Wise up Songtext

von Aesop Rock

[now hear this]

(it's big aesop rock)

[now hear this]

Metro-politan grab-bag apocalypse
Maggot patcher swallowing the traps baddest columnist
Big fish and tiger soul anonymous allegory and pulse
Held together by a beach bucket of bolts
I'm here to bleach nascar lust and touch false allegations
Where the war against dem pagans claims the same corner stone pavement (pavement)
Silence and the needle pin hybrid
Fortue this reflecting pool to school you of my underlying bias
Now if
I polish of the poison with a siph
I know my orphanage massive will help you lift my cascet
But a drip of this be-positive and ominous last-cackle
Bury me beneath the chery tree and run for the castle

(i'm one propaganda)
I'm one propaganda speech ahead of televised beckonized life cyclers
Du geek do stop at the decipher
We cross-section a vision every genius dreams
Something i've seen with
Sink-a-pain and simultaneous land-speeder achievement (fresh/drench?)
Drenched! river-dance your way through bed and breakfest
Blemished pre-determined dirty destiny checklist (but first check this)
Well i was born upon a swiftly tilting gallion circeling sloppy sudo stick baddick pitty-me sound system servers (oh god)
We the dicky dawn left handed scribbles of god approached gruesom by drunk buddy systems' husoums
One attack sternum turn to vaporize a minor/monitor (c'mon)
The second intern circled to confirm the fertilizer

And i'm not one of a small tribe camped in a rubber stamp facility
With best friends like utility who needs these instabilities (of mind)

You wanna hold that grudge that's fine
In fact let's both hold grudges just to see who's stubborn and who butches

Well i'm the stubbornest bastard this side of 4 dimenshunz (right channel)
And i'm here to build this p/wicked fence around your bridge lenses (left channel)

And i've never known a potion as potent as zen to mend a broken friendship
I'm saying don't get defensive

(now hear this)

Wise up
Rise up
Size em up
Line em up against the wall
It goes one more crawl wise up (run walk crawl wise up)

Wise up
Rise up
Size em up
Line em up against the wall
It goes run walk crawl wise up

Wise up
Rise up
Size em up
Line em up against the wall
It goes run walk crawl wise up

I barely know myself, man
While you barely know yourself
But i don't claim to know yourself
You claim to know myself
X3
And i heard you know where i am

And i hear you recognize the jeopardy
Finally
Shepherd me
Honoring the touch of pure peasantry i've been harbouring presently
Tough as nails, tough enough to sail through broken ballets
With a pinch of foul demeanor inching forward through your outlets (fuck that)
Fuck that i crease burden incredible NOW! couldn't even offer concept minimum wage let alone benefit grace (wait wait wait, let all paper dolls line up in sized order to gaze an amazement upon a short views getting shorter (getting shorter))
Basic upheaval lazed with logical absurdities (c'mon)
Stolen promise lacking witness to the burglary
I'm sharp
See yesterday i've seen upon the target-phase your bargain base with dream attached by thumbtax so i arched
Boggie bulls-eye upon that dim excuse for group effort triple thin oxidized box cutter law slam eco system drip it on my person
You see my version of ruler don't include underlinked stomache through yellow pages for a future

Today i strike a match at death tragedy
Tomorrow humankinds logic pistons crash and burn
The next day procreation becomes annual formality
I guess it's once a kid always a kid, it's just some kids will never learn

I pack my bags and steadily trudge out the door office
Secure my legacy in threatened water blizzards
I couldn't feed the masses with four fishes (left channel)
Yeah but i can force-feed em wishes (right channel)
And i'd rather be hungry with desires then floated entire
Low (entirely) it goes keen cohorts (cohorts) condense at high noon to force every rattlesnake to beat a dead horse (horse)
Aesop rock for you a disfunctional grief citizen of course
I'm headstrong, but even stronger in support
Man i've been there done did this and that (oaight?)
I've been the engine all the way down to the railroad spike
It isn't pretty (both channels, echoing) walked in sober, staggered out dizzy

Take this lesson as a key to that life mistery

(now hear this)
Wise up rise up size em up line em up against the wall
It goes run walk crawl wize up
Wise up rise up size em up line em up against the wall
It goes run walk crawl wize up
Wise up rise up size em up line em up against the wall
It goes run walk crawl

Huhm
Big aesop rock
Peace)
