I would love to save the world, but I know everything dies
We know the cycle never ends, but we continue to try
If I miss the singularity within my life, I'm f**ed
Gettin' cucked by the universe
What if I pull a Sing About Me and get shot by the end of the verse?
The real curse is not knowing
Yet feeling the need for a goal towards which to continue growing
And never slowing even when it hurts
I'm reimbursed for my effort with a fat coin purse
But the years I've burned past I can't reverse
All the hoops I've jumped through to avoid the hearse
Make the thought that I'm wasting my time so much worse
And what's worse than that?
Knowing that I'm dying even as I rap
I get immersed to avoid the facts
Mortality: I just can't admit to that
'cause what's worse than that?
Knowing that I'm dying even as I rap
I get immersed to avoid the facts
Mortality: I just can't admit to that
'cause what could be worse than that?
The final boss of our lives is d**h itself
Fighting temporary threats only barely helps
If we can't pull the ghost from the shell, we won't survive
And we've only got so much time
I put my lime in my coconut so I can chill
Pretending this ain't real, just so I can deal
If the world ends with me, then at least I made it
I'll watch the sky burn from the backyard, faded
