rest in love WRLD

“I’m a doctor and I’m running out of patience” Juice said

Another Young King, gone too soon, gone to the moon

Listen to the lyrics – Wasted, wasted, wasted*

What that mean really?

Wasted cause we’re too high, just trying to escape

Wasted so much time, cause we’re at a point?

Where it’s what’s the fucking point?

I hear stories from loved ones and friends from days of my own past

Did they know how high I was?

The Psychic told me cousin to stop drinking

Little did I know the demons of altered thinking

Twenties long gone, thank God I exited that basement

But if that’s what I did, and it’s even more intense

In this scroll this, swipe that culture

Has the cyberpunk dystopia warned in premonitions

'created' long past finally come true

Is it a stretch to think Cthulu is in the White House

And he's been cloaked in Red, then Blue?

Like Jay rhymed, "Do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it?"*

When's the last time you praised a sign?

What's the greatest memory saved in your (re)collection?

Who's serving these memories? Is it an algorithm predicting you?

Or is it really you?

Can you blame a kid,

a kid with money for

loading up on guns and drugs,

when he was rapping his pain

A pain born out of a cycle of collective conscious desecration?
