WASTELAND
Someone tell me when it’s over
Existential supernova
It’s when a star explodes and it blows your mind
Like a limo ride and Bill Greer’s the chauffeur
Bonnie Tyler said it, she wasn’t wrong
I don’t know where all the good men have gone
‘Cause good God, these gods left and all that’s left are these
Men without their chests, out making a mess in this
Barren wasteland, damn
You don’t know the half of it
I won’t ever trust a prince or a chariot
That’s deeper than the bourgeoisie and proletariat
I’m trying to craft the man in me like Stradivarius
But right now the path I see is too precarious
My role models lost at sea, I try to manage it
Heavy is the crown, I don’t know if I can I carry it
Only God knows
Only God knows
It’s half-men troubles that break the edifice
A stock bubble from artificial intelligence
Its too subtle for some that need the evidence
I feel it under my feet, and hear the resonance
Buried underneath quicksand and sediment’s
A sentiment of self-centeredness, y’all don’t get it yet
And everybody thinking that “this mans a gentleman”
I’ve seen the end of this. Don’t get me wrong I’m not a
Pessimist. I mourn the loss of my innocence
Desolate. I bear the cross of the witnesses
Genesis. I saw the fall, it was imminent
Now how the hell do we begin again?
I’m not the infinite, I’m just an instrument to implement
I can only pray I pass down the regiment
I can only tell my sons to be better men
Daedalus. I’ll give 'em wings like a pegasus
