[Intro: Aesop Rock & Vast Aire]

Every little step we take breaks the dreams

Of a war pig itching to re-stitch the seams

Every little step we take breaks the dreams

Of a war pig itching to re-stitch the seams

(Namsayin, when I walk, I wanna break concrete!)

Every little step we take breaks the dreams

Of a war pig itching to re-stitch the seams

Every little step we take breaks the dreams

Of a war pig itching to re-stitch the seams

[Verse 1: Vast Aire]

Ox will spit some shit that'll reflect off the mirror

My light beams are mad bright, they stay clever

Yo, challenge an Ox member, get a valve severed

Found your body in the desert (Scavenger's dessert)

Yeah yeah I rap tight like Saran

Plus enter battles talkin shit like "Look mom, no hands"

I'm tired of cats tryin to sum me

You can't add that far yet, that counting is far fetched

I treat MC like K-9s

Throwin words at they face to see if they bite when they catch

I told you my poetry sponsors Gillette

Now you standing there wit razors in your head like barrettes

Man, if the mic had ass cheeks

The sticker in my hand would say priority seating

And man, I don't know if it was me or you

But your girl was on my dick like she was teethin'

You play the role, I'll play the poppy seed on top of you

The godspeed is actual, that doesn't mean I act usual

One of the first MC's to give the crowd full attention

Cuz you need love and affection

[Hook: Aesop Rock & Vast Aire]

If we could absorb every star in the sky

We noticed some shine brighter than others, you wonder why

It's the simple things in life that turn the peasants into leaders

And we know the differences between the walkers and the sleepers

Man if we could absorb every star in the sky

We noticed some shine brighter than others, you wonder why

It's the simple things in life that turn the peasants into leaders

And we know the differences between the walkers and the sleepers

[Verse 2: Aesop Rock]

I boogie with picketer vision, carbon based stickler

City piss aroma, therapy coma, clone sitter

Itching to pigeonhole villain soul magnet

Feelers activate

Passion ate the germ, and the book met the worm

I hold a book of matches captive to flash if

The sunbeams flatline

Via thick fatigue episodes, brewed in batches

The flirt of cursed perks nursed broken skeleton patches

One muddy veteran collapsed the untapped resource center

Housing style pageants

My little limbs lasso katydid wings

While mankind's babysteps break dirt and demon

I know a crossbreed strung well in the key of

Mass times weight times tamed semantics

Encompassing that which splits lips but never supplied the bandage

To hell with plastic, we edit splendid

Tap it on the shoulder, grab it, tag it, apprehend it

Lend it to the devil to befriend it, wrench it back, mend it again

It still never renders suspended 'bove finicky picket fences

Now every droid dreams to manufacture hearts

Start with cadaver parts and a blueprint

He followed the precedent set by war pigs of a yesteryear

Let the tears braid

And skip a stone over the reservoir to shake the whole charade

Gold-plated tomb or spittoon

I couldn't see

I fell asleep holding an Appleseed, woke up holding a tree

The only bridge I ever burned along this legacy I dance

Was the one that linked the cities of Prosperity and Chance

[Hook: Aesop Rock & Vast Aire]

If we could absorb every star in the sky

We noticed some shine brighter than others, you wonder why

It's the simple things in life that turn the peasants into leaders

And we know the differences between the walkers and the sleepers

If we could absorb every last star in the sky

We noticed some shine brighter than others, you wonder why

It's the simple things in life that turn the peasants into leaders

And we know the differences between the walkers and the sleepers
