Cave Dweller (ft. (Alex​)​Slander)

from Self Titled LP by Novatore

lyrics

agoraphobic, I only leave the house if I'm devoted i try to focus on the poetry ill be unloading, when I go out I try to fit this hollow halo on me
zombies wanna take it from me soon you see me choking them, I used to brag about it now I'm kinda sickened but I'd rather be the victor then bully or the victim. I throw the first punch but never really start a fight unless its with an enemy, to nazis I'm vindictive. I never act hard and always try to show respect, I'm never out to prove myself to anybody, but id be lying if i said I didn't hate the world and maybe thats the reason that I'm down to get so gully. I I was always taught that I should try to hold it down for myself and for the people that surround me, half the time im getting crazy in my own defense the other half is for the homies thats around me


(hook x's 2 )

I hardly ever leave the house because I'm over it
I got a hatred for society, its obvious
just wanna sit back relax and talk a little shit
and when I say little bit I really mean a lot of it


verse 2

its ten o'clock, saturday you know where you can find me, you can find me in the cave that be confining me, it aint about fear its all about my patience and i know the world is shit don't need nothing to remind me, i try to turn to the bottle for some tolerance so I can find some interest in some shitty conversations, I got frustrations with world for all its ignorance
but every time I leave I try to lower expectations, I wish that I could rewind it to some older times back when things were new and I found everything exciting- I used hate to come home and even hated sleep I didn't need a drink just so I could be inviting. Even fighting was a skill that I was picking up, quick enough I learned that i was nasty with the knuckles. I had a bone to pic but now I've not a shit to give and I just wanna fuckin live aint looking for a scuffle


(Hook 2x's)

Verse 3 ((Alex)slander)

All I wanna do is build
While tearing down the walls around me
Every zombie at this party's on their phone messaging somebody else
They call it woke but it's just sleepwalkin' soundly
I've been feeling severely out of place like I was Buddy the Elf
So I'll dust my shelves of that small talk
Never lose/loose grip on shit, cause I was born taught/taut
Not to listen when the cornstalks whisper
Cause the same jealous winds blow south every winter
So I keep minding my business, finding the glitches
That y'all miss at the club actin' a scrub to these women
And yeah I get it; a realistic cynic when I spit it
Been in the house so long I'm practically a senator
Better off spending all my time alone
Cause these days most people just as smart as their phones
So I keep seeking truth through music; Mark Snow
Killin' shit, I'm part drone
While I'm blazing in the north sky, settling my dark throne
