"The Ten Count" by Boon Keeme

Preferred Band/Artist: AKA

Verse 1:
Will l feel queasy?
Or breathless and breathy
Emit only sounds you evoke
If I should waiver
Abandon in favor
Of your totalitarian connote?
(Will I)
Reigned by a despot
Be stuck in the same spot
Naively assumed years ago?
(Realise)
Inconsequential
The mistakes of youth are
’Til I out-performed my own role

Hook:
Won’t take the ten count (x3)
Surmise I will rise, though you’ve battered my soul …

Chorus:
No more Father Christmas
Been run out of business
Damnation, has bested a lump of coal
My hands are blistered
The haze has been lifted
To the knowledge
You’ve peddled (x2)
I’ve peddled my soul.

Verse 2:
May I be listless?
Dismiss my Unclothedness
Address my empirical robes
(Well life)
She is a temptress
Life is an empress
Tugging at me by the lobe
Whispers I hear you
Though I can not cure you
The counters of Justice churn slow
(And I’m)
I’m what a friend is
Don’t know what the end is
I’ll stay if it chimes or it bellows and bawls

Hook:
Won’t take the ten count (x3)
Surmise I will rise, though you’ve battered my soul …

Chorus:
No more Father Christmas
Been run out of business
Damnation, has bested a lump of coal
My hands are blistered
The haze has been lifted
To the knowledge
You’ve peddled (x2)
I’ve peddled my soul.

Middle 8
I’m surprised I have
Wide eyes affixed on a goal
Surprised I have license
To take back control
Surprised that it’s high time
I fly on my own.
Surprised I surmised I will rise
(Battered soul)

Collision

Chorus:
No more Father Christmas
Been run out of business
Damnation, has bested a lump of coal
My hands are blistered
The haze has been lifted
To the knowledge
You’ve peddled (x2)
I’ve peddled my soul.

(Surprise)
I won’t be chastised
(Surprise)
I’ll fight my own fight
(Surprise)
My heart bursts with might
I’m surprised I surmised I will rise

Won’t take the ten count …
