Young Dread 6th & Mission
steadies his head for another weekend,
family of 5 ducks by on vacation,
search the application for a safe location.
Wheelchair Jim to noone in particular,
“Anyone wanna buy a nice fake leather?”
Johnny V hoses down the showdown says,
“Looks like earthquake weather …”
The Love and the Fight
The Fire and the Light
Life on all sides … Mission Breakdown.
Hope eternal in the shadow of the Twitter sign,
Prosperity gospel all the way to the bread line,
Celebrity weekend at the startup engine,
methadone clinic slash soup kitchen.
Looking pretty hip 16th & Valencia,
on your first trip out to California,
on an air conditioned bus the size of Arizona,
escorted by an unmarked Crown Victoria.
The Love and the Fight
The Fire and the Light
Life on all sides … Mission Breakdown.
15 years its a split decision,
tell my friends I’m leaving the Mission,
pack your trash your google glass and your creepy vacant stare.
if you’re coming to San Francisco, Baby,
don’t put no flowers in your hair,
just stay the way you are, Baby,
everyone’s from somewhere …
The Love and the Fight
The Fire and the Light
Life on all sides … Mission Breakdown.
