Don’t Speak lyrics

by

Aesop Rock


[Verse 1]
Don’t speak, put your ears on
I reinvigorated me with the fears gone
To each his own, bury bones in the Tetons
The skeleton in my closet is gone thanks to spring cleaning

I smell home every time there’s a sprinkling
Rain on the asphalt, triggering an inkling of what’s to come
I hit the ferry soon as summer come, they’ll recognize phenomenon
Haters turned to sucker, son, like dum dums

They turning backs to me and acting like they running from
Weak-seeking tommy gun heat will melt them off like butter
Brasco the undercutter, undertaker, and mortician
Talk like I’m hardcore and more listen

But, characters welcome we’re just playing a game
The voices in my head are saying the same
They say I’m insane. Claim what I’m saying’s inane
Call me crazy but what’s in a name, Shakespeare?
Nothing

[Hook}
Tell me where you’re going if it’s with me
Tell me who you’re listening to if it is me
Tell me what you’re thinking about, cause I can’t see
If I ain’t the one on your mind, then just don’t speak
[Verse 2]
And don’t speak if you lie much. If you are
Conspiring deceit, keep your mouth shut. Keep away from me
Or run the risk of getting fouled up mentally
A century of wisdom coming from a decade doubled up

I hop and skip adversity like double dutch
Always on the up and up. Honestly, ill will and bad luck can suck a nut
That demon on your shoulder? I’m here to exorcise it
Watch eyes roll back like walmart prices

I am not afraid of death, Osiris
I’m afraid of growing old without ever knowing my Isis
When I’m alone, sh*t is borderline lifeless
But for now we can chalk it up to quarterlife crisis

But better that than a Johnny Truant death wish
I’ll blow down your leaf house and fell troy from a necklace
A somber face of mine is hiding in the locket
You can cast it aside or stash chain in chest pocket

[Hook]
