Nature of a Falling Sun, Pt. 2

I was leanin’ on the house today and saw some folks starin’ at the sun

I was thinkin’ to myself ‘Well shit, you can’t see nothin’ with the sun in yer eyes like that’

Anyways, they started scramblin’ and screamin’ that the sun was gettin’ bigger

They was yellin’ the sun was goin’ to hit the Earth soon, you know, shit like that

I looked up yonder and sure ‘nough that sun was gettin’ bigger and we was gonna die

Them folks was carryin’ on about WHY and WHEN and how big the sun was

I thought to myself ‘Well hell, why are you worryin’ about them insignificancies?’

I mean it don’t matter ‘bout why that sun is fallin’ or when it’ll fall out the sky

I just know myself that the sun’s fallin’, it might as well be now, and we’re gonna die

That there’s just the nature of a fallin’ sun and that’s how it’s gonna be

Them folks need to quit their cryin’ and yappin’ and quit givin’ a damn about that sun

I keep thinkin’ ‘bout what my neighbor John Ezekial Rice said when we was talkin’ about it yet

‘We all’re gonna die and I’d say in these last units o’ time we all do what the fuck we were here to do all along and love and care and forgive and forget and remember and chuckle and pray and share that community we all done forgot all them years ago; goddamn them self-indulgent folks and goddamn that fallin’ sun.’
