Everett
by John Reuben

Album: Sex, Drugs and Self Control

oh man i don't want to brag
but my red pen writes real good raps
about to tear it up like arts and
crafts
speak for yourself if no one else will
brilliance won't announce his brilliance
false humility didn't
know he was pretentious
choose your words wisely can i kick it
break bread and fellowship with cultural
critics
i wrote a song for the summer saved it for the winter
crayon glitter color in the big picture
so
simple man not a simpleton
we get by bare minimum
all i want is a little bit of land
house and a fam and
a number-one jam
to take over your stereo
imaginations captivated
party people motivated
don't make
it so complicated
pens and needles 48 bars to fill
sharpened pencils scribbling yes ya'll
writers block
bang my head against the wall
nothing good to say say nothing at all
i wrote a song for the
summer
saved it for the winter
crayon glitter color in the big picture
my friend everett he told me
don't
trust a man that cannot be
at the bottom of a joke
dig deep hide behind the mystique
angst finds
knowledge knowledge finds a scene
irrelevant religion pleads legitimacy
we chose not to take
ourselves too seriously
cluttered virtue fashion for simple truth
ideas first or the people they serve
keep
quiet while you learn
raise your voice if you're sure
with enough authority to put it in a verse
