Bent Life Lyrics - Singles - 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}() 

it goes thieves, bandits, low lives, scum 

punks that buckle under the rumple 

of my drum 

steadily searching for something new under the sun 

but its stagnant, act of development 

first of madness 

Thieves, bandits, low lives, scum 

punks that buckle under the rumple 

of my drum

steadily searching for something new under the sun 

but its hurtin, act of development 

first diversion 

{c-rayz walz} 

a new universe in ancient, so i stay patient 

in a gravel 

pit, travelin thoughts and ravelin, pacing 

embracing light of america, and found a shade 

of darkness (underground) 

the traincar used to be my apartment 

sick of people rushin in 

the doors before i get out 

conductors closing the doors before i get in, i shout 

'the biz is 

coming, the biz is coming!'? 

don't get worried now (we've been in a cold world!) 

we just getting 

flurries now? 

{aesop rock} 

yeah, its like sloooowww dooowwwn, 

you're movin much to fast 

to bust through the finale fashioned glass 

its delicate demeanor and i teach you how to hang 

but 

we like 1970 something 20 clicks outside your name (tear obedience) 

i apologize for the faulty 

academics 

but they placed us in a miserable stasis 

i let bygones be bygones 

but tryin to 

see eye to eye with the face lift 

just aint working the way the manual paints it 

see i soak in 

a blue note factory 

while most cats hassle bandits lamping (?) solo 

and when the last red 

brick topples over the earth 

to intercept your crooked little mess 

i can be found in a social 

coma directly to your left 

engaged in a conversation, a marvel with my breath 

regarding 

how to document the shady baby steps 

i bounce checks like a modern 

sleep with one eye open 

while the other two drift 

together specimens from the promise land 

this for the thinkers 

this 

for the erchants allergic to they own stingers 

this for the absurd verdict linkers 

this 

for that cat at my shows that's always got prophetic opinions 

but cant remember where his 

drink is 

i'm wallowing, shrugging i'm plugging your corporation 

cause we alley cats addicted 

to the sickly warped sensation 

answer this: when all that's said and done 

are you a memorable 

troop or just a lab rat on the run 

choose one
