Rearviewmirror [Sept. 1st 2005] Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings, made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks
Or apologize
[Chorus 1]
I couldn't breathe
Holding me down
Hand on my face
Pushed to the ground
Enmity gauged
United by fear
Forced to endure what I could not forgive
[Verse 2]
I seem to look away
The wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface
Most defiled
[Chorus 2]
Head at your feet
Fool to your crown
Pissed on my plate
Swallowed it down
Enmity gauged
United by fear
Tried to endure what I could not forgive, yeah
I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings, made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks
Or apologize
[Chorus 1]
I couldn't breathe
Holding me down
Hand on my face
Pushed to the ground
Enmity gauged
United by fear
Forced to endure what I could not forgive
[Verse 2]
I seem to look away
The wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface
Most defiled
[Chorus 2]
Head at your feet
Fool to your crown
Pissed on my plate
Swallowed it down
Enmity gauged
United by fear
Tried to endure what I could not forgive, yeah
[Bridge]
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Clearer, clearer
Oh, once you
Were in my
Rear-view mirror
I gather speed
From you fucking with me
Once and for all
I'm far away
Hard to believe
Finally the shades... are raised
Hey, yeah
[Outro]
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rear-view mirror!
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rear-view mirror!
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rear-view mirror!
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you)
Oh yeah
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Clearer, clearer
Oh, once you
Were in my
Rear-view mirror
I gather speed
From you fucking with me
Once and for all
I'm far away
Hard to believe
Finally the shades... are raised
Hey, yeah
[Outro]
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rear-view mirror!
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rear-view mirror!
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rear-view mirror!
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you)
Oh yeah
