MUSES

Chorus

Invoke the muses, I will

Make the music I feel

Win or lose it, I’m still calling

I’m calling their names

Verse 1

I’m like a troubadour. 'Cause even Jesus spoke in metaphors

I’m bringing things to the culture that they’re not ready for

Be assured, my master plan’s a step ahead of yours

Jared Leto, This is War, the card count’s fifty-four, with Jokers

Like Joaquín, I’m rising like a Phoenix now

Keep your bullshit opinions, 'cause I don’t need ‘em now

Even now, my net worth is something I won’t speak about

Could flex on my success, but I don’t even need the clout

Hear me out, ahead of time like the Prime Mover

Entrepreneur, they gon’ watch my maneuver

Singer-songwriter, producer, superman and Lex Luther

One man band. Now I’ve been planning for the future, man

Onto newer frontiers, blood sweat and tears

Reaping what I’ve sown, but I’ll be sowing seeds for eighty years

I face fear, I’m on display like a souvenir

Space pioneer, now watch me shooting through the stratosphere

Verse 2

I was born heavy, yeah I’m war ready

From Queens to the Queen City like the mercury they call Freddie

It’s all petty when they said my thoughts were all pennies

I played the game, take the fame, I made it already

Feed my family with this music, do you understand me

Invoke the muses, I’m just using all the tools they hand me

Stretch my hammy, run the race but never chase the grammy

Don’t bet your life on validation they gon’ up the ante

You’ll lay awake without a nuanced take

These days are crazy, man, but you want sane

A new John Wayne. The grit to spit what you won’t say

Life is pain. I'm Abel now, but you want Cain. So listen

Embrace the weight of the world to watch it take off

You’re still human, ain’t no solutions only trade offs

Wield the sword. To stay soft won’t pay off

If motion isn’t chosen then you’ll never shake the snakes off
