Sisyphus II

Ibrahim

I′ve been warpin through the fourth dimension,
With no more to explore left
Toured each wormhole and vortex on my quest to just thwart deathA thousand ways to die, be it cardiac or cancer
I travel time in hopes that some forgotten god will have the answer

I've traversed the valley of death′s shadow searchin for Baphomet
In caverns where Apollo slept, I'm trackin down Nyarlathotep
Read some chapters next to blasphemous statues from magic texts
Only two things are certain and I ain't paid my taxes yet

I′ve planned to see a glimpse of Panacea to bewitch her
Intoxicatin mixtures of Rolling Rock and youth elixir
Each time I might′ve died, I rewind the time five days
Tryna skirt my demise and escape my divine fate

Encased in ancient Cenozoic ice - twice - but I melted
The helmet of Hades I sheltered myself in's just a relic
Stopped by Mephistopheles - got lost in his home
Called up Yamaraja′s phone and made philosopher's stones

On a first name basis with Chernabog, I′ve turned the clock
And urged Pandora to burn the box but it didn't work so hot
Got an ankh in my pocket, an ouroboros tattoo
Hoarded horcruxes, and I′ve sipped primordial soup

Implored the Four Horsemen to not be the mortal I was prior
Sought out Orpheus but unfortunately just found a lyre
Did business with shinigami, and still continue clueless
Though I've interviewed Methuselah, listened to Anubis
And been to every festival of death collecting talismans
I've bribed Azrael to forget me and questioned Lazarus
Got sacrilegious amulets and bracelets next to
Chained up phoenixes I ensared and experiment on in my basement

And at this rate I fear I′ve tried to find a cure in vain
Every year I age will disappear in time like tears in rain
But I′ve been here and there and I'll endure until my quest′s complete
And desperately resist destiny as long as there's breath in me

Sisyphus
Steady rolling boulders up the summit
Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em plummet
Yes I′m sisyphus
Static balance pebbles on the brink
Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em sink

Sisyphus
Steady rolling boulders up the summit
Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em plummet
Yes I'm sisyphus
Static balance pebbles on the brink
Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em sink
