WHEN I SAID MY WORLD, MY RULES I MEANT TO SAY YOUR WORLD, YOUR RULES
All or nothing posture
Clashing with cash gifts
A daily reckoning
With the fine print
Weekly updates like clockwork
Devil Dog aesthetic
And rightly so
$1,000 gets you
The rest of your life
Lacquered tears
Might yet come in handy
Generosity ruined in the womb
Fresh out of crematorium
Gift certificates
When I said
My world, my rules
I meant to say
Your world, your rules
Thinking this is easy
Lord you’re right
Saw you passing
Notes through turquoise bars
Cracked envious
Wishing my gate
Would swing similarly
Clashing with cash gifts
A daily reckoning
With the fine print
Weekly updates like clockwork
Devil Dog aesthetic
And rightly so
$1,000 gets you
The rest of your life
Lacquered tears
Might yet come in handy
Generosity ruined in the womb
Fresh out of crematorium
Gift certificates
When I said
My world, my rules
I meant to say
Your world, your rules
Thinking this is easy
Lord you’re right
Saw you passing
Notes through turquoise bars
Cracked envious
Wishing my gate
Would swing similarly
