Switch 01:35
Hello again You switch up your game, you switch defence Sisyphus throwing bricks at the fence Been waiting for the leaves to fall since spring commenced I did not have the wherewithal to see you You used to be friends and interact, like, cool Put the team up on my shoulders, rightly, and Do what I intend to do righteously I did not have the wherewithal to see that You used to be friends and now it’s icy Getting so fucking high, It gets dicey The team on my shoulders, society

Atlas 01:50
I’m not ready for real life I’m not for it to be over I’m not ready for living well I’m not, I’m maladjusted I know there’s something before me, and I won’t turn around You just ignore them, and smile, keep looking at the ground No means to answer the question, a response won’t be found The weight of it all, it crushes, it smothers and it drowns I’m not ready for real life I’m not, I’ll come through in the end I’m not ready to give up easy So just close your eyes, and smile, pretend that nothing’s wrong This isn’t real life, it can’t be, life’s short but time is long

Conviction 01:13
When I close my eyes Just one at a time I can see around it on both sides The issue at hand One I understand All too well, but cannot empathize Tunnel vision It lacks conviction One track mind unto a cul de sac Oblique and square Asymptote where the corners never meet But curve in unison Be still, and wait; into myopia, grow Tunnel vision It lacks conviction One track mind unto a cul de sac Oblique and square Asymptote where the corners never meet But curve in unison

Run 04:11
Boy, you better run, better run Boy, you better run, better run Pain comin’ and it won’t stop Pain comin’ and it won’t stop Pain comin’ and it won’t stop Pain comin’ and it won’t stop Run, you can evade, get away for awhile Misrepresented the question as hostile You come on back around past the bones under your yard You can’t help someone who can’t help themselves Pain comin’ and it’s fenced off Pain comin’ and it’s fenced off Pain comin’ and it’s fenced off Pain comin’ and it’s fenced off Drop everything, I’ll reconcile in real time When purgatory means going back to sleep I wake up, I wake up Up again, up again Never down, never down I wake up, I wake up Up again, up again Never down, never down I wake up, I wake up From the dream, from the dream Never doubted, never doubted

Lived Before 01:25
Hold it in your heart Begin to start Holding out on me Baby please Bring it all back on home Concentrate! Bigger than you and me Can’t you see? Always do the best that I can Always unless, only except Always get the best of the life That I lived before in anonymity Always do the best that I can Always unless, only except Always get the best of the life That I lived before, compartmentalized Always do the best that I can Always unless, only except Always get the best of the life That I lived before in anonymity Always do the best that I can Always unless, only except Always get the best of the life That I lived before, compartmentalized Always do the best that I can Always unless, only except Always get the best of the life That I lived before

G.O.A.T. 02:11
The Goat, my home I left in ’13 Increase your price since last we met The Goat, my home I left at 13 Increase your price since last we met

Still Life 01:54
If heaven is a place you want, I hope you get there I don’t have any misconceptions I always swing for the fences, and root for the home team In my still life Proxima’s the place we want, I hope we get there I don’t have any misconceptions Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars On route to Mars

Mono 00:59
On the last day I prostrate The name you gave yourself This one’s not even half done I’m thinkin’ ‘bout the next one Not ready for life or death, the answer is to know Awareness in the moment, elapse time, it passes Make space for others to find their voice as well as mine I was never there at all, it was all just in your mind
