[lyrics: Emcee Hype]
Take a long enough timeline and everything you take or took apart
Make a fine line, you can pick or pull it apart
Just pick a digit out of fickle-ridden idiots
A tricky tele-video, a picture of the start like
Bound and he pound-for-pound a posh sentiment
Venom that he only kept around for his enemies
Wait a minute, time on a line gets boring
Look right, look left, wait, which way's forward?
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
Sing a song for the settlement of civilized civilians
Take another ticket to k** them
Riddled with a naggin em negative hard question
Vagabond humanity vanity's wrong lesson
Drink for the brink of humanity's children
Down the wrong tube til you choke and k** them
Poke pop pills with a pocket full of bills
On a long enough timeline and life goes nil like
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
[hook: Emcee Hype, Party.pica**o & Gumshu]
Now i got a monkey on my back
And a chip on my shoulder
A mind full of facts
And a lie to uphold them
We all evolved to the modern age
Just to finally figure out
We've been crawling the wrong way
Are we evolving outward, upward?
Because I'm starting to eliminate the answer in the cupboard theory
Dancer in the mud, the dreary canceristic sludge
The fear the answer is what isn't now, the answer is what was
Day-trippin the minute we lost physical
Limit the perimeter, damage has gone critical
Lost in the trees in the middle of the forest
Who lost the truth when they stopped moving towards it
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
[hook]
Maybe-
We started at the truth and evolved away
Maybe the product is the proof like we used to say
Now i don't wanna run this whole place into the ground
But captain, turn this spaceship around!
And what a real kind gesture
I messed with the gauge and i got a conjecture
A lecture, let me just flip the factor and ask:
What happens if we're moving backwards?
Are we evolving then? if it can't be solved with a sword or pen?
Poor them. who? (who?) all of us, stranded
Whole damn family, all of us damned
It's all just dandy, down with the ship and the captain
Worse case just can't be happening
Just keep clapping, don't hold the applause
He evolved to a man, then he's thrown to the dogs
Take a long enough timeline and everything you take or took is now mine
I'ma take your place in the chow line
Power-lines blinking and linking the whole city up
American gods who got chariots, giddy-up!
Little itty-bitty worker ants all building
Towers to the same yellow sun that'll k** them
Fill them with purpose, a circus for the worthless
Dust-to-dust left with a tongue full of curses
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
Sing a song for the planned anarchy
Village of the damned with a scanner darkly
I can't hardly figure it out, the damn message
Wrote it, read it, shredded it, better to keep guessing
It's back to the pond and primordial soup
Since the damn son of man started playing with nukes
So I'ma take a breath and be done with my last words:
Dear god, we all evolved backwards
