lirik lagu the honey boy thug paradox – morgan madden
cracks in street tops reach out like vines in a concrete jungle
the air is stifling
heat and humidity bring out the impatience of its inhabitants
broken bottles and cigarette b-tts litter the scene
the common p-ssersby tread them underfoot on their way to bigger and better things
time and progress have done much the same
tensions rise like the mercury in thermometers in dilapidated old houses
this is our street, our block, our city
outsiders are to be held away at a safe distance
weakness is a hazard to your health
toughness is a necessary sk!ll set to be honed over time
to show humanity or comp-ssion is to open yourself up to being exploited
thus exists the honey boy thug paradox
those boys that start off sweet and malleable yet become bitter and gritty over time out of necessity
skepticism of good intentions has beaten the optimism out of them. shattered expectations adorn their psyches like the gl-ss in the streets
they have nowhere else to go
it’s a cold, unforgiving segment of the world
the roots of generations hold firm and true
the quicksand of this lifestyle will suck you 6 feet under if you too much too fast
addiction to the grind and complacency is too much to bear for most
the honey boy thugs roam looking to protect and represent what little they have
there are codes of conduct and ethics
violations of these result in swift retribution
the ensuing onslaught d-mns them to a short lifespan or a full lifetime of walking around spent sh-lls and chalk lines
the p-ssersby in this plight tread them underfoot
the honey boy thugs are trampled in the hustle leaving the streets honey glazed
