    SNAKECHARMER


    Satellites and, pair of mirrors and, and a man without a home
    With a horse, and a rider, and a clever, cunning killer
    Silent in error and vocal in spotlights

    Father's expectations, soul soaked in, spit and urine
    And you gotta make it where?
    To a sanctuary that's a fragile American hell
    An empty dream
    A selfish, horrific vision
    Passed on like the deadliest of viruses
    Crushing you and your naive profession
    Have no illusions boy
    Vomit all ideals and serve
    Sleep and wake and serve
    And don't just think just wake and serve

    DOWN RODEO


    Yeah I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun
    These people ain't seen a brown skin man
    Since their grandparents bought one

    So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun
    These people ain't seen a brown skin man
    Since their grandparents bought one

    So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

    Bangin' this bolo tight on this solo flight can't fight alone
    Funk tha track my verbs fly like tha family stone
    Tha pen devils set that stage for tha war at home
    Locked wit out a wage ya standin' in tha drop zone
    The clockers born starin' at an empty plate
    Momma's torn hands cover her sunken face
    We hungry but them belly full
    The structure is set ya neva change it with a ballot pull
    In tha ruins there's a network for tha toxic rock
    School yard ta precinct, suburb ta project block
    Bosses broke south for new flesh and a factory floor
    The remains left chained to the powder war

    Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse
    So make a move and plead the fifth 'cause ya can't plead the first
    Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse
    So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun
    These people ain't seen a brown skin man
    Since their grandparents bought one

    Yes I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun
    These people ain't seen a brown skin man
    Since their grandparents bought one

    So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

    Bare witness to tha sickest shot while suckas get romantic
    They ain't gonna send us campin' like they did my man Fred Hampton
    Still we lampin' still clockin' dirt for our sweat
    A ballots dead so a bullet's what I get
    A thousand years they had tha tools
    We should be takin' 'em
    Fuck tha G-ride I want the machines that are makin' em
    Our target straight wit a room full of armed pawn to
    Off tha kings out tha west side at dawn

    Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse
    Make a move and plead the fifth 'cause ya can't plead the first
    Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse
    So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun
    These people ain't seen a brown skin man
    Since their grandparents bought one

    Yeah I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun
    These people ain't seen a brown skin man
    Since their grandparents bought one

    Yeah I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

    The rungs torn from the ladder can't reach the tumour
    One god, one market, one truth, one consumer

    Just a quiet peaceful dance!
    Just a quiet peaceful dance!
    Just a quiet peaceful dance!
    Just a quiet peaceful dance!
    Just a quiet peaceful dance for the things we'll never have
    Just a quiet peaceful dance for the things we don't have

    WITHOUT A FACE


    Uh! Got no card so I got not soul
    Life is prison, no parole, no control
    Tha jura got my number on a wire tap
    'Cause I jack for similac, fuck a cadillac
    Survive one motive no hope
    'Cause every sidewalk I walk is like a tightrope
    Yes I know my deadline sire, when my life expires
    I'm sendin' paper south under tha barbed wire
    Tha mother of my child will lose her mind at my grave
    It's my life for their life so call it a free trade
    "Por vida" and our name up on tha stall
    I took a death trip when I tried ta cross tha white wall
    Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face
    One motive no hope ah, born without a face
    Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face
    One motive no hope ah, yeah, born without a face
    Without a face

    Yeah, I tried ta look back ta my past long lost
    A blood donor ta tha land owner holocaust
    Pops heart stopped, in came tha air drop
    Flooded tha trench he couldn't shake tha toxic shock
    Maize was all we needed ta sustain
    Now her golden skin burns, insecticide rain
    Ya down wit DDT yeah you know me
    Raped for tha grapes, profit for tha bourgeois
    War tape boomin' path is Luminoso
    I'm headed north like my name was kid Cisco
    To survive one motive no hope, ah
    It's hard ta breathe wit Wilson's head around my throat
    Strangled and mangled another SS curtain call
    When I tried ta cross tha white wall
    When I tried ta cross tha white walls
    Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face
    One motive no hope ah, born without a face
    Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face
    One motive no hope ah, born without a face
