Astronomy
[Verse 1]
I be stargazin' via the trail I'm blazin'
Blaze so many different ways, oh the stars look amazin'
Kinda wanna keep receipts on who ignored me or said no
Until I recall just how low their floor be and how high my ceilin' go
To a star I been, can't remember when, but remember that I found my Zen over again
Way on up in space, you can never keep a pace, up high, I'm flyin' red eye, look at my face
Telescopin' my vision with a precision that's hard to find these days without holdin' a star chart
Grand trine, a top astronomer, so confer with your crew 'til it do occur you're done hеre
[Chorus]
This shit astronomy to me, so easy
Way abovе the enemy, you don't see me
This shit astronomy, that's the way it gotta be
I'm runnin' whole orbits around you
Surround you with metaphors to ground you
[Verse 2]
And my eyes look up, full of wonderment, wonder where your wonder went, prolly under
Constellation is what I'm chasin, make me never wanna switch the station
Charts are comin' with the right stars, with the right bars, I'm tired of all these rappers and their repertoires
And I'm gettin' precision, the vision a careful incision of wider intelligent decision
They cannot compete, I weed 'em, and seed 'em then feed 'em and let 'em grow again and then pull 'em out and beat 'em
And I hit 'em with venom in wit, my quippin' is lit, I'm legit but it take a star and chart to give me no quit
Yeah, it's been a blast, but I gotta run, sky is callin', and me I'm under the gun, no fun, but I'm under no one
Or two or three, I manage me and I do it through all of my stellar astronomy, so let's fly
[Chorus]
This shit astronomy to me, so easy
Way above the enemy, you don't see me
This shit astronomy, that's the way it gotta be
I'm runnin' whole orbits around you
Surround you with metaphors to ground you
[Verse 3]
Just like that, the beat bring me back, Return Of The Mack bumpin' in the back
Culture I never lack, guess my life is just one big throwback to a time that wasn't whack
Yeah, been studyin' astronomy, helped me create a dichotomy, I'm in orbit
A Pisces, my eye see a lie with no surprise, up in space makin' Icees
Anticipate planets, I play chess, play the motherfuckin' game right, never guess
I'm over here movin' them pawns on fake Beverly Hill lawns and makin' a mess
I've been to stars, been to Mars, took a trip in flyin' cars to try and bring you better bars
Through the blood, sweat, and tears, all the scars, every one of 'em are ours, I guess I'll see you in the memoirs
[Chorus 2]
It's gettin' late, every day I wait and wait
For my innate dreams of the stars to reap in what I affirmate
And there's no debate, the sky I can manipulate
But I'm afraid my mappin' skill's too late, feels like I'm stuck at eight
[Verse 4]
Take it back to a time when words count, take it back to when there wasn't any kind of doubt
Take it back, to way back when, neither here nor then, tell it to the world, go shout
I made mistakes, in stakes, he awakes, walk lakes, unlike these motherfuckers doin' nothin' but retakes
Remakes, remix, and you know I got your six, but only one stick, thinkin' of the future got me sick, but it's my pick
Now I'm gunnin' through 'em all like Wick mixed with a Rick Sanchez so you better do what this man says
Ethos mean business
[Chorus 2]
It's gettin' late, every day I wait and wait
For my innate dreams of the stars to reap in what I affirmate
And there's no debate, the sky I can manipulate
But I'm afraid my mappin' skill's too late, feels like I'm stuck at eight
[End]
I was born, with a worn scorn this jewel I adorn is the crown I weather through the storm
Saturn we mourn, mourning beginnin' in morn, begin a new norm, a feelin' that so good and warm
I was born, with a worn scorn, this jewel I adorn is the crown I weather through the storm
Saturn we mourn, mourning beginnin' in morn, begin a new norm, a feelin' that so good and warm
