Peace of Shit

[Verse 1]
Sweet potatoes, beans & rice, bananas, apples, peanut butter
I've seen things that would probably make average people shudder
Steeped in gutter, they that this life's a sad joke - but why?
Just because that last public bathroom smelled like crack smoke?
Fucked up the toilet without buying nothing, that's my steez
Viva la Vanarchy, I'm living free so pass the keys
Laugh if you please but I think that you know beneath the dirt
Lies a rather natural existence, that's why your feelings hurt
Every time you flip through this tattered book that I wrote in blood
Skipping past what you mistook as fact, I don't owe a fucking nothing to nobody
In total control, I drove to lovely
Northern California by the ocean where it's always sunny
Hope the money's able to get you what you envisioning
As for me, I just read the fable of the Brazilian fisherman
And started tripping, been at it since 17 - you need to quit
And just admit, you wish you had the peace of shit

[Hook]
I'm glad to be a piece of shit
You're just mad you ain't a piece of shit
They say I need to quit
But I just can't stop, I got that Peace of Shit

[Interlude]
And they're like "yeah, I fucking grew up in Aspen and I don't know no kinda fuckin, hard times"

[Verse 2]
You ever sleep with your shoes on?
Just because it's super cold wishing that you could move beyond
Stupid problems, but you're about to lose it because the fuse is gone?
It blew so many moons ago, but it's cool because you've been strong
Since the first time that they cut you as a kiddo
When you were too small to process pain, yet too big to live slow
It's not okay how much weight they shovelled atop of you
Then audaciously suggested their options as what you oughta do
Like nah I'm through, thanks though, that'll be plenty
Interested in more than pure ego, we keep it gritty
Because greedy selfish coward scalps are worth more than dollar bills
When I rip it for colossal crowds, I think that's how a scholar feels
When they get their PHD, the moments better than they dreamed - it's lit
This evening when their face hits the pillow they're gonna sleep like bricks
Don't even think about the swish because no things a miss
When people just exist as they wish with, the peace of shit

[Hook]
I'm glad to be a piece of shit
You're just mad you ain't a piece of shit
They say I need to quit
But I just can't stop, I got that Peace of Shit

[Interlude]
I'm so proud to be a piece of shit
Damn, damn, damn

[Verse 3]
I eat trash like a possum that's disinhibited
Is that snack rotten? Yes, but just a little bit
I wish I could rip the fiddle I would benefit
Instead, I just scribble riddles then live as if I don't give a shit
It's increasingly problematic
Positive conscious thoughts constantly fall to habit
Shit, potential candidate for lunacy
I don't fly, I fall with style, so clueless, I do it beautifully

[Outro]
And that's the peace of shit
And that's the peace of shit
