His destiny was just too big to spend

So he broke it into smaller bills and change

By the time he'd try to buy the things he needed

He had spent it all on Lucy's and weed and

He had spent it all on chips and Coca-Cola

He had spent it all on chocolate and vanilla

verse 2
G
All the poets in the alley coughing up blood
G
And their visions and their dreams are coming up red
G#
They can neither wake up or go deeper
G
But it's so dangerous to wake a deep sleeper
G
It's like awakening a bear in winter
G
To feel the reckoning of hunger sprinter
G#
He's gonna stretch his claws and feel his power
G
And you are gonna know your final hour

Better get a head start, start running
G
While you were skimming from the top was sunny
G#
But all the weather 'bout to turn real crummy
G
Cause everybody gonna want their money
G
Yeah, everybody gonna want their money
G
Better get ahead start, start running
G#
Better get ahead start, start running
G
Cause it's about to get so unfunny
G
All the poets in the alley coughing up blood
G
And their visions and their dreams are coming up red
G#
They can neither wake up or go deeper
G
But it's so dangerous to wake a deep sleeper
