a club called lotus (the folly of solomon) - kyle stibbs lyrics

[spoken intro]
“can i trust you?”

[chorus]
johnny just lost focus, working late nights at a club called “lotus”
no girl that he puts on a pedestal
busy picking petals still
root of the problem is
he can’t find love, but he knows where the coke is
can’t find joy, wanna know what the joke is?
workin’ late nights at a club called “lotus”
johnny just died, but he didn’t notice

[verse 1]
would you trade in your income for wisdom?
the folly of solomon was having ‘em both
the wisdom is “so called”
h**rding is so odd
if he was intelligent, he would’ve been broke

[verse 2]
you have everything that your neighbour needs
in their clay*pot*home, like diogenеs
they need help, and you understand
but thе coin looks wrong in their dirty hand
so keep ‘em! (keep ‘em.)
money isn’t power, it’s freedom. (freedom.)
effort isn’t value, so bleed ‘em. (bleed ‘em.)
bleed ‘em.(bleed ‘em)
bleed ‘em (work)
bleed ‘em (work)
[verse 3]
man, power. need manpower (yuh)
need a workforce, so they need to work for us (yuh)
man, power
better when it’s ours
johnny, get a job by the end of the hour

[verse 4]
yeah, johnny just died, but it hasn’t kicked in yet
childhood ended, brief like a vignette
daddy was a gambler, so johnny had his first breath in debt
no hobbies, but he still gets “interest”
lotus flowers close up when it’s night
then they open up when it is dawn
the club has got it backwards, it’s all wrong
(hope, hope, hope)
[bridge]
it’s impossible to be an apostle of positivity, johnny, you gotta be negative
keep wipin’ tables and sippin’ on sedative
sins of the father, so pain’s always “relative”
you gotta hold it down
mama can’t hold you now
here, have another drink
pray that you never drown
the lotus can blossom in mud
i won’t identify with my darkness
i will reach up for the sun
i haven’t died, i’ve restarted

[verse 5]
would you trade in your income for wisdom?
the folly of solomon was having ‘em both
the wisdom is “so called”
h**rding is so odd
if he was intelligent, he would’ve been broke
love them
lead them
f*ck them
bleed them
(there’s no need to cry, no*one makes it out alive.)

[verse 6]
i don’t care to be
looking carefully
at disparity
with all clarity
you don’t care for me
you’re not scarin’ me
get no charity
johnny knows what he should do
in his heart, he knows it’s true
being kind on his mind
we’re all so wise ’til rent come due
[chorus]
johnny just lost focus, working late nights at a club called “lotus”
no girl that he puts on a pedestal
busy picking petals still
root of the problem is
he can’t find love, but he knows where the coke is
can’t find joy, wanna know what the joke is?
workin’ late nights at a club called “lotus”
johnny just died, but he didn’t notice
