Ego Death

[Intro: Busdriver, Aesop Rock]

Yeah, no, I understand what you're saying, but... is it sexier than torture?

Shah, yeah, Los Angles

Under the cellulite laden thigh of the night

Yeah, oh shoot, lemme see if I can finish this

Okay, lets go, yeah

We can make this better

We can make this better (yeah, oh shoot, let's go)

We can make this better

[Verse 1: Busdriver]

Under the cellulite laden thigh of the night

I slip miniature mantras between my cries and gripes

Jewel-flavored crystals in the red, blue, and white stripes

While crowds throw numbers at me like The Price is Right

And downtime is never met with an overjoyed grin

Cause sleep and death have always been conjoined twins

You'd rather lick the red gills of pop art

Than your cement-filled pock marks

The withering tendrils from my wrought heart

Reach for a Benadryl like it was a lost ark

Cause my average day is for the body of aegis, they're prompting these sieges

We cry to these seniors, living inside of splotchy Adidas

Serving consecutive sentences

My corrective lenses is ruby quartz

Yet my vision ain't worth a jiggling of booty warts

Circumstances trap writers like Kathy Bates

Under a decolorized happy face

So my car ain't covered in candy paint

But still the nanny state can't fix the diaper rash

I'm pinging this on a cyber cast

Questioning news items playing pattycake with Ira Glass

The fact that this pony show's racist

Stirs the colloquial cake mix and charges the homeostasis

Of all the homies who await us like we some Smokin' Joe Fraziers

But my unchecked whining's like some ceremonial plate shift

[Hook: Busdriver]

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

We can make this better

[Verse 2: Aesop Rock]

Ay

Before long, boil the bones

A little celery chop

A little pepper, a little milk of the poppy

Little posse in effect

Analog mono-poly Man'o'War

Walloping the auto-poly avatar

Mind on his Mallomars

Money on the iron lung

Clumsy with the can of worms

Usher you behind the sun

He shoots he whores, truly stupid troubadours and elders

Stock the shelter with frijoles and blueberry New York Seltzers

Roll up in a pa-diddle like a doofus

Hit the corner like the devil is a cubist

I'm ruthless, the sigil is dog with a cone, feeling foolish

Seven hells calling all foreseeable futures

Be it obtained culprit

Crippling migraine and strange stomach

Or a stray bullet through his gray mullet

I am ivy up the god damn lattice

March to the math rock

Raw, no cartoon mascot

The Mario pajama bottoms clumsily rappelling

Under a gibbous moon

Hunting for shitty food

Gunning, too tough, embedded in bad magic

Duckboy, shit is quacktastic

[Hook: Busdriver]

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

[Bridge: Busdriver]

I'm not done yet

I'm not done yet

I'm not done yet

I'm not done yet

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

[Verse 3: Danny Brown]

Rap Marilyn Manson, about as hot as a Vanson

With two hoodies on the beach with two bitches crump dancin'

Rappers put your bets in, last man standin'

Bars hit so hard you ricochet off the planet

The motherfucking hybrid, tell Miley Cyrus text me

When I holler to her private I'm tryna get them privates

Parts, don't start, take heart like Kano

Remember when I told to you niggas drink all the Dran-o

Pop all the pills, take all the lines

Chop through a window with some sawblade blinds

Back on that shit, guess what this time?

Half a stick of dynamite where the sun don't shine

Any nigga disrespecting, chin check 'em 'til he's slinky-neck

Blowing dope, eyes low and chinky like I'm Mannie Fresh

Countdown to extinction, no nigga not Megadeth

So many dead rappers, can't even take baby steps

Walking over carcasses of artists in my garden

Been nice with this shit since Nas was writin' past the margin

Any nigga wanna start it, I fuckin' beg your pardon

I'm with arson, I'm the firestarter; Prodigy invent the art

Smack my bitch up in the mouth with my dick

And it's not domestic violence cause she likes that shit

There's no sentence to describe it, homie

Except she sucked it like her fucking life depended on it

[Hook: Busdriver]

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

We can make this better, but we're not, yes we will

We're just looking for something inside us to kill

We can make this better
