Will they sing about your sorrow
Like they sing about Achilles' rage
Even if you put
The lyrics and notes on a page
And stuffed em down the mouths of
Every vocalist close to a stage
You want your lowest point to
Usher new hope for your age
You want your muse to live as
Fuel for a worthier saint
One more disciplined with
Turning their words into paint
But they can't make the
Tryout, rehearsal or play
If ain't nobody noticed
Casting managers searching today
You want to give your friend
The years that the universe took
You want a monument
To get Ozymandius shook
She deserves a longer stretch
And a lengthier book
80 bars for every verse
And a lengthier hook
You want the folks that loved her dearest
To bask in her light
To feel the warmth of her embrace
And her laugh and her sigh
And your only building blocks
Are the raps that you write
That might not even reach anyone's ear
But you have to recite

Don't be still
Be swift while the iron's hot
Like a avalanche boulder
No one would try to stop
If you want it hard enough
Then you don't need no rocket
One foot in front of the other
To ditch this dying rock
Don't be still
Be swift while the iron's hot
Like a avalanche boulder
No one would try to stop
If you need it you'll be it
And it won't take no jets
One foot in front of the other
To get away from death

Would you build your love a temple
Before you could make yourself a house
A grand cathedral that
Liberates all its guests from doubt
Structure so sturdy
The centuries couldn't rust it down
Bricks that laugh at
Exploding stars when they're shutting down
Would you raise a
New society to bless her name
Torch the cities of any
Who celebrate her pain
Of course you'd have to climb back
Outta your couch and the games
You're playing getting stagnant
(Man)
Ducking calendars counting the days
(Stop playing)
Ain't no legacy building
If you're strapped to despair
Steady sleeping cuz in dreams
There's still spaces you share
Waking up to a tragic
That's too sad to be bared
Grown-ass-man just finding out that
Life isn't actually fair
Tears ain't only homonyms
They are actually tears
You spend your life restitching lest your innards
Might catch too much air
Tryna share her brand of magic
They had to be there
The truth is ain't no going back cuz
Your better half isn't here

Don't be still
Be swift while the iron's hot
Like a avalanche boulder
No one would try to stop
If you want it hard enough
Then you don't need no rocket
One foot in front of the other
To ditch this dying rock
Don't be still
Be swift while the iron's hot
Like a avalanche boulder
No one would try to stop
If you need it you'll be it
And it won't take no jets
One foot in front of the other
To get away from death
Don't be still
Be swift while the iron's hot
Like a avalanche boulder
No one would try to stop
If you want it hard enough
Then you don't need no rocket
One foot in front of the other
To ditch this dying rock
Don't be still
Be swift while the iron's hot
Like a avalanche boulder
No one would try to stop
If you need it you'll be it
And it won't take no jets
One foot in front of the other
