Aesop Rock - Molecules Lyrics

One of the most underrated artists ever

(That's impossible
Come on
Spoilers
The non bon-voyage stock weaponry and soylents
And whatever stopped the voices
Colossal paranoia's out to author an abrasive law
About how warpaint won't assure you ain't a painted whore, baby
No ground wires, all jaw froth
Mouth breathing outliers climb outta mothballs
Wrung stones unsung and alone
Known to run up in the unknown "Honey I'm home!"
I push a bucket of bolts, a sort of death in his wake
I take the hand off the thief, I take the head off a snake
Approach a pen like revolution's just a sentence away
Til then he's documenting cops and watching heaven decay
It's not a gentleman's game it's a generation raised accordingly
You'll know the differences between the cozy and the quarantine
Yes y'all the crest fallen care warn
Ear horn, heir whorin', heir whorin', air horn
These awful winds
Those grinding gears
This pile o' bones
That's why I'm here
Wild frontier
(Come on)
These violent drums
Those primal fears
This pool of mud
That's why I'm here
W-w-w-w-wild frontier
That's impossible, body's still warm
Scavengers already obsessively knocking on his molecules
I'm catatonic fat and outta rocket fuel and ramen
Not a dollar watching Rocky II in Donatello boxers
At some hot as hell motel in what's supposed to be his Shangri La
More akin of angry mobs with anchor tats and mangy dogs in vacant lots
Traded any semblance of consistency to play the odds
Not even a baby doll to change his gauze
Not even a hide-away to hide up in
A side effect of sliding environment to environment
Driving isn't simply when the tires spin, try again
Departures and arrivals aren't only time in mileage
Try again again a raider break off from the phalanx
And never look back never cook crack K thanks bye
New York in the rear view then peel...
Out, til he found New York in the windshield
These cursed dogs
Those flying spears
This rancid food
That's why I'm here
Wild frontier
(Come on)
These fleeting hopes
Those vital prayers
This bag of cash
That's why I'm here
W-w-w-w-wild frontier
This was never an effective way to rally insurgents
Or really even the occupation of a rational person
When you write about seclusion and some buyers finally tune in
You get frightened finding happiness can drive away the movement
In a jiffy, just eat your food and keep the future iffy
That fruition's for the viewers who need a loser to pity
Plus an underlying message of a greater disconnection
God forbid he try to live or gain momentum
Mend or pay his penance
You'd rather see him eat a bowl of mouse traps
Surf a thousand couches
Take a jagged little down the hatch
Chowder heads
I know you love the way the failure flounder
Maybe I could be your daily downer
If his brain left his body and was headed for the door
Would you take it and then help it find its way into a jar?
No? fuck it, let him hop around a maze
We can see who's really lost when the schadenfreude fades
These churning seas
Those quiet sneers
This box of parts
That's why I'm here
Wild frontier
(Come on)
These creepy friends
Those dicey dares
This perfect dark
That's why I'm here
W-w-w-w wild frontier

The non bon-voyage stock weaponry and soylents
And whatever stop the voices
Colossal paranoias out to author an abrasive lore
About how war paint won't assure you ain't a painted whore, baby
No ground wires, all jaw froth
Mouth-breathing outliers climb out of mothballs
Wrung stones unsung and alone
Known to run up in the unknown "honey I'm home"
I push a bucket of bolts, assorted death in his wake
I take the hand off the thief, I take the head off a snake
Approach a pen like revolution's just a sentence away
Til then he's documenting cops and watching Heaven decay
It's not a gentleman's game it's a generation braced accordingly
Who know the differences between the cozy and the quarantine
Yes y'all the crestfallen careworn
Air horn, air horn, air horn, air horn

These awful winds
Those grinding gears
This pile o' bones
That's why I'm here
Wild frontier
(Come on)

These violent drums
Those primal fears
This pool of mud
That's why I'm here
W-w-w-w-wild frontier

Man this album is his best work in my personal opinion aes is like wine he only gets better with age🤘

I'm actually in the minority who prefers IK over LD.

