Aesop Rock – Daylight

Lyrics

("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")
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 sports 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
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
("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")
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
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
("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")

Paroles (Traduction)

"Oui, oui, vous tous, et vous ne vous arrêtez pas
Et continuez, jusqu'à l'aube")
("Oui, oui, vous tous, et vous ne vous arrêtez pas
Et continuez, jusqu'à l'aube")

Je soulève le drapeau pour "Shackle Me Not", procréation logique et propre
Je n'ai pas inventé la roue, j'étais le rayon tordu adjacent
Pendant que les lassos des "triple sixers" retiennent les anges enchaînés dans le sous-sol
Je parcours le bloc avec un halo sur un bâton, testant votre patience
Vous saisissez une vision flash de trente secondes
Sale coopérative médicale de peloton
Épanouissement, voyage mental ridicule
J'appréhende la fusion de la génération d'imbéciles
Avec la drogue anti-héros qui coule vers le bas (Kraken!)
Je module mon jeu pour une complétion à zéro heure, crétin éclaboussant
Duc de rêve de retraite anticipée
Cauchemar américain monopolisant l'écran
Je tiendrai la porte ouverte pour que vous puissiez trébucher
Si vous arrêtiez de me suivre autour du terrain de jeu
Maintenant c'est l'honneur, et je l'épelle avec le "H" que j'ai volé à l'héritage
Le mérite béquillé sur le rebut misérable de ma résonance féconde
Je promets, race ballottée par les tempêtes avec une conscience saignante
Voyez, le credo accentue la réactivité mais mes sports ont divorcé de la puissance
Et je dors maintenant — wow! — ouais, les colons rient
Vous ne rirez pas quand vos chariots couverts s'écraseront
Vous ne rirez pas quand
