Aesop Rock - Float Lyrics

Send "Float" ringtone to your cell

So i heard y'all wanna float...

Yo

This fallen angel could stitch a wing wit a shoestring

Prime directive selects reflective aviation bathed in moodswing

(i'm broke)

I know a walking corpse who'd spit icicle dagger to slit throat

Quicker than you can prove there's four letters in hope ("h - o - p - e")

I paint a portrait for myself

Called life inside retarded shell

(tortured)

Orbiting hell's orchid intrigued but not compelled

I smell a hint of charred child flesh

Sweeping through my quarters

Order one canteen of liquid caffeine

And eclipse the slaughters

Now is you is the villain of my kabuki hologram?

I hobble with hollow hands

(please pin the nozzle)

It's the intent to reinvent dream application

With homage to ancients

But honor modern replacements

Circling now basics

(fresh)

I'm bilbo baggins with stilts tippin' the peatree dish

Beached fish on the shores

Where the feast of wits eats the corpse

Divy the servings and study the traits

That deemed killer breed credible

Now that's a harp of a different color-

Yeah but the song remains identical

I am not a crook

(crook)

I cook the wick at both ends just to blend that element of chance with my

Tight rope leaf

(life)

Sight beyond

I reign where hunger pain got begone

Belong to something civil saint

'cause this rembrandt paints on

And it's a dulled canvas

Lodged in the gut of atlantis

Some present impressive lungs

Some truly learn what a death chant is

I alone personify mankind's collective sulk

As the result of one angry zeus fist blistering cult pulp invoked

Face it

Place it on the shelf next to the portrait mommy gave you

On the day it rained while yall posed by the slave ship anyway

(how sweet)

It rain 'till the levee breaks

My fetus piece is a combine of

Father time and his sweetest concubine

And it saddens me like televised casualties

I'll be hung in the village square in exactly five minutes

(you don't want to miss it)

I've been soaking up my discontent regarding the equation

I'm officially closed for consultation

I float

When everyone around me's busy drowning i float

When everyone around me's busy drowning i float

When everyone around me's busy drowning i float
