Walk Into The Sunset

[Verse 1: Illogic]
I used to watch the sky bleed, rush to bandage the lashes
Now I laugh at the lacerations and add a few gashes
‘cause for every spoon that breaks, there’s a spoon that bends
And for every earth that quakes, there’s a earth that stands
See I place ply boards on the surface to surf the quicksands
Before sinking into a worthless abyss where there’s no kickstands
Equator turns prime meridian and life takes a lean
Where pleasure’s replaced by pain and contentment is a dream
I’m in a paddleboat, stranded out to sea because the paddle’s broke
Lost contact with the world when I disposed of my radio
Tossed it in the deep blue, now I float aimlessly
Strangely caught in a whirlpool, centrifugal force restraining me
‘cause when god shuts a door, he cracks a window with a milestone
While playing taps at a rapid tempo ’til the crowd's gone
Wondering where my art would go but I was too scared to ask him
I’m stuck in a room of beginning swimmers, drowning in sarcasm

[Hook: Ill Poetic]
I said the sky (sky)
Bleed (bleed)
Blood (blood)
Red (red)
The radio ain’t living, y’all just listen to the undead
So I walk into the sunset
Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset
Gimme one sec, homie, I ain’t done yet
Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset

[Verse 2: Illogic]
I used to watch the sky bleed, rush to bandage the lashes
Now I laugh at the lacerations and add a few gashes
As I tiptoe across egg shells with infant demeanor
Stumbling every few sanity steps
Left imprints in inkblots, stock is an official pen bleeder
Guess it’s all in the name of consequence reaction
Labor ready fashion, crashing deadly medleys of windpipe sound and smashing
Pumpkins with desperado guitar case clashing, dumping
The monkey off my back into the rainforest and desecrating the landscape
After scolding Goldilocks with Papa Bear’s porridge
Remove the village idiot for masquerading
Misconstrued mic handles, I use phalange tips to light candles
Holding vigils for subdued no-action mic-vandals
Continuity crisscrossed by lifeline with nighttime
Congruency can only be measured in timeline casing causing heart racing
Faulty pacemaking cost me an arm and a leg

[Hook: Ill Poetic]
I said the sky (sky)
Bleed (bleed)
Blood (blood)
Red (red)
The radio ain’t living, y’all just listen to the undead
So I walk into the sunset
Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset
Gimme one sec, homie, I ain’t done yet
Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset

[Verse 3: Illogic]
I used to watch the sky bleed, rush to bandage the lashes
Now I laugh at the lacerations and add a few gashes
Lacing my blunt reality with carbon-based alchemy
And you approach me like iron clad comrades read our name tags, see
I relate to copulate like me and ovulate had different moms but same dads
I knew I shouldn’t’ve responded to the atlas replacement newspaper ad
I wish I could subtract a few cats from the globe I hold on my back
Galaxy orbits reflect a racetrack and I’m sick of doing laps
You see it’s no pain, no gain, no name, no fame, I’m going insane
Waiting for passengers to climb aboard my thought-train
Left to comb my locks, checked the shoebox for a spare soul
Before splashing the tin man and taking a match to the scarecrow
I’m an Emerald City outcast with flying monkey demeanor
Took back routes ‘cause Yellow Brick Road splashed paint on my sneakers

[Hook: Ill Poetic]
I said the sky (sky)
Bleed (bleed)
Blood (blood)
Red (red)
The radio ain’t living, y’all just listen to the undead
So I walk into the sunset
Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset
Gimme one sec, homie, I ain’t done yet
Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset
