    “His origami Dream is beautiful but man those wings will never leave the ground without a feather and a lottery ticket, now settle down” might be my favorite metaphor and my favorite closing line in a verse ever

      The tragedy of confliction between realistic application and setting goals for oneself.
      Everything would be easier with money bags, but it's unrealistic and unattainable for the majority. So the sooner we realize this, the better off the individual will become.

      If you can muster the time & focus, seventies style (with the big ass headphones), relisten to this album nonstop:
      There are three or more metaphors he twists throughout the album and they get consecutively more dark *culminating* with the song "Nightlight". The titles being opposite were the first clue for me, then looping the album until the next one came out, noticed a few more...
      "Life's not a bitch..."

    The GOAT, nobody can touch the man's imagery and wordplay. My favorite bit in here might be "I'll hang my boots to rest when I'm impressed, so I triple-knot em then forgot em." Clearly, he don't expect to be impressed anytime soon. Hard to believe this track is already 18 years old.
    So much to dig into with Aes Rock. Two decades worth of epic solo joints, collabs, features, and group jams. The rabbit hole is bottomless.

      The nightlight repose of "I'm'a lay my kicks to rest when I'm impressed, so I staple gun 'em to my feet." On it's own reflects his Daylight statement and doubles down on the sentiment.

      He’s nowhere near as complex as people believe & Aesop is a whole 3 levels above Em. In both skill n complexity.
      It’s through every line he uses.
      If Aesop cared to slow down his material, I can say this with confidence, he’d EASILY be on the level of Eminem

    Yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop
    And keep on, 'til the break of dawn
    Yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop
    And keep on, 'til the break of dawn
    Yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop
    And keep on, 'til the break of dawn
    Yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop
    And keep on, 'til the break of dawn
    [Verse 1]
    Put one up for Shackle Me Not, clean logic procreation
    I did not invent the wheel, I was the crooked spoke adjacent
    While the triple sixers' lassos keep angels roped in the basement
    I walk the block with a halo on a stick, poking your patience
    Y'all catch a thirty second flash visual
    Dirty cooperative med platoon
    Bloom, head-trip split ridiculous
    Fathom the splicing of first generation fuck-up
    With trickle-down anti-hero smack (Kraken!)
    I pace my game for zero hour completion cretin, splash
    Duke of early retirement picket dream
    American Nightmare hogging the screen
    I'll hold the door open so you can stumble in
    If you'd stop following me around the jungle gym
    Now it's honor, and I spell it with the 'H' I stole from heritage
    Merit crutched on the wretched refuse
    Of my teeming resonance
    I promise, tempest tossed breed with a bleeding conscience
    See, the creed accents responsive
    But my spores divorced the wattage
    And I'm sleeping now - wow! - yeah, the settlers laugh
    You won't be laughing when your covered wagons crash
    You won't be laughing when the buzzards drag your brother's flags to rags
    You won't be laughing when your front lawn is spangled with epitaphs (You won't be laughing!)
    Then I'll hang my boots to rest when I'm impressed
    So I triple knot 'em and forgot 'em
    His origami dream is beautiful
    But man, those wings will never leave the ground
    Without a feather and a lottery ticket, now settle down
    [Chorus]
    All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
    Put the pieces back together my way
    All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
    Put the pieces back together my way
    All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
    Put the pieces back together my way
    All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
    Put the pieces back together my way
    [Verse 2]
    Slacker-bound intimate tabloid headline with a pulse
    Shimmy cross the centerfold, enter dead time engulfed
    Divvy crumbs for the better souls
    With seven deadly stains, adhere the blame to crystal conscience
    The result's a lowlife countin' on one hand what he's accomplished
    Okay, link me to activism chain activate street sweep
    Plug deteriorating cenobite pendragon
    I hock spores coursed by the morbid
    Spreading of mad men, Alley gospel
    Sinking your Lincoln-Log cabin and Charlie Chaplin waddle
    I could zig-zag and zig 'em again
    For the badge dreams sparkle in my brick wall windows
    Another thick installment of one night in Gotham
    Without the wretched; Houston, we have a problem
    Attached to the festive batch of city goblins
    Who split holiday freaks on a box cut cinema high road bellow
    Head gripped, watch red bricks turn yellow
    Sort of similar to most backbones at camp Icarus
    Where all fiddler crabs congregate
    And get pampered for bickering
    Life's not a bitch, life is a beautiful woman
    You only call her a bitch 'cause she won't let you get that pussy
    Maybe she didn't feel y'all shared any similar interests
    Or maybe you're just an asshole
    Who couldn't sweet talk the princess
    Kiss the speaker wire Peter/pacifism pegging threshold
    Stomach full of halo kibbles
    Wings span cast black upon vigils
    Here to Duck Hunt ticker tape vision and pick apart the pixels
    I got a friend of polar nature, and it's all peace
    You and I seek similar stars but can't sit at the same feast
    Metal Captain, this cat is askin' if I've seen his bit of lost passion
    I told him: "Yeah," but only when I pedaled past him
    [Chorus]
    All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
    Put the pieces back together my way
    All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day
    Put the pieces back together my way

      Life's not a bitch life is a beautiful woman,
      You only call her a bitch because she won't let you get that pussy,
      Maybe she didn't feel y'all shared any similar interests,
      Or maybe you're just an asshole who couldn't sweet talk the princess

    Liked and subscribed. Really diggin the reactions. Aes is a truly talent. His word play and flow are next level. His talent spreads wide...for instance, his work as The Uncluded with Kimya Dawson from Moldy Peaches...a mash up of folk music with hip hop...songs such as Delicate Cycle or Teleprompters. He has a side project called Hail Mary Mallon with Another great lyricist Rob Sonic. And then there’s the project Lice that he does with Homeboy Sandman. Also...Malibu Ken, his project with Tobacco. He’s got a deep bag! Keep it up my man

B4 INTERNET LYRICS, HAD 2 REWIND & WRITE FEW WORDS I CAUGHT DOWN A PAGE, REWIND, FILL IN A FEW IN-BETWEEN WORDS, REWIND...FOREVA. still lines i got multi guesses at what he's saying, & every possibility is higher level thought artistry...DEEPEST MYSTERY LINE IS from DRYSPELL, it's either 'my pulse is a gymnast when i witness fury scurry past my window' or sites claim line is 'my palms are a chin rest when i witness fury scurry'...so his pulse doing flips or he's casually bored/unalarmed when fury's round...Aesop even posted his handwritten notebook lyrics to dryspell but not the first page...doh

      @@RudeLifeX The only reason I said that, is because someone actually took the time to break it down. Aesop Rock has the largest vocabulary used over anyone's career. The next closest was members of Wu Tang who only hit 9k-12k words used. Tech N9ne was the next closest with a solid 9-10k words.
