Aesop Rock - Sinister Lyrics






[Sample from "Snatch"]
"Do you know what 'nemesis' means?
A righteous infliction of retribution
Manifested by an appropriate agent....
Personified in this case by me"

[Aesop Rock]
We're all in the same gang, bread and butter
Just a couple subdivisions who naturally hate each other
Influences shark biting the fuck outta your brother
Friendship is Professor Plum ratting on Colonel Mustard
You are now witnessing the world's most craft version
Of a barnstormer, reveal time with a jagged edge
Arm mortars and ?free minds? for a bastard sledge
On the style diamond cutter
Swung before that magnificent havok sketch
You fidget like a nervous culprit gulping
Sweat a bullet, dead a bullshit sequence reactor
Speaking disaster
Who leaped off the canvas to provoke a ?style miner?
Fake as the grass with a sturdy belly and his work to sell me
I got my word to tell you
I got absurd magic
For the forks like pistons pumping through the realm my family habits
(Madder or Rabbit Hat[?] combination)
Nah, more like I'm spitting pixleak dust
Till the mixed vapor community combusts

[Yeshua Da Poed]
I hold words for ransom
Demand some attention pays
Not to mention praise for their release on a page
It might amaze the light of day
I never said I, gave, them all, the fight to be brave
More insight to behave
Raw like them others
Whose ads have been paid for by some brothers
While some of us lie in the eyes of others
I discovered another way to stay undercover
Kill everyone involved, Unsolve
Mysteries, this to me is how to leave matters resolved
Out of this all, you should take a break, ask the fake
Get snatched out your habitat and left on the side of alake
I try to debate
Whether a clean getaway is harder to make
Than a call to the cleaners
Dropped off a seamless bag
Zipped it up with enough cash to pay the cat
With the aqua demeanor

[Vast Aire]
God is a name I call myself
I don't like Ugly, Original, Synthetic
I breathe rusty air logic
It becomes the lung, the mind is a closet
That is if it's a walk-in, cuz I'm open
You fell from the clips of weakness, I scoped it
I'll ball your rhyme up and stuff it inside my mouth
As if this was the first grade...(C'mon man)
And you'll just stand there
Your eyes'll water up
And your teeth'll grind cuz you rhyme first grade
Seeing me is like time, I'm a caged poet
But I think life is more than a jail sentence
That's why I, took my time
Doing calisthenics which euphemisms to hand out a life sentence
When I rhyme, I put my ass crack in it
And you in a glass bottom boat with a crack in it
So fuck your attitude
My poetry's position is the sole definition of latitude

"Sinister" [repeated]

"You tell the angels in heaven you've never seen
An evil so singular personified as you being hit
In the face by the man who killed you"

    Do you know what 'nemesis' means?
    A righteous infliction of retribution
    Manifested by an appropriate agent....
    Personified in this case by me

    (Verse 1: Aesop Rock)
    We're all in the same gang, bread and butter
    Just a couple subdivisions who naturally hate each other
    Influences shark biting the fuck outta your brother
    Friendship is Professor Plum ratting on Colonel Mustard
    You are now witnessing the world's most crass version
    Of a barnstormer, reveal time with a jagged edge
    Arm mortars and field mines for a bastard pledge
    On the style diamond cutter
    Swung before that magnificent havok sketch
    You fidget like a nervous culprit gulping
    Sweat a bullet, dead a bullshit sequence reactor
    Speaking disaster
    Who leaped off the canvas to provoke a side-winding
    Snake in the grass with a sturdy belly and his word to sell me
    I got my word to tell you
    I got absurd magic
    For the forks like pistons pumping through the realm my family habits (Is that a rabbit/hat combination)
    Nah, more like I spit pixie dust
    Till the mixtaper community combusts

    (Verse 2: Yeshua Da Poed)
    I hold words for ransom
    Demand some attention pays
    Not to mention praise for their release on a page
    It might amaze the light of day
    I never said I, gave, them all, the fight to be brave
    More insight to behave
    Raw like them others
    Whose ads have been paid for by some brothers
    While some of us lie in the eyes of others
    I discovered another way to stay undercover
    Kill everyone involved, Unsolve
    Mysteries, this to me is how to leave matters resolved
    Out of this all, you should take a break as the bait
    Get snatched out your habitat and left on the side of alake
    I try to debate
    Whether a clean getaway is harder to make
    Than a call to the cleaners
    Dropped off a seamless bag
    Zipped it up with enough cash to pay the cat
    With the awkward demeanor

    (Verse 3: Vast Aire)
    God is a name I call myself
    I don't like Ugly, Original, Synthetic
    I breathe rusty air logic
    It becomes the lung, the mind is a closet
    That is if it's a walk-in, cuz I'm open
    You fell from the clips of weakness, I scoped it
    I'll ball your rhyme up and stuff it inside my mouth

    You tell the angels in heaven you've never seen
    An evil so singular personified as you being hit
    In the face by the man who killed you

    A favorite of mine. That whole Def Jux and Rhymesayers record label mash up is unstoppable. So many tracks that went unreleased. That's where the dope shit is. WAAAAYYYY deep underground. Peace
