Swan Song
Here I am, 38 years a man, 38 years to become this man
And one day I'll be nothin' but footprints in the sand
And I don't know if I can
Carry on standin' in a land, I'm damned
I keep offerin' you my hand
It took an entire lifespan to understand that
A million mistakes faced with a million billion trillion apologies, no difference makes
You 'n' I are not the same, none of our synapse fire the same
Segregate 'n' ignore the strange, there's too much change
I'm on the last draft of the last page
And it's almost over, time is tickin' out
Now I see the smiles for what they are, they're just crooked mouths
Speakin' empty words from empty heads
They're good at conjurin' nothin' 'n' castin' doubt
Looks like, I'm a have to live this one out
But now my body is failin' 'n' now my mind has begun ailing
And I'm sick of this sickness 'n' all the nightmares I've created
Dreams have faded, replaced with an emptiness that I hate
But in that emptiness there is hate
I remember its taste
I got one goal, that's to crush all those who oppose
Destroy them all with the flow of a dark soul evolved
If I got one flaw, it's that I can't quit on this road
I made my choice, silence my voice, this is all I live for
I'll never stop, until I drop
Until my eyes roll back 'n' my body has begun to rot
I'll stop, when I drop
When my mind gives up 'n' the people have begun to watch
Since 11 never wanted to be normal
Now I'm 19 'n' rap has got a grip on me
Now every bully who pulled me apart
The pieces are collidin' 'n' ignitin' a spark, a fire in this dark heart
My dreams are not comprehended by dreamers
My dream is to have Reuben with a beamin' grin when I rap
Steppin' in force with a wit that can rip so
Takin' it back, breakin' the backs
I'm realignin' the planets so I can hop, skip 'n' jump to Uranus
And kick it, face it, the wordplay's just too far ahead
Seems to be more up 'n' down than a see-saw
This thesis leaves you in pieces, is he 19
Birds 'n' the bees man, I'm breezin' past it
I'm grafted from granite
Honestly the feud between me 'n' my mum, man dammit
A calamity happened to Callum 'n' Fi
400 passed, now I gotta kick my own ass again
Amassed with Matt again
Guess I'm a bastard, time to find the right path again
I got one goal, that's to crush all those who oppose
Destroy them all with the flow of a dark soul evolved
If I got one flaw, it's that I can't quit on this road
I made my choice, silence my voice, this is all I live for
I'll never stop, until I drop
Until my eyes roll back 'n' my body has begun to rot
I'll stop, when I drop
When my mind gives up 'n' the people have begun to watch
And one day I'll be nothin' but footprints in the sand
And I don't know if I can
Carry on standin' in a land, I'm damned
