barkley park - midnight samurai lyrics

[verse 7: jonny farias]
before the earworms, it was film first
save you the spiel, i was really on my spielberg
used to live where the concourse curve
memorized scripture by the verse, couple vigils on the curb in one summer
grade school crushes, many rushes, was quick to trust ’em
highs and byes, felt my grandmother’s love in abundance
the mangú she made was sweet, fried salami cut in circles
panca mints and pastelitos, warmth from her hugs eternal
the sight of a correa and my blood would curdle
heat had me sluggish as a turtle, bees cover the murals
satisfaction rare as that one friend’s laughter
stage fright used to have me stiff as a cadaver
mortality in the background like chatter, like a cancer
new stages, new chapters, every year a new standard
jackson pollock to a blank canvas, watched the ink splatter
campaigns came and went, never got to the heart of the matter
loss of balance from ballots, put all their eggs in a basket, then cracking happens
we fall from walls, can we mend what’s been fractured
or what always was? uncle got deported when your boy was young
i can’t remember his face
we lost him in 2018, things were never the same
i lost rosa 2019, grim to visit her grave
i lost lorenzo 2020, please remember the name
wish he could hear me on the radio, a lot done changed
hope their voices don’t fade
