Lyrical Analysis of...

Jagged Glass

  1. The land’s black, the air’s bad, the path’s jagged glass
  2. But I made it, I climbed and fought, left y’all to rot like some trash
  3. Y’all lashin’, hands outstretched, banging, grasping, scratching
  4. Always wanting, taking, dragging, I’d been down there in my past life
  5. Standing in the mass with my hands shaking and my eyes hollow
  6. Mouth open, waiting for the next hit that kept me low
  7. I’d been one of y’all, starving and sucking on the sickness
  8. But I climbed, and you hated that cause y’all are just some bitches
  9. You hated the way I had pulled past you before you could blink
  10. Hated that I had fought hard and left you to sink
  11. Hated that I had snapped the leash off my neck
  12. And let you choke on their own filth so you could be upset
  13. Hated that I had left you and them behind
  14. But what the hell was I supposed to do with my time
  15. Stay rotting in that pile, hands out, waiting for my next fix
  16. You said you were gonna climb but you lied like a bitch
  17. You swore you’d break free, but you stayed down there
  18. You said you could stop, you said it wasn’t real so you weren’t scared
  19. You said you were strong, you were wrong, I watched you below, as
  20. A lost thing, moaning, swaying, arms out, mouth open
  21. Waiting for the next wave to crash over you, it could’ve been me
  22. I could’ve been down there, choking and rotting
  23. I could’ve let myself be taken, could’ve followed you and given in
  24. But I climbed, and I ain’t going back ever again
  25. Fog rolling thick and low, swallowing the ground
  26. Voices calling, clawing at my ribs, trying to pull me back down
  27. But you can scream, you can cry, you can curse my name
  28. But you can’t have me, not now, not ever, I cast that bridge into flames
  29. The sun’s been swallowed by the filth below, I’m standing on the roof
  30. Of the Willis Tower, looking down at the wreckage of the avenue
  31. Where the bodies crawlin’ like maggots over the bones of a city
  32. That should’ve burned years ago, but I escaped, I dragged myself out
  33. I had climbed, but they never let go, they still called when I was around
  34. The hollow eyed fiends clawing at the pavement
  35. Rattling the empty subway tunnels, like go away pricks
  36. You’re still down there, swaying in front of the ruins of a Walgreens
  37. Where we used to slip through the back door with crumpled money
  38. Where you used to tell me it wasn’t bad, that it wouldn’t be lasting
  39. That it’s just a rough patch, and that I’m overreacting
  40. And now you’re just another corpse with a heartbeat
  41. I’m feeling the craving rise up in me, like an old enemy
  42. Whispering through my bloodstream, the sickness never leaves
  43. It just waits, watches, bides its time, just one more, you can come back
  44. You were never better than us, now the city’s slithering with the damned
  45. Half human, half something else, I see them slumped over in the alleys
  46. Of South Side, nodding off, they lost, I won, they can’t come at me
  47. Reach into my backpack, fingers gripping the cold steel, rip off a corpse
  48. Pull it out, I’d taken it off a dead guy behind a 7 eleven earlier before
  49. Then I flick the flame and see you staring at me from below
  50. With your vacant eyes, your arms are limp and your body’s about to fold
  51. Telling me that I’ll be back, and I tell you not in this lifetime
  52. I let go, and the city burns from daytime to nighttime
