I Feel No Pain in My Gums

[Verse]
Teeth sharp, cuttin’ through the lies of the numb,
Dental drill rhythm, beat hums where I’m from.
Grit in my molars, wisdom heavy as boulders,
No novocaine needed, my spirit colder.
Flossin’ through the fake, plaque stackin’ on the truth,
Chewin’ on the past, left a bitter root.
Tongue sharp, split syllables, venom spills,
Swallowed my pain, now my hunger kills.
[Chorus]
I feel no pain in my gums,
Numb to the drums, numb to the crumbs.
Grind my teeth ‘til the nightmares come,
But I feel no pain, no pain in my gums.
[Verse 2]
Jaw locked, spittin’ bars harder than enamel,
Bite down on the system, watch it dismantle.
Cavities in the soul, tryna fill ‘em with gold,
But the shine fades fast, and the story gets old.
Hygiene dreams, clean cuts in the grime,
Braces on the chaos, straightenin’ time.
Roots deep in the cracks, I grow where I’m planted,
Bite marks on the world, my truth’s enchanted.
[Chorus]
I feel no pain in my gums,
Numb to the drums, numb to the crumbs.
Grind my teeth ‘til the nightmares come,
But I feel no pain, no pain in my gums.
