"Evolution" lyrics
Aesop Rock & Homeboy Sandman Lyrics
I'm vigilant and aware
Of due dates for book reports and thoughts that shouldn't be there
Balanced on the butt of the knife
Yo, I'm different, I try not to limp in front of my wife
I come to spread the wonderful news
Up the stakes and face uncomfortable truths
I be arguing whole rooms
That's alright, I hold the floor
Dropping jewels and breaking rules
I think that's what those are for
I'm content during the bomb threat
And known to keep it on sched
Right from the onset
People ask me how I found my voice
From on a wire and under fire
I ain't really have a choice
Professionals know who to call
Hey, yo, I do this for the good of all
Regardless of the credit I'll be busy making edits till I'm dead and gone
Get involved
My slang change
I had good days and bad days
Like Bruce Banner and gamma rays
Tunafish and Mayonnaise
Hey, my slang change
I have good days and bad days
I roll out to meet you halfway
Build a neural pathway
Where the olive trees flourish
And a branch might expand across an aisle to encourage
Another might shrink away, mercy isn't perfect
It nurses what it nurses, but the rest is sure to surface
At will, adamantly practicing the lost art
Of small talking with his community at the dog park
What kinda dog is that? And oh, yeah, this weather sucks
And oh, yeah, I'm actually jettisoning some heavy stuff, right now
Then you spit your life whole story out
Too much information from the stranger with the Horse's mouth
Nobody here invited a horse
I had to go and make it awkward just to quiet the chorus
And I get that it defy the decorum
But if I center the spirit, the bigger picture is a light in the forest
For more people to come forward to and light their cigars
I was born in New York, I'll retire in the stars, yeah
My slang change
I had good days and bad days
Like Bruce Banner and gamma rays
Tunafish and Mayonnaise
Hey, my slang change
I have good days and bad days
I roll out to meet you halfway
Build a neural pathway
No, really
I read tea leaves and breath freely
I don't need me no machine to lie detect
You can catch me slide in on the sly without a side effect
It's not FX, it's the real deal
I come here to really feast, tell em how you really feel
Just digging in my cupboards I discover a new color on the color wheel
Folk yelling, run, run
Knowing I could run like, light speed plus one is funny
The always everywhere but never anywhere
Whole time stolen diamonds home inside the teddy bear
Any anxieties, fine so far
Though I tend to go from zero to might throw a car, quickly
Nothing says open arms
Quite like an invite to the ministry of no tomorrows
My slang change
I had good days and bad days
Like Bruce Banner and gamma rays
Tunafish and Mayonnaise
Hey, my slang change
I have good days and bad days
I roll out to meet you halfway
Build a neural pathway
Of due dates for book reports and thoughts that shouldn't be there
Balanced on the butt of the knife
Yo, I'm different, I try not to limp in front of my wife
I come to spread the wonderful news
Up the stakes and face uncomfortable truths