@Thurman Merman same i plan on getting a IK tattoo

@Zach Sepeda Hope it turns out to look good....... Cheers.

I appreciate it im replacing kirby with my childhood rottweiler

Thank you for this! Its beautiful

Some lyric sheets say "air horn" 4 times, but others say "Ear horn, heir whorin', heir whorin', air horn". Anyone know which is correct? Google's first result says the latter

I can't tell any difference from the track so my assumption would be "air horn" x 4 unless Aesop has specifically confirmed otherwise.

Drum beat reminds me of The Greater Good - Nine Inch Nails

Best song off the album

The 👑 of hip-hop.

Masterpiece

*"That's lmpossible!"*

Some of my all-time favourite Aes lyrics in this.

'We can see who's really lost
when the schadenfreude fades..."

dope shit¡

Please don't say bad words.

I kno u love the way failure flounders, may i could be ur daily downer? If its brain left his body and was headed for the door would u take it in and help its way into a jar?No? let it hop arround a maze - We'll see who really lost when the Schadenfreude fades... Dang dood, killin it

There are dislikes on this? Why?

Probably mostly on accident, to be honest. When using YouTube on my phone I always inadvertently click dislike while scrolling. Sometimes I notice, but there's been a bunch i didn't until I revisited the video.

Chowder-heads.
I know you love the way the failure flounders,Maybe I could be your daily downer.

No?
Fuck it, let him hop around a maze.

This is one of the finest verses I've ever heard.

Roman Kappert I winced

I’ve never loved being attacked so much

I can't turn this shit up loud enough :(

Right!?

This is a BADASS TRACK ON A BADASS ALBUM HOLY SHIT THAT BASS

great song Aesop Rock. Your music always reminds me of the soul crushing anxiety I feel when I talk to my dad. Anyway bounced on my boys dick to this for all of 3 seconds, when I had to stop cos I head sirens, still cant be gay in Russia bet you didn't know that. All hail the the one true god Vladimir Putin, Procter of the realm, and one true heir to the iron throne. @VladimirPutin pleas explain the many, many! folders we found when we hacked Hillary Clinton's Emails containing anime hentai that you sent and reseved pictures from. Oh no this is't twitter it happened again. oh well, I'll see you Americans when the war for Norther Korea breaks out in 3025, I fucked your sister mister over and out.

I was at a Long Beach Dub show on 4/20 in COS and saw this dude that looked like Aesop. I'd suppose the festivities caused me to stare too long to contemplate. Dude spread his arms open, and actually said "You wanna fight?". My laughter from thinking, "Please Aesop, don't punch me on 4/20" combined with trying to figure out who's trying to fight on a holiday was enough to disarm the situation. That's impossible.

SPOILERS

I did a verse to this track. Check out the track "Zenith" on my channel :)

push a bucket of bolts/assorted death in his wake/approach a pen like revolution is just a sentence away........ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥📊📊📊📊📊📊🎼🎼🎼🎼.. for u purists who wondered why not use the Grand Staff and the BARS in its construct.. cuz contrarian. k? duplo's...✌

I don't like this album much.I think the flow is way too similar on every song here.

qw000pz Ever heard of an LP? It’s an album whose songs all have a similar point and/or discuss the same focus.

go back to folk music

@Brandon C lol

airhorn, airhorn, airhorn, airhorn.

@Wasted Druid no its not lol

@ganjalf creamcorn google it bruh.

@ganjalf creamcorn Ear horn, heir whorin', heir whorin', air horn

I know this is two years ago but fucking A, youre lucky as hell

"I take the hand off a thief, I take the head off a snake
Approach a pen like revolution's just a sentence away"

The feeling of a true artist

"A side effect of sliding environment to environment"

I like that Eraserhead profile pic doe

kids moving from environment to environment seems to be a variable with a high coefficient in genius status

Yoooo... that escalating bass line is soooo sick!

*ascending ;) but yes.... agreed.
