lyrics

Fake it til you make it up as you go along.
I'm bad at doing it but living pretty adequate with songs.
The map is lost
and so I've had to navigate a lot.
Among the catalogues,
that cackle at me cause
I haven't bought justification yet.
I take a breath to damage all the stocks.
Before the petty but inevitable battle with the clock.
Self knowledge.
Hold a mirror to a mirror
then watch.
Nothing happens,
and you realize that don't happen a lot.
If I can't fly,
work on getting gravity to stop.
If I was wise,
maybe I would listen when I talk.
While I'm alive
I do my best to think outside the box.
Because I'm in the underground,
But as literal as plots.
Not your typical.
It isn't cool to mimic you or ridicule.
I dig myself a deeper hole.
A habitat that's livable is integral.
I'm somehow simultaneously cynical
and shocked.
I do wanna believe
even if I just cannot.
I'm telling you about it
cause I'm getting it on lock.
Into a verse I can repeat
even if I did feel better
and forgot.
Holding firm to what I feel is right,
despair, like a rock.
You can do that for so long
and then you're gone like a fox.
And it's not all that impressive
just impressions of your block.
Said it held you up and back
and everywhere but what you sought.
So I'm tellin everybody I'm on top
til it's true,
stay tuned.

(EleMental)

Wake up put my cool face on and
walk out to the blue jay's song then
go to work til the new day's gone and
I get to do it over like woop, I'm awesome.
Another Tuesday lost.
Sink another hour in the Ubisoft.
New tie on, gotta start my way
to my full-time job
with the part-time pay.
Hard to say what it really is.
Part ashamed of my willingness.
To have a part to play
but can't escape cause
rent don't give a shit about my feelings.
If I could just pretend to be
what you wanna see
then eventually
I could fall asleep.
But I guess I'll be
stuck perpetually.
Til the death of me.
Til it's all a dream

(Chorus)
(Dug)

It takes (takes, takes, takes)
time
to stay
in line.
(Where am I?)
It takes (takes, takes, takes)
time
to wait
for signs.
(Why though?)
It takes (takes, takes, takes)
a spine
to make
your mind
up.

(HT)

We're all born to die
or form a line.
You're lucky if you're patient
you'll make it to 45.
A borderline morbid mind
with outrageous claims.
But these clouds came to drain.
I don't downplay the pain.
I'm a fake intellectual.
And I'm really good at tetherball.
I'm exceptional.
And several other statements
that make you think I'm professional.
But everything I say is a lie.
I'm lying right now.
It's paradoxical
and improbable
that you'll find out.
Haven't cleared the cobwebs.
Not yet.
Also haven't bought meds
that make me talk less.
It's a process.
I'm stand-offish.
I'm gonna change it up
to keep the fans honest.
They can't watch this,
it's artist development.
I'm an industry plant,
not part of what's relevant.
The music scene is delicate.
These songs are posturing.
But I'm an artist,
the hardest thing to do
is not to sing.

(Magefist)

Stayin tuned in,
channeling my movements.
Tweak another frequency.
Compete it with the blueprint.
Listen,
isn't
this shit
vicious.
Stuck inside these cycles
with no limits, limits.
Look a fire in it's face,
you a liar and a fake.
Or a higher wired mind
that aspires to be great.
And what difference does it make?
When you're stuck inside a prison
in a visionary state.
Wide awake and I see shit clearly.
Never was afraid to become
what the mirror sees.
Sincerely,
yours from the heart.
I hear things that I morph into art.
It all starts with the mark of the beast.
In the dark
with no harness or leash.
But I'm hardly a beacon
or even a teacher.
I'm here to bring bars
as a part of a feature.

(Chorus)
