The Adventures of Matte Black - Underground Lyrics

The queen of the underground is on the come-up
Do you need more or less in your cup
Whatever gets you through
I'm all like, nothing is forever, nothing ever lasts
You look me in the eyes; nothing ever gets past you

I'm falling in love, and it feels like the first time
And I'm crawling, out of a hole that I dug the last time
Tears in the sky raining from your eyes
And you know that I never forget a tune
You can't always have your way, not everyday
It's not everyday roses stay in bloom

It's a sadness
That's timeless and endless
But someone's' gotta feel
Get down and keep it real
Let em' know that we're growing

A rose that grows knows it doesn't know
I got my petals to the devil so my roots can show
You start in the underground; in time you'll return
I spit it in my verses and the bridges that I burn
Life cuts like a knife, but sings like bird
There's beauty in pain and truth in the absurd
There's beauty in pain and truth in the absurd
There's beauty in pain and truth in the absurd
There's beauty in pain and truth in the absurd

There's beauty in discipline and value in work
I'm a dreamer I ain't telling you what to do
Practice combats them underground blues
There's beauty in pain and truth in the absurd
There's beauty in discipline and value in work
I'm a dreamer I ain't telling you what to do
Practice combats them underground blues
There's beauty in pain and truth in the absurd
There's beauty in pain and truth in the absurd
