Bent Life

Aesop Rock

Aesop Rock}

Yo

I take 10 steps with a bedlamped vision

Study the disorders

we've absorbed inside the village

I understand the plagues and shake hands with my grimace

that remain up in

my face like top to bottom train car feelings

Lets question the ascension

of a broken social icon in various domino affect

I'm blow this hex over the mission

Just to

administer the indoor sucker punch to (?) its pitiful condition



{C-Rayz Walz}

With no

alibi love is used as a guide by the civilized

Some see it as the body heat you feel when you close

your eyes

That's so much of a lie, you can leave your hair dyed and scorch your roots

As the

truth hits your ears begin to cry

'Why Is It Like This!' Why the f**k do I care?

I don't have

the answers, or at least the ones you want to hear

City lights look like bright groups of fire

flies

Many see the truth (the proof) only when the liar dies

Tires screech to a halt, the ground

cries

Spit sparks speak to the streets

The skid marks are replies

Read discussions of what

we rode through entrenched in the vocals]

The hopeless stay hopeful (the toxic fumes choke

you)

As I walk out my door, step into the pollution

(I breathe in the problems) exhale solutions

Physically

the situation's hard to stop

I had a wicked jump shot and sold crack rock on back blocks

Casualties

in this apocalypse (street chronicle)

abnormal abdominals (push-ups phenomenal)

Relaxin

drinking my 6-pack maxing

faxing my thoughts on the satellite, via Donahue (push it)

Table

talk, salt and pepper conversation

Integrated sectors, metropolis and mecca

It's a conspiracy

(you know), I can't lie dukes

Sometimes I feel the rats got a better deal than I do



{Aesop

Rock}(Chorus)

It goes thieves, bandits, low lives, scum

Punks that buckle under the rumple

of my drum

Steadily searching for something new under the sun
