[Intro]

...I’m thinking about this conceit:

Knowing that there are these string models

Which are addressing these problems

These string models are predicting that other universes could be, could exist


[Verse 1]

Eternally inflated, I spent most of my early career learning to be hated

Journeying to greatness, so it should come as no surprise that I open eyes

Revoke disguise, and blow the minds of your chosen side

Frozen inside, exterior star surface

The only man that’s unafraid to slay a god’s purpose

...My genetic code stores my genius seven fold

While they compare you and your people to a vegetable

...They’ll say my later music was exotic

Ekpyrotic, one of the best who ever messed with logic

Test your knowledge, it’s worthless if you don’t

Learning that you were wrong is perfect when you smoke

Blown pot, destination known not

At home in the the early universe’s cold spot

...Checking my mixes in false vacuums

For lost baboons, if you miss it it’s all bad news


[Interlude]

...Inflation, and inflation in cosmology

These universes consist inflate out of vacuum fluctuations

Umm, I guess makes us think about other possible values of the fundamental constant

And of course that these have so-called “anthropic principles” as well comes in

Why the universe has the constants


[Verse 2]

Gawk at what’s possible

You have to close your eyelids to process the opticals

Progress is optimal, premises to suffer

Are our deeply held truths invented or discovered?

I’m interested in structure

...Rich and complex, the very type predictions inspect

Picture the next, classify existence in sets

...Procreating universes is intimate sex

Grab every book of life skim through the texts

...through the wall

Swear it’s unique cuz you’re involved due to gall

Remain ignorant and we’ll lose it all

Peruse the logs, searching for inconsistencies

Cosmos with similar pasts and different histories

...something amiss the mystery

Unintended, at once vision becomes the symphony

...all the realities are connected

And a loose landscape of the omni is what you’re left with


[Interlude]

So I suppose the multiverse, I mean there’s some interesting controversy

I mean I’d like to think that the multiverse sort of removes god

Which I’m quite happy to push it as much out of the way

I hate the idea of metaphysics coming into physics

So I’m rather attracted onto this scenario

Because it pushes those two things further apart


[Verse 3]

Quilted sets among the inflaton

Whisked along, reducings discographies to a simple song

So many different environments hidden inside of it

To find a bold mission of scientists

The mind screw is that physics seemed to be fine tuned

Something that creationists love to remind you

The nerve to try it without acknowledged observer bias

All because you think some word is righteous

Scaling rap flow within a self replicating fractal

The things that are seen are crazy astral

Unnerving deep ends that I learned to think in

Subverting non fixed physical laws in certain regions

Varied minima values, dimensions to house you

Aspects and features to count through

Fantastic arrangements of compactification

Trapped in the basement, patterns that predate the last iterations

Nothing really relates, so let’s just witness expansion and watch the symmetries break

For entropy’s sake, we slumber upon the beds of wonder

And ponder on how our native reality’s just a set of numbers

...this was always inhomogeneous

But still sacred like the spiral nature of the nautilus

My humble attempt to connect the bases

But they’ll degrade it

And forget all of this is purely speculation


[Outro]

The question is: what’s the mechanism by which the universe gets populated

With lots and lots and lots of different environments

For the mechanism that we’re mostly playing around with now

Is called “eternal inflation”, and basically I’ll tell you what it is

In the following simple way: there’s a landscape

A landscape means an energy landscape

It means a configuration space of some kind

Many many different possibilities

That gives you the possibilities that questions what brought them into reality

The key phrase that cosmologists and physicists

Like myself are thinking about is called “eternal inflation”

And it’s the idea the entire landscape, the entire landscape

Means all the possibilities will get populated

By this bubbling structure which eventually fills up

With essentially every possibility that could be there
