Issue No 143 Rain Damage Lyrics
Rain Damage by Issue No. 143
(Verse)
Molded out of brimstone, learn to take a lashing on the coal's hot metal
Pressing on the skin of my ghost
I've been walking the plank of it, blindfolded,
And know what it's like when the knife's out the holster, truth!
That's the only reason I'm still alive
Crow's nest, throwing hope into broken sky,
No time left to put it on the line
So if anybody asks just tell them I died trying
The gapped-tooth rapper is back,
With a bag full of I-don't-give-a-fuck-for-that-ass,
Rhyme sayers, put the logo on the back
If ever you were looking now you knew where I'm at
Name's Benjamin, same as I eva been
Slipping on a glass full of ice-cold Templeton,
Cloud city, rain brought up on the brim,
Running with my back against the wind
(Hook)
Rain Damage,
Found me in the midnight, midnight
Walking in the downpour, downpour
With that look in my eyes
(Verse)
Filed to a point, allergic to the cousin of death,
I'm writing with the kick drum stuck in my chest
I've been about it, you can smell it on my breath
There's a fire that's inside of me ready to be set,
Drive, that's the reason for the fight in me,
Clock tower, 10-0-4 lie to me,
Must be something in the blood and the bones
That got me running out risking it all when you won't
The love song rapper is back,
With a bus full of nail-riddled baseball bats,
B. Lewis put a beatin' on the track,
Let her say I go him like a bite of babe's ass
Name's Benjamin, same as I eva been
Commin' to your town with some dirty rotten gentlemen
Cloud city, rainwater till the grave
Sailing with my back against the wave
(Hook x2)
Rain Damage,
Found me in the midnight, midnight
Walking in the downpour, downpour
With that look in my eyes
Molded out of brimstone, learn to take a lashing on the coal's hot metal
Pressing on the skin of my ghost
I've been walking the plank of it, blindfolded,
And know what it's like when the knife's out the holster, truth!
That's the only reason I'm still alive
Crow's nest, throwing hope into broken sky,
No time left to put it on the line
So if anybody asks just tell them I died trying
The gapped-tooth rapper is back,
With a bag full of I-don't-give-a-fuck-for-that-ass,
Rhyme sayers, put the logo on the back
If ever you were looking now you knew where I'm at

Slipping on a glass full of ice-cold Templeton,
Cloud city, rain brought up on the brim,
