Jolly Roger

Surviving all these storms

Just to get plundered on the shore

Thought these pirates were my bros

Guess crossbones was a warning

Sharks took my heart first day in this ocean

Now family’s all I got please excuse these emotions

Been inside my head trying to make a magic potion

That’ll fix me up; smile on my face for the motions

I can feel the tic in all the tocs creeping in my bones

Every second off the clock another rock I gotta roll

All my past mistakes now take their toll

Hope’s a twinkle in my eye, I’ll never say die

Someone throw me an anchor; I’ll use it to fly

Need a hand I can trust without a twin with a knife

Only keep ride or dies by my side cause

It’s do or die every time I open up eyes

Head hurting trying to see through disguises

The one in the mirror forgets the ones by my side

Never seen clearer the devil

On my shoulder anchored by pride

Trying to see another level

Maybe find where my angels hide

I survived all these storms

Won’t be plundered by your kind

I’ll raise the black flag and fight for my life

Ever forward ever more till my bones wash upon the shore

I’ve been high before but only my parrots get to soar

Almost touched the sky but then gravity reversed

You can tell fate ‘Fuck it’ I know that I’m cursed

Surviving all these storms

Just to get plundered on the shore

Thought these pirates were my bros

Guess crossbones was a warning

You can’t cross the streams or say die in the morning

Won’t get anywhere with the pedal to the flooring

Tore up bridges ignoring all warnings

The hard way is my way, the highway I’ve been touring

I bend with the river and rage when it burns

Surviving all these storms

Just to get plundered on the shore

Thought these pirates were my bros

Guess crossbones was a warning
