Trial of the Golden Witch - (I'm)mortal lyrics

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
