Accidental Self - We Never Change

I feel I’ve been alive for a million years
And in all that time I’ve never figured out my peers
Oh I ain’t figured out a thing
Oh but I know we never change
Just wear a different lens but that shit still smells the same
Oh we never changed
Just wear a different lens but that shit still smells the same
My psychosis mitosis I’ve noticed
When the split happens I keep losin’ my focus
It’s just back and forth and around and 'round and 'round again
Until the shell hardens
Well can you think do you think must you think real fast like me
I just had so many thoughts that I filled up the sea
Well I went from cold on to hot right back down to cold again
And that’s the story of how I tear myself up within
With a devil on one side a devil on the other side
With a devil on one side a devil on the other side
They say two wrongs hell they ain’t ever made no right
But a million of them will if you marinate it in your web of lies
So I say listen what I say
Listen carefully
If I could have one thing I could have one thing
It would be for you to be at the bottom of the
Why can’t you see/sea Why can’t you see/sea
I guess sometimes it just drowns in the subtlety
Oh we never change
We just wear a different lens
But that shit still smells the same
Oh we never change
We just wear a different lens
But that shit still smells the same
Your acrimonious cacophony is what’s holding us back
I seek the truth do you know where it’s at
He said Oh there’s a truth but no one knows where it is
Our leaders do their best run distraction just to keep it hidden and when
Some poor old fool stumbles across a little piece
You can bet they’re gonna gun him down right in the streets metaphorically
Because they got much craftier since back in the day
Watch the stories change from he was slain to he passed away today
Oh we never change
We just wear a different lens
But that shit still smells the same
Oh we never change
We just wear a different lens
But that shit still smells the same
And the birds from the trees come to sit with me
As we share our thoughts on what it means to be free
Maybe when all the prejudice is gone
Then we can start to work on the real freedom
Ooh baby that’s freedom of the soul
And that’s something that ain’t ever been free before
Oh we never change
We just wear a different lens
But that shit still smells the same
Oh we never change
We just wear a different lens
But that shit still smells the same
The same stank
