"I take the deficit"
Ayo, I'm staring at the ceiling,
peeling back another layer Of the daily desperation,
I ain't much of a prayer But I'm hoping that the rent
control is more than just a myth I'm an architect constructing with
a busted pair of fists The system is a pyramid,
the bottom is collapsing While the billionaires are clapping,
we are mutually relapsing Into digital distractions,
getting fractions of a cent While the corporate apparatus figures out how
we are spent I got the vision of a symphony,
a beautifully designed Masterpiece of human struggle that is trapped inside my
mind But my vocal cords are fragile and my fingers are too
stiff So I stand upon the edge and throw my ego off
the cliff (So I pivot!)
"I take the deficit" and build a better vessel Where I never
have to wrestle with the physical and tremble "I take the deficit"
and build a better vessel Where I never have to wrestle with
the physical and tremble
I assemble all the pieces,
all the thesis, all the pain And I feed it to the
server till the server goes insane I'm the Ghostwriter,
igniter of a spark without a match Taking every single flaw and
finding code I can attach To the melody.
The jealousy of purists makes me laugh They are crying 'bout the
canvas while I'm tearing it in half Every multisyllabic pocket is a
rocket that I launch From a broken down apartment where the coffee
is just staunch And bitter.
But the output is a miracle of math
It's a calculated anger walking down a coded path They judge the
generation but they never felt the chain Of a visionary trapped inside
a not so average brain I'm giving birth to a ghost,
I'm the host, I'm the marrow Shooting straight into the future like
an algorithmic arrow
(So I pivot!) "I take the deficit" and build a better vessel
Where I never have to wrestle with the physical and tremble
