Lyrics - Shuckin' The Jive by Black Happy

I see my brother walking on the edgehe's holding back his fear and so he smiles insteadof looking for the snap and all the weight is on his backand when he shifts his head and he plays dead hewhispers what
I want
I want
Peace coming down over me
My sisters caught up in the holy lights
But what she chose to do is so far removed from rightthat she's always wanting something moreto keep herself from being bored and when she shiftsher head and she plays dead and shewhispers what
I want
I want
Peace coming down over me
I can't tell you how to live you're old enough now to givewe move in circles big and small on every daymy mind is quicker than my eyewhen my heads pointed to the sky
I notice everything inside me is at ease
I wish
I could help them all when
I can't feel so smallbut then
I realize sometimes
I can't help myselfand every night when
I pray
I don't know what
I should say
I can do more than damn myself
My family is calling, coming any dayand
I know by the book that the time will lose it's waybecause a world inside is waiting for a place in line to bewhere the truth is clear and it appears and theywhisper what
I want
I want
Peace coming down over me
