Attention Span

Aesop Rock

[Aesop Rock] 3x

Every little step we take breaks the dreams

Of a warm pig itching to re-stitch the seams



[Vast Aire]

Namsayin, when I walk, I wanna break concrete!



Ox'll spit some shit that'll reflect off the mirror

My light beams are mad bright,

They stay clever

Yo challenge an Ox member,

Get a vow severed

Found your body in the desert (Scavenger's dessert)

Yeah yeah I rap tight like Saran

Plus enter battles talkin shit like

'Look mom, no hands!'

I'm tired of cats tryin to sum me

You can't add that far yet,

That counting is far fetched

I treat MC like canines

Throwin words at they face

To see if they bite when they catch

I told you my poetry sponsors Gillette

Now you standing there

Wit razors in your head like baretts

Man, if the mic had ass cheeks

The sticker in my hand

Would say priority seating

And man, I dunno if it was me or you

But your girl was on my dick like she was teethin

You play the role/roll,

I'll play the poppy seed on top of you

The godspeed is actual,

That doesn't mean I act usual

One of the first MC's to give

The crowd full attention

Cuz you need love and affection



Chorus[Aesop Rock, Vast Aire] 2x

If we could absorb every star in the sky

We noticed some shine brighter than others,

You wonder why

It's the simple things in life

That turn the peasants into leaders

And we know the differences between

The walkers and the sleepers





[Aesop Rock]

I boogie with picket-a-vision,

Carbon based stickler

City piss aroma,

Therapy coma, clone sitter

Itching to pigeon hole villain soul magnet

Feelings activate

Passionate the germ,

And the book met the worm

I hold a book of matches captive to flashin

For some need flatline

Be a thick fatigue episdoe,

Brewed in batches

Flirted curse at perked nurse,

Broken skeleton patches

One muddy veteran collapsed
