Back in 2015 i had a notion What if i were john b's sloop kristopher krossing frank ocean Lil yacht rocky hot boxing emotions Im a badddd scientist popping potions You can find me pining for explosions Your love is the rhythm of my devotion Our ship is so extravagantly golden But oh shit something frozen's approaching Lets party anyways who cares if we are sinking Like symphonies our sympathies are forever unblinking Spend every day and every night with glasses clinking But when the party ends will you remember thinking This was all a dream serenaded by stars twinkling A suitcase of songs from which no one gets an inkling Our hearts by their names we will be forever screaming Our now ghostly frames  invisibly harmonizing Fall asleep on the keyboard texting memes to my bestie Just 87 #s and this all bears repeating yes it all bears repeating

hecka tired 01:47
We were renters never buyers Re-doers and 2nd tryers These days im two words hecka tired Our tears fill sewers like storms expired Our fears the ghostly forms we aquired Haunting old family fotos in matching normie attire We were Born to aspire to something bigger than ourselves But In the mathematics of compassion our figures were withheld And I miss being held by something other than depression or anxiety And i miss you getting high with me watching cartoons in their entirety love yet looms like the fire left inside of me Unfanned and unstoked and choking entirely Traumas of our youth sadly standard variety fake scared for every single game of hide-and-seek Awkward as young loves and the words they tried to speak But change is one thing i need you to describe to me If a revolution is what we need than tell me why can't we Rearrange the space in our hearts to be more accommodating Of love for each other and forgiveness for ourselves

If music were food id be taco Pastorius Hold onto yr breath ill show what the story is with my batleth you know im victorious rap battles to the death oh so glorious From here to the gamma quadrant im steady notorious If rap were the nba theyd be callin me the warriors Smoke so much hydro im resembling vaporeons Those other emcees are corny as metachlorians But baby baby thats very seldom how our story ends Just maybe lately im Harry seldon, psychohistorian Steamin up some hams you know i might go for four of them Spit fire in the kitchen thats where aurora borealis is Im gonna be all up in them bones like david boreanis is Haters cant handle this, anons just be some rando cis Im a beer like dark horse and they're just a can of piss Spend all of my days steady firing up some cannabis Honey i shrunk the rappers tell me where the fuck rick moranis is? Im cooler than dave coulier and my exes they alanises Im More mythical and magical than multiple antlantis's The only thing you want like bamboo to a pandas wish Romance like gomez and the mic's my hand to kiss Spit rhymes so tight drizzy just might be a fan of this Some times at night get busy just lighting candles n shit If Rna stores memories im resorting to canabalism Risk kuru for sulu in a fubu im hidetusugu's manic visions Like brandon or bruce ill prolly die to bullet or an anyurism A dandy fop but i made her panties drop with my fanciful mannerisms Still crust as fuck tho like my name was antischism Sim city archipelagos my power plants be fission I might just kill all the white men take back the land we missin Im Diego's street art and they're banksys vandalisms Like the second coming of yeezus and hes risen Built a religion for giant robots called it animeism Alls right with with the world and gods up in his heaven Threat level dragon when im hittin the road again Like shang tsun out here looking for some souls to bend Other rappers words are last years memes im so over them Like neil in the 80s its the weight of the world im shoulderin' Tho ive been there once couldnt tell you where denver starts and boulder ends Rockin california fishes like them pennsylvania colder pens I spit fire like dylon and i left the studio smolderin Sitch is Dire like sylons you used to know as older friends Minds expired with prions when i take theirs skulls and open em Im entirely high on the spirit taking time up and foldin it My lifes a love letter and i dont know wether to hold or send Honestly this rap shit has been overwhelmingly soberin Got mad stacks and fat swishas Squared up like dad kisses Struck out on bad misses Drugged out on rap disses Shrugged out like atlases Lugged out like mattresses Bugged out by bad witches Hunks out like manwiches Yunks out im the sooper swagest Hangin out on agent coopers fap list Can i get a lil dip a lil dip nah gimme scoop of that shit Old timey strongman alley oopin that bit Im an Anime rapper like a Lupin that spit

Trying to figure out what its worth to me / a good nights sleep versus one with emergencies /a life full of uncertainties or at least one where i dont have to keep skirtin these / letters that keep coming from the galactic government / oh would that i could just hop in a spaceship that was hoverin / Over a quagmire thats covered in / my anxieties of actually smothering/ anyone with the audacity to even consider loving me/ half a dozen schemes later im still suffering under the pretense of discovering the way the air feels whens its thundering / now her heart steals when its plundering / how your body reels when its under these / ursine coverings / my love a forest and you’re lumbering a beast ascending / it beats pretending / i dont need some mending / i know its these endings / i hope keep depending / the notes we are bending / are so freaking trending / im overextending / yet low key transcending /the woes were befriending / to show off our spending / but no more depending / on old words for fending / off cold war contendings / we soldier these ten speeds / to hold our impending / fox moulder defending / bipolar suspendings

Wake up depressed at my lack of competition dreams have me despondent wishing yall were more than some mole men underlings its got me left wondering how i ended up so sundering every bet im covering. I am to rap what dan harmon is to st st st stuttering i can hear you muttering under yr breath this kids as soft as brunch and what more than cookies can they crunch damn? But honestly i have a hunch fam, our battle would be over in one... punch... Mannnnnn So john cena often found betwixt the rock and a hard place i changed the game like a an abandoned factory remixed into an art space Livin through these dark days, the living proof of smart greys, down avenues and parkways we'll happen soon or part ways afternoon in the park plays, verbose as some Arthur C Clarke sprays more latinum that the place where quark pays were just black holes so embrace this stark gaze Tell me where your heart stays let me bask in your star rays

Lets light one up for my main man lieutenant broccoli Smoke too much my blood greener than the great ambassador spock's be Yall sound like one of those no names who cant hang spittin on a 'pac beat Try all they want but im afraid they can never stop me Our love is an au like iroh and zuko slinging coffee We dragonfire chai boo me and you are such hot teas You can hear us coming just listen for the phaser shots ring That galaxy class j lets blaze her unstopping Im a roboscientist and yall some battlebotmemes Im so hungry im having those tater tot dreams This right here is the kinda style that you simply can not teach adventure calling abbs you're so hank and not dean The smell of your hair is so goddamned intoxicating Wish i could be there in your room and not waiting On some magic somewhere to keep our love from fading Its certainly fair to assume theres a timeline with us not dating id be the mayor of gloom with a heart constantly breaking But for now beware moon this one has all the makings Of an otp more legendary than that of zelda and link Hope to be your incendiary, the spirits in your drink I met a boy and his name is Russell but way more like brando than brand a wayward lamb yall dont even understand tho find a sexier man no not even possible got me searchin hospital transplant rooms for a heart ill soon need to replace the one he stole from me im hummin jodeci just floored by the fact that he even noticed me from a silly little profile pic on okc but just like blossom's brother joey im screamin whoaaaaaa is me, why cant you be holding me? why are you so far away from me? why am i swimming in lakes when you're so close to the sea? Aint that the just way it goes, b? Aint that the tortured artist tropes we tell ourselves that this somehow is now how its supposed to be? Of desire you know its these words im never really slow to speak. Im just ms pacman tryin to find a ghost to eat! I could write a sonnet and spit it out onto a mountain goats beat. All my friends can see it on my face ive met a boy whos totes sweet.
