Sage Francis Worry Not
CHORUS
Worry not, keep the stress in check
Anxiety's a disease, you gotta learn to live with it
Cancer spreads, it'll eat right through
There oughta be a quarantine for people like you
I keep clenching my jaw when I sleep
I ain't got no dental insurance, so I purchased a mouth
piece
It helps me collect all my teeth, coz they keep falling
out in my dreams
Repeating each step till I'm knee deep in sweat
Till you need deeper sleep between sheets and weak sex
If you need to eat meat then just feed on the flesh
If your will power's weak seekin' ye shall find death
It'll rent it'll lease it'll own you
Can't teach new tricks to in a old school
I've been banned from the bible
But I stand on my own two
Runnin from something my legs have no clue
Burnin through every last nerve that I got
This condition is more than deserved but I'm not
Killing the time I'm ringin' it's neck
Chokin it out and I'm stealin' its breath
Sucking it in and then blowing a kiss
To the caution I tossed to the wind like this
CHORUS
Worry not, keep the stress in check
Anxiety's a disease, you gotta learn to live with it
Cancer spreads, it'll eat right through
There oughta be a quarantine for people like you
Oh you're scared of the dark? then sleep in the light
You came for the bark but then leave when I bite?
Breakin' a sweat,
You fainting awake wit a fang in your neck
And a pain in your chest
Holes in your power your drained and your wet
When you threw in the towel I caught it like rent
That was well played - you ain't self made
You went from daycare to preschool from K-12 grade
And that's hardwired holding your brain
Not to mention the rules at the house where you stayed
Synagogue mosque or the church where you prayed
As a child tamed like your wild!
Reprogram - DEPROGRAM
There aint nothin they say we don't know man
They been breakin our vulnerable people
And claimin that everything in us is evil
I see them in hell then - but until then
You should chill friend (Just chill!)
Play pretend with the forces of organized
Superstition and get played in the end
I was killing the time I was ringin' it's neck
Chokin it out and then stealin' its breath
Sucking it in and then blowing a kiss
To the caution I tossed to the wind like this
