TOM – Sake

TOM – Sake Lyrics

Artist: TOM
Song: Sake

Rapping for my trauma’s sake
Just so happens that i’m also great
Habits that i’m forming late
Breathe in to ignore my fate

Keep sinning, man, the Lord can wait
Got caught in flames, the thought of saving me is lost in haze
Dad died but never lost the game
Morphine made a man that never fought again

Left an awful name and his ways i can’t afford to forget
So when i cross the gates i’ll break the f#cking jaw on his head
Cleaning out his closet, it was all cigarette stains on his clothing
Reeked of war and regret

Yet we’re the same for the moment, walking with death, taking what i can get in escaping the fate that we share
Piecing dangerous omens together
Shit, reach out when you’re rapping better though
Six feet down, toes latched to heaven’s door

It’s just a race between me and my mother now
In need of another crown
So i better go
Rapping for the sake of my trauma

So i’ll be damned if i make me a dollar
Dents in my armour, conversations with karma
Venting to her about what fate brought us
Translated some hatred to art

Told my mama to frame it
Give a f#ck about making my mark
If she stays in my heart as long as ink stained pages are plagued with remarks
Of my greatness and mistakes made in the race to erase the sins of father

Then i’ve made it in spite of the chinks in my armour
Wasted are nights spent blinkless and with arms up, fists curled, palms tucked
Fighting with peril what i can’t love
God swung last, had his guard up

Took my damn dad like a pawn
Might sell his ashes to a pawnshop
While the Lord watches me collect some petty cash and fumble it all until i have nothing
Then i can afford losses, go tell these rappers they’re all f#cked

Reeking of my wars won
