Old Friend

Mmh-mh, uh Strong spirit where the body couldn't get asylum The cost of living high, don't cross the picket line and get the virus Wild cat has got 'em in a bind, stay inside Know I came from out the thicket smilin' Mad hatters cappin' every line, it doesn't matter to the ten of five They start hackin' when they can't shrink us I found the middle in a bit of balance Fever in the cabin I knew where we was headed I ain't countin' no blessings, I sure as shit could measure Blinkin' for some feasible methods to free yourself Split it with my hand like Cigarills Slick oil in a fish gill I fill a void with the pen, feel the fear, shrill Couple stains that I couldn't shield My brother, Brain, that we couldn't shield Couple came, couple wins still And what remain of the wolves' meal I held the page, gave the book ears Whispered, "Thanks" hella pain, heavy brain in the Catskills Played the shade, quite a deal, glad we stayed friends --- Old Friend - Earl Sweatshirt
