New Peaks
Ever been up all night?
Eat a couple triangles then sunbathed in the dawn light?
Sun is blazing so bright
There's water falling from my eyes just like I'm Lloyd Wright
Wright bros I'm taking flight
Gonna get to the point where if you look down you will see a kite
Day to day feels pretty slight when matched up to these thrilling heights
Man I hope I'll be alright cause I'm going up up up up up
Like my lungs are full of helium
Thousand colours and they're shifting like chameleons
Sun blazing in the sky man I'm feeling good
To my amazement, feels like open-eyed dreaming would
Feels like open-eyed dreaming would
Red, orange, yellow, green my pinky's gleaming, look
Water's blue and indigo, in awe of the streaming brook
I can remember every shape and colour we mistook
Catch me with a dreamy look
Hey bro, you alright? cause from your face you're seeming pretty shook
A quick introduction from a mutual friend is all it took
Is it impolite to say you're pretty close to being hooked?
Yeah you've been up all night
Lying, eyes wide at 8am in the morning light
You've been saying you're like Virgil cause you're off white
But you're still getting higher than Van Dijk
Ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, wait
Ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok
Ok, I'm ready for a new ride
Now I'm ready for a speed bump
Yeah that's my modus operandi
Stop-start 'till I feel pumped
Ok, I'm waiting 'till it hits me
Hey bro please tell me when it hits you
Yeah that's my modus operandi
Analyze when the feeling's new
Fingers crossed that the vibes right
Cause I'm ready for a new ride
(Ever been up all night?)
(Feel's like open-eyed dreaming would)
(Sun's blazing so bright)
(I sunbathed in the dawn)
How you gonna make art without daffodils?
I fucked with the style but it's slapping still
It's springtime for my music and my rapping skills
Already making masterpieces, why are you napping still?
Try to record what I'm imagining
Inspiration comes from scavenging
And learning from the wrangling
Sometimes gripping others maddening
When I'm trying to understand what acid is
And capture it just like Travis is (It's lit!)
But do it my own way just like Stanley did
Like Kubrick maybe I'll cross the Atlantic
And start artistic avalanches
In two disciplines just like Farah did (I'm multifaceted)
If we're talking Mo I wanna break all the records like Salah did
And do it with style yeah just like Marilyn (Blonde bombshell, bitch)
And man I'm just grateful that I don't have to hide what Alan hid
Cause I'd wither in that comparison
Who cares about whose talented?
There's bigger problems I'm tackling
Am I inspired or am I babbling?
Am I astute or am I rambling?
Winning fans is hard as canvassing
Don't tell me this is embarrassing (Don't tell me shit)
You're the one who is embarrassing
Suck my fucking dick
This is high art
This is high art
If you see what I mean when I say high art
Am I smart or am I arrogant?
That question's paramount
Ever been up all night?
Eat a couple triangles then collapsed under dappled light?
Man I don't feel quite right
Cause the water's rising and I'm stranded like it's high tide
NASA rocket to the fucking moon
Going up up like a thousand helium balloons
Cellophane colours in the warm light of the afternoon
And cyan twilights every fortnight in a sunny June
But man I feel kind of blue
I'm not talking Miles or clear skies I'm talking Waterloo
I'm talking eyes open wide and all I see is gloom
While my thoughts are racing like they're fucking spermatozoons
Ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, wait
Ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok
Ok I'm ready for some new peaks
I'll climb K2 in one week
Yeah that's my modus operandi
Stay silent let the actions speak
What are you seeing with your mind's eye?
Bro if you're peaking I'm on standby
Yeah that's my modus operandi
In a trance but always nearby
And all the plants looking like bonsai
And all the trees look like they've got eyes
Sometimes I'm awed sometimes I'm horrified
But please just drench me in that dawn light
Yeah I've been up all night
Think I'm gonna need a cry just like I'm Lloyd Wright
It's my lust for the blue skies
That guides every fortnight in hot July
I'm reaching new peaks
I want a new peak
K2 in one week
I'm reaching new peaks
I'm reaching new peaks
I'm reaching new peaks
I'm reaching new peaks
I've reached a new peak
Eat a couple triangles then sunbathed in the dawn light?
Sun is blazing so bright
