Лифт - Oxxxymiron

Copied!

{Verse 1}
H-H-H-Halogen strobing, coals in my caddy
The elevator's filled with whoever's in it
Myth, hear me, press Erdgeschoss, keep it inside
Hi-hi-hit of the squirrel is ruby, the pulse is a locomotive (Erdgeschoss)
Above the abyss, on a cable the cab
S-s-s-s-s-so tight, I'm in the middle of nowhere
Sorry, Mom, your embrace is suffocating
I'd rather smoke than your broken whispers:
“It's all college kids in there!”
In the elevator mirror, your profile is humped with biblical sorrow
Insulted pridе shines through childish flesh
Slavic noses, boyish basics
“Thеy're clearly not the ones their fathers messed with, Easter without matzah
The esophagus pulses
The creepiness is traveling down my stomach
What if I said out loud all the things that live inside? (Erdgeschoss)
Above the abyss, on a cable the cabin
The song is sung
What if the tape comes off the reel?
Oh, inside me is my mother's worry
Away from home, the lair is pulling me back
My stomach twists into a knot till I'm a lamb's horn
I wish I didn't puke on the corrugated metal floor

{Bridge}
Ooh, shame on the family, with a son who's a stiff
Boo-hoo, the overprotective, sweet-talking
On the elevator guys with everything inside to throw up
Right on their needlepoint ninety-eight's max's

{Chorus}
Initiation, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers
Initiation, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers
Initiation, fathers, fathers, fathers, but where are the father's fathers?
Initiation, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers, I am father's son
