lyrics

hook
i can stitch a wing with a six string (six string)
i can pick a dream out the mud (out the mud yea)
i can make a sick fiend seem pristine (pristine)
if you gon wipe me down clean me up (clean me up yea)
i don’t need a king no Elohim (Elohim)
i can see the cream from the crud (from the crud yea)
ima sew these Ernie Balls on an eagle wing (an eagle wing)
if you can’t hold me down bring me up (if you can’t hold me down pfft fuck it)

inkline
yea i been going up i guess i must fall / i just hope they show me love with the trust fall / there’s a couple shelves that i gotta dust off / but i gotta do it for myself i don’t trust y’all / caught between a rock and a tough spot / hard headed thought process like a musk ox/ used to cop fresh drops at the bus stop / i assumed you knew who you dealing with (must not) / just stopped to smell the roses at the grave site / that’s that old me (yea) that’s that snake bite / that’s an old sad story told by the cave light / have you ever seen a baby face on a great white / safe flight to the moon on the dark side / Syd Barrett on a cruise in the archives / that part i’m blues on guitar / got booze for the barfly lookin for a dark dive

hook
uhh yea i can stitch a wing with a six string (six string)
i can pick a dream out the mud (out the mud yea)
i can make a sick fiend seem pristine (pristine)
if you gon wipe me down clean me up (clean me up yea)
i don’t need a king no Elohim (Elohim)
i can see the cream from the crud (from the crud yea)
ima sew these Ernie Balls on an eagle wing (an eagle wing)
if you can’t hold me down bring me up (if you can’t hold me down pfft)

ozu
Cant you see im tryna tighten up
Get in tune
So i can play my part
Developed in the dark
Among the shadow of a doubt
Whats it all about
Devout alchemist
Tryna balance these feathers & bricks
Is more challenging
Dan patching up the damages
But i been managing
Well
I took chaos
& made a sound mind out of it
K, ahhh
Its levels to dis shit
Stop staring
Lighten up
I'm bright as fuck now
I cant stop glaring
Polishing
All des trophies
I pulled out catastrophe
Pic in my pocket
Sculpting
Ill chisel me a masterpiece
Chipping away the tarnish
I once garnished
From my garment
Dat monkey on my back
Became the warden of my torment
Now I could either drown
In a circle of fifths
Or sustain & refrain
I think ill work on my riffs
I'm jus a pawn in nature's game
Tryna make it to king
Slip
Slide to da other side
Of the board
I struck a chord
The art of noise
Boy

“that’s kinda far out.

mazes and monsters is a far out game. swords, poison, spells, battles, maiming, killing —

hey it’s all imagination…

is it?”
