shit almost sounds convincing
    The last time I felt a sinking contradictive as this
    Was the last time we played a show in Cinnci'
    "Get real." they tell me
    If only they knew how real this life really gets
    They would stop acting like a silly bitch
    They would respect the cock whether or not they believed in it
    Doesn't take much and that's messed up
    Because these people do a lot of simple shit to impress us
    While everyone was trying to out-do the last man
    I was just a ghost trying to catch some Ms. Pac-man
    Hello ma'am, would you be interested
    In some sexual positions and emotional investments
    See, I'm not insane, in fact I'm kind of rational
    When I be askin', "Yo, where did all the passion go?"
    East coast, West coast, down South, Midwest
    Nowadays everybody knows how to get fresh
    Somebody give me a big yes (yes)
    God Bless America, but she stole the B from "Bless" (accept it)
    Now I'm too fucked up to dance
    So I'ma sit with my hand down the front of my pants
    You can't achieve your goals if you don't take that chance
    So go pry open that trunk and get those amps (you know)

    [Chorus x2]
    In the days of Kings and Queens I was a jester
    Treat me like a God, oh they treat me like a leper
    You see me move back and forth between both

    I'm trying to find a balance
    I'm trying to build a balance

    [Slug]
    So now I keep a close eye on my pets
    Because they make most of they moves off of instinct and sense
    It's eat, sleep, fuck in self defense
    So straight you can set your clocks and place bets
    Wait, let's prey on blind, deaf, dumb, dead
    Hustle, maybe a couple will love what you said
    Emcees drag their feet across a big naked land
    With an empty bag of seed and a fake shake of hands
    Yeah I got some last words, FUCK ALL OF YA'LL!
    Stop writin' raps and go play volleyball
    Gotta journey the world in a hurry
    Cause my attorney didn't put enough girls on the jury
    Guilty of droppin' these bombs in the city
    But I'm innocent, love is the motive that's why you're killin 'em
    Guilty of settin' my fire in all fifty
    But I'm innocent, blame it on my equilibrium

    [Chorus x2]
    In the days of Kings and Queens I was a jester
    Treat me like a God, oh they treat me like a leper
    You see me move back and forth between both
    I'm trying to find a balance
    I'm trying to build a balance

    I gotta find my balance
    I gotta find my balance

    [Slug]
    Now all my friends are famous
    It's either one thing or another
    They all don't know what my name is
    Probably know both of my brothers
    The one is a hard workin' savior
    The other's a hard workin' soldier
    I'm just your next door neighbor
    Workin' hard at tryin' to stay sober
    You wait for the car at the corner
    Pretend like you know what the pot is
    Won't quit till I hit California
    And make you my Golden State goddess
