Ikaros

I still did it for the vine all twenty-twenty (I ain't gon' do it)
'Cause my hips don't lie and my millions are pending
Heliocentric metaphor for my ascension
I ain't tryna melt my wings
But I'm tryna get a sweat in
My depression superpower?
Could chug it like a freshman
I always been the head of shit
Ain't never been a henchman
Pay attention
These ain't subs- these mentions
Just censoring names for your safety and protection
It used to be a question
Am I wack, or are they jealous?
Now according to projections
My kid will be an heiress
For the fame, lose the freedom
Black chattel chasing Polaris
Disgusted by my history and I can't even clear it
I had a crush on Haku
So I made fun of the queer kids
Didn't expect you to take
"Go kill yourself," so serious
I could say "I'm sorry"
Though, forgiveness ain't a given (My bad)
But I'ma take your sorrows
And then flip them to a million
For instilling goodwill and
Start an era of good feelings
Feed the masses, fight the system
Buy some bookbags for the children
Biggest high school in New York
Got like two Dominicans
(But there's no racial bias 'cause we test for our admissions)
Internalized capitalism, made riches my ambition
Now I'm ten toes down 'cause
I can't sit on a nimbus
Raven gave up Africa
But we still got a vision
If you ain't gon' be part of it
At least you get to witness

Built a labyrinth of my psyche
To keep the beast in
Every year the SAD come back in December
'Tis the season
A heathen reaching for a reason
To keep breathing
Niggas know me 'bout as well as
The Story of Catcher Freeman
Built a labyrinth of my psyche
To keep the beast in
Every year the SAD come back in December
'Tis the season
A heathen reaching for a reason
To keep breathing
Niggas know me 'bout as well as
The Story of Catcher Freeman

Fry some grasses from Oahu
That Hawaiian rollercoaster
And I'm happiest on acid
But I'm not too shabby sober
Got a shorty by the border
Who invite me over
Put on PBS and watch a little Nova
Pushing all the buttons by mistake
On the remote controller
At it right away
No details- they're kind of gross (Gross! You nasty!)
Neil could wait just another week
Before I'm on the road
Sorry babe, Ant is for the people
You know how it go
Kanye of the East
Spit over beats that I composed
Took an L today
Is not a tweet that I would post
Yuppies takin heat for eating avocado toast
While they calling the police on people
Outside of they homes (That's fucked up)
Fuck twelve- Karl Malone (Actually, she was thirteen)
Divide one united district into
Two, three zones
A consequence of electoral past the post
Check out the polls
He got less votes
Why was he posted up in the Ov'?
What do pride and the summer have in common?
Both function as subversive subjects (Gottem!)
To keep you guessing what would come next
Trick the rap muscle
By keeping the content complex
For hypertrophic hip-hop
There's L, R, A, Start/Select
I remember thinking
"Is niggas even gon' like my songs?"
Now I fuck around, bust out a banger
In 'bout an hour or sumn'
"It be like that sometimes"
That's my indo- my stoner way
Roll a Raw extendo, keep ya head up
Try another day
I ain't too high and mighty
I used to be a reprobate
This rap shit like a diary
Been dying to produce a tape
Something harder than any
Peeping Tom Medusa claimed
I know that y'all don't really care
But thanks for letting me ventilate
Me and big brother are no mates
Turned off automatic updates
Blow big weights, don't show me no eighths
If I die, I accept my fate

Built a labyrinth of my psyche
To keep the beast in
Every year the SAD come back in December
'Tis the season
A heathen reaching for a reason
To keep breathing
Niggas know me 'bout as well as
The Story of Catcher Freeman
Built a labyrinth of my psyche
To keep the beast in
Every year the SAD come back in December
'Tis the season
A heathen reaching for a reason
To keep breathing
Niggas know me 'bout as well as
The Story of Catcher Freeman
