Lyrics

If you listen close, you can hear the heart speak
Preacher, preacher, please stop preaching at us
Certain teachers reach us, but not by status
It's a creature feature when you push that madness
Monster Masher mobbing, skull cross bone cracking
Metronome keep my faith, while I'm pushing through sadness
L.A. traffic in my way, but yet the seatbelt's unfastened
'Cause God's got my back, I'm not looking for action and
Comfort over style, I'm not checking for fashion trends
Homebody homie, gratitude for my loneliness
Drama hater, rather talk to myself than hear phony shit
Only if I need to be, I'm out late, you're seeing me
A primate and a deity, alive, awake, and easy, free
Easy does it, so conflicted, trapped inside this brain at times
Unrefined, yet I will not hit your weed or snort your lines
Used to be, not today, change, no longer strange
What I used to see, not the same, the game is no longer made
Peel back all charades, feet walk all terrain
No time to be afraid, fear crushing serenades
Add it to your marinade, parade the Earth, celebrate
Tear down barricades, pass on and exit stage left
I help another man a day to live through
End of days is just a phase, but demons out to get you
That's the issue, all the luck in the world is sent your way
Throughout these songs, that's the mission, simplified metronome
Teacher, teacher, please stop yelling at me
'Cause I do not respond well to what you're selling sadly
Got an issue with authority, just ask my daddy
If you took off that mask you might just reach or grab me
By the ear, but, reality is just too hard for me
To pay attention for another year, I'm outta here
The psyche of the kids who listen to me spit
Not A.D.D., they just wanna be free off the grid
Can't turn my back and act like I don't feel that shit
'Cause that was me at fourteen, wandering the asphalt
Gypsy blacktop, non-stop daydreaming and pondering
Art became the path that I was meant to walk
The math is in the message of the heart, you got to play the part
Unjoin the rat race, tie up your fat laces
Heartbeat will lead you home, listen to the metronome
If you listen close, you can hear the heart speak
Through the metronome, eternal life runs deep
Eternal life runs deep
The metronome, you can hear the heart speak
If you listen close
