And Now Doth Time Waste Me

from Lost Hours by Jake the Adversary

lyrics

I’m seeing by the light of other days,
I’m trying now to write another page
Or to light another flame in the bellows
People walk up at my job and saying hey,
I say hello, then they squint their eyes and ask if I’m okay

I’ll trade lyrics for concepts, I’m not all here at the onset
I’m not really a profit-able portfolio option
More Malvolio often getting booted off of the proud path
Less Hennessy more Nephele - fuck it, dude, I like cloud rap

I broke my car outside a town named Accident
Outre rapping writing outtake passages
Keep on, better actions appear to me
Delete songs, retroactive conspiracy
Then I’m passing through judges and find terminus
Tick tock travel and trucking in time turbulence (())

And dipshits ain’t charted this
Can’t see me like they didn’t flip a marker switch
Artist in his brain knew no sign of caution, he’s
Part of every wave - New, No, Sine or Gaussian
Started in the game - you won’t find he’s nauseous but
Pardon all the tapes - he’s too blind to toss em (())

Unlikely to drop what he sang upon
More likely for slop to invade his songs
And to get small pockets of hangers-on
Sad flow, lost lockets and anger probs
Hovering at average but banging on
For summoning a dragon - Clanger mom

And every couple years I get a message from the universe
Like wash behind your ears and resurrect the dead on Jupiter
And all the things that you internalize are worse than without
We’ll see who uses hands first, make a firsthand account

It’s cliche to say that I’m a villain on mics, but I’m
Riding in the Kuiper and chilling on Tyche
I write until I snap the pen, 1AM to 1AM and back again
Do I sleep? often that depends
Until the end of time, I’ll be spilling the blood to upraise
And I’ll smack the ones who back in the head for a month of Sundays - this one fades
