Call + Form (Picture)

In the palace of the peacock, eating the kingdom of God
You were too busy talking when that snake said love is chosen
That Mrs is very cordial, those kisses are territorial
It's October so I'm reading Nobakov again
I mark the book with an olive colored pen
In that nest of complex questions
And unapologizing brutalities
Freedom is its own kind of salary
Even the people who made me are constant in unraveling
The disappointment when you learn the trophy was a photograph
Remember that?
They say this is the last happiness, and they blink
I refuse to learn their names

You shouldn't be next to me with that finicky energy
You shouldn't be next to me with that finicky energy
You shouldn't be next to me with that finicky energy
You shouldn't be next to me

And the cowards with their knocking fucking knees
They can't even keep a quarter beat
I know there's packet loss and latencies
None the less
It's the unimpressed alchemist
The pity who doubting this
In your city with a double-breasted falcon crest
Chest plate, male tunic, in this society of spectacle
It's the shoe bomber who's waltzing through
It's a kind of hopelessness, a loneliness
A color I only ever heard played by a nigga named Thelonious
I spend experience points on knowledge, cunning, and stealth
Spit a diaphanous gossamer
And then he signed it in calligraphy
Sincerely, just another blasphemous philosopher
Quick question

Why's your favorite rapper always bragging about her business acumen?
Like we asked em? Like we asked em?
Why's your favorite rapper always babbling about his brand again?
Like we asked him? Like we asked him?
This the last call for those real emcees, you know
This the last call for those real emcees, I said
This the last call for those real emcees
Your voice is needed

This the last call
This the last call

Hmm
Bones
Hmm

Peace to DJ Nobody
Peace to the Ruby Yacht
What they say?

They said, Godspeed with that black ennui

They said, Godspeed with that black ennui
Guess I'll keep rapping til they toetag me
They said, Godspeed with that black ennui
Guess I'll keep rapping til they toetag me
They said, Godspeed you black emperor
They said, Godspeed you black emperor
