I met a metaphorical girl in a metaphysical world |
| [00:21.68] |
Now you got me day dreaming, sleeping in a curl |
| [00:24.00] |
Her name on my tongue, a fresh flavor, yup |
| [00:26.46] |
Whenever she popped up, put a swirl on my cone |
| [00:29.10] |
I used to rap like I had some marbles in my mouth |
| [00:31.21] |
But the stones turned precious when they all came out |
| [00:33.63] |
On a string of deep thought that could never be bought |
| [00:36.02] |
|
| [00:38.64] |
Cold as ice so I stared as it thawed to the floor, |
| [00:41.19] |
What was left a shoestring budget on call |
| [00:43.48] |
Then these new styles came along |
| [00:45.65] |
Some on to the next on some other hit, their own trip |
| [00:48.15] |
Colors faded on airbrushed centerfolds, dated |
| [00:50.90] |
Make you feel old and jaded |
| [00:52.74] |
The goal was to make it and we made it but |
| [00:54.59] |
We didn't know how to keep it |
| [00:56.68] |
Like nice kicks. that wouldn't fit |
| [00:58.24] |
Only way was to box it up and duct tape it up |
| [01:00.43] |
Store it underneath the bed and open it up |
| [01:02.80] |
Once in a blue moon, |
| [01:04.18] |
Think about a cool ending |
| [01:06.12] |
To a story that ended too soon |
| [01:07.69] |
Gotta bring back the feeling |
| [01:09.56] |
I'll do anything not to be stuck on fiending |
| [01:12.22] |
A pen can be sharper than a scalpel to a patient |
| [01:14.83] |
To an open heart, it's a daily operation |
| [01:17.18] |
|
| [01:19.85] |
Access code to the pearly gates |
| [01:22.07] |
They say heaven can wait |
| [01:23.21] |
And you speak of fate |
| [01:24.53] |
A finale to a play for my mate |
| [01:25.90] |
I see the angels draw the drapes over the earthscape |
| [01:30.24] |
Where the wine is the spirit of grapes |
| [01:32.11] |
Gotta finish what we started, so I cut the tape |
| [01:34.05] |
As our records will stay on rotate |
| [01:56.37] |
You say a circle is a flawless shape |
| [01:58.58] |
Every part equi-distance from the center |
| [02:01.41] |
On the arc without a start or a finish |
| [02:02.83] |
A line on a loop carries weight |
| [02:04.65] |
A freight train runs unabated |
| [02:06.54] |
Views vanish from my point vantage, |
| [02:08.29] |
Passages come in and out |
| [02:09.75] |
The way I recall your antics (how I remember your antics) |
| [02:11.56] |
Still alive cause I said it |
| [02:13.07] |
A life of its own unless we dead it |
| [02:15.21] |
Till they see our name in credits |
| [02:16.84] |
A labor of love you mean slavery |
| [02:18.93] |
Surely, it's been quite savory |
| [02:21.38] |
Crepe on the balcony, verbal alchemy |
| [02:23.75] |
Pure magic when she touches me |
| [02:25.89] |
I read that love is kind but it's also blind of any style |
| [02:29.62] |
You profess, would you be my guest (you could be my guest) |
| [02:31.42] |
Happiness is a hot potato that you can't possess for long |
| [02:34.66] |
Just pass it on like a song |
| [02:36.36] |
And I might look calm and collected at a glance |
| [02:38.74] |
But I taste the void when I'm not connected |
| [02:41.02] |
To the world kinetic, as opposed to static |
| [02:43.59] |
I'd hands a workshop of a digital addict (a modern-day addict) |
| [02:45.95] |
On a hot streak for inspiration is key to feed The mind in need of stimulation |
| [02:51.06] |
Elevator music to the space station |
| [02:53.33] |
Penthouse of stars a-blazing |
| [02:55.45] |
|
| [02:57.56] |
Access code to the pearly gates |
| [03:00.05] |
They say heaven can wait |
| [03:01.36] |
And you speak of fate |
| [03:02.47] |
A finale to a play for my mate |
| [03:04.21] |
I see the angels draw the drape over the earthscape |
| [03:08.41] |
Where the wine is the spirit of grapes |
| [03:11.00] |
Gotta finish what we started, so I cut the tape |
| [03:13.36] |
As our records will stay on rotate |
