[Verse 1: Slug]

I tighten up my laces and focus on my breathin'

It's like I'm meditating, I'm just floating on the ceilin'

But once I felt the introduction of the sequence

The energy remembers me, it welcomes me, it squeezes

Gotta ease the mind of any kind of grievance

Unless it motivates to help me try to find the reasons

Otherwise potentially could trap you, now you sealed in

And ain't no traffic happening if we don't make the wheels spin

Did my stretches before I started reachin'

Got out of my feelings so I could process my healin'

I was raised in a village of Vikings and thieves

Then I'm still most ill when I'm rhymin' and stealin'

There's no pitch to miss when you've missed a few seasons

I've missed museums like I've missed New Zealand

I'm freezing, still getting little to no sleep

But still got dreams to follow, still schemin'

[Verse 2: Aesop Rock]

Red flags, red flags, run the whole red bag

Loose screw, I do run run through the hell half

Cast spells that spell death for smelt rats

The well checkered Past smell of cigarette ash

Green mold, week old coffee on the treasure map

Charred terra with no available medevac

I spark terror in the heart of any paragon

Say cheese, half a Duane Reed in my carry on

Hit the party, part spirit-from-the-pantheon

His Camry drawin' crop circles on your fancy lawn

That handle Like a wooden man-o-war ran ashore

Sure as you mother fuckers are candy corn, whammy

I play as a purveyor Of the good stuff

Who’s what, Sugar Hill Or sugar pills, choose one

Scuffed shoes, one man, earth, moon, sun

Zodiac zoo moving through his goose bumps

[Verse 3: Sa-Roc]

I heard a lot of critics wanna leave my name out

Of the best runnin', but I'll never take the same route

Twice and they can't figure out my patterns or routine

I just might be Jackie Joyner, makin' laps around your team

But my tactics are extreme

God incarnate and give 'em hell for the hobby of it

Think you measure up to this degree of [?]

Future matriarch, drop a bar and elevate the art

You lookin' for quality? I'm like Abu Dhabi, I got you covered

A work in progress, but every project liable to finish you

Diabolic had to get, but pious in the interview

Any one of my lines is up for the days

Of hip hop quotable [?] we got a [?] is plentiful

Resources abundant, keep that pressure on the [?]

G-force can be blackin' out and on every track I bury ma

Character I steady but characteristics that we

Pale to go low shop of horrors too apart to carry them

[?] off the platter I'm dispensing this medicine

Carrying a light is a hand of all you Edisons

I start more than 2020 with a loud

'Cause I'm more than just a visionary my insight is great character

(Thank you) Got my talons gripped on the rhythm

And I bounce every track that I devour I spit out for

My jawline, I don't hold my tongue, I stole my drum

And when I stopped them I get busy then I douse them

Went from broke to baroque, every jewel's gaudy

And the glow sun-kissed character is too godly

Throw a band of heavy metals on my fingers Crüe Mötley

'bout to wrap my hands around what I am overdue shortly
