Mice Songtext
von Shahmen

The weight has been lifted, I buried the knife

Here comes the elephant carried by mice
Here to marry the mic
One tusk cut, dipped in blood, now dare me to write

Watch a murder of crows turn into a pack of wolves
And prowl the streets for the feast they owe
Fat sacks and a stack of gold
Get blown and turn back to crows
I hear evil, I see evil, but I speak needle
Full of medicine for all of these ill people
Sight beyond sight
Carry the eyes of a dead eagle treading into twilight

Leather bag of bones browns when the sun is shone
Ten fingers that have touched the globe
Ten toes to the dusty road
One skull made of bone ′bout to touch the throne


Eskimo with an ice pick
Chipping icebergs down when I write shit
Priceless, life lifts off a virus
High into the sky, catches fire and falls right into your iris
Wipe the ash from your eyelashes
Follow on the white rabbit
Tonight you might catch it

Been clinging onto madness
But I finally built a kingdom from my passions
So start to divvy up your cash and
I'll pull the next world wonder out the back alley trash can

One vision everlasting
They tried to get him but they couldn′t
Build a prison that would trap him
And in this land, hated shamans are king
Better follow your dreams or fall deep into the hollow of reeds
I'm gone until tomorrow it seems
To suck the sorrow out and spit my peace

Wake up, face up with a heart to get right
In a world that's gone wrong, I′m darker than midnight
But I′m brighter than Zeus strikes when rolling these two dice
Tell me the world ends, well I guess we got tonight
Dance on my own grave, this ground is now sacred
The art, well it takes time, my hands, well it take bread
The engine in my heart starts to running on hatred


Know I'll make it far in this war with the faceless
Raise up the graves, they good day to the fallen
Come by for the now, know I′m out for my calling
Staring at my chip, 'bout to push them all in

Standing on the cliffs, one slip and I′m falling

I wrote this one on Sunday with no sun rays
Under a gray and blue sky thinking one thing
Be a king by the time that the sun came
Now I rhyme while it shines like gold plate
I wrote this one on Sunday with no sun rays
Under a gray and blue sky thinking one thing

Be a king by the time that the sun came

Now I rhyme while it shines like gold plate
I wrote this one on Sunday with no sun rays
Under a gray and blue sky thinking one thing
Be a king by the time that the sun came
Now I rhyme while it shines like gold plate
I wrote this one on Sunday with no sun rays
Under a gray and blue sky thinking one thing
Be a king by the time that the sun came
Now I rhyme while it shines like gold plate
Here comes the elephant carried by mice

Carried by mice, carried by mice
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant carried by mice

Carried by mice, carried by mice
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant carried by mice

Carried by mice, carried by mice
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant
Here comes the elephant carried by mice

Carried by mice, carried by mice
