Saltfish Lyrics

[Verse 1: billy woods]
The sun yeah
Oh he the one that's been gone for a while
You got a lot of nerve just comin back around
You burnt every bridge but it never got you down
You be high in the sky I get boots on the ground
Loading that in silos loaded with all creations force folded
Multiply frozen in a drawing sling
Mouth open not a sound
Not a sound
Here’s hoping when them plates shift, I'm heaven bound
Every tree burn before he turned with a frown
Indeed my G, it's time to be out
River bed dry fish Look like bacalao
Gravity loosen, slip the fingers in near nooses
No rearview mirrors, no sky to speak of, everything looks nearer

[Chorus]
You got a lot of nerve just coming back around
Burnt every bridge but it never got you down
You got a lot of nerve just coming back around
Burnt every bridge but it never got you down

[Verse 2: Denmark Vessey]
Whenever I leave Earth, I tip the axis
Complement the surface, I load the dice
My heart is light years away and cold as ice
I was squatting in 12 houses, 12 bandos with black bolt on pipes
Life as a bar for "nature of the threat" from Soul on Ice, changed my whole life
Yeah ain’t nothing new Under the sole like
Yet police voting for pro Life in the bo's
12 turned around and took the 12 year old life
You know how that go though
Thoughts and prayers?
You can't change Everyone overnight, I suppose
Plus I hate to see things just Domino
I know all the tricks. I see he's sponsored by a wax mustache and monocle
Propaganda chronicle Skys Falling vamonos
I know it happened but it was such a long time ago
Pssh, a 4 inch snatch?? Legacy my great-grandmother's mama know
As I pause, take a step back and look at sunshine divine light
To the common folk in The Bloodline with divine, right?
And the first might you be red lining with the turnpike trying to blend in with a Yes yall and a word life, all absurd like
You got a lot of nerve
You got a lot of nerve
[Chorus]
You got a lot of nerve just coming back around
But every bridge but it never got you down
You got a lot of nerve just coming back around
Bar every bridge but it never got you down
