PERSISTENCE

[Intro: Salvador Dalí]
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"

[Verse: Lil Ugly Mane]
Funny how the hours stretch and melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory
Everything is very temporary except decisions
Just a navigation of this future I envisioned
Humoring these people that're too stupid to be living
An arbitrary figment, a movement that I never was
Obvious when people seem different than the rest of us, or think less of us
Only hoes I care about, pumping in the pipe fumes
Car running, windows up, hoping I'ma die soon
Night time, eyes dilate bigger than bike tubes
That's the reason that I stay up past the sunset
"I liked your record! Where's the new one? Is it done yet?"
Problems that I run from, impossible to sublet
You don't want 'em either, there's a fever in the subtext
Boiled all the mercury, questioned what it's worth to me
Hard liquor, fire breath, slurred dialect
In the mist like Bix Beiderbecke with overdose side effects
Probably take a Prilosec and try to get some rest
Cut the Midas fingers off and never sign a check
"What about your future?" I-D-G-A-F
World so cold I can see they breath
Feeling like distance is a bitch to express
Pissing upstream when your dick is erect
Or when you're picking up steam and get a fist in the chest
[Chorus: Lil Ugly Mane]
I'm dead meat, I'm dead weight
Dragging my body home in my chin strength
Probably never make it home again at this pace
Wakin' the Devil up 'cause I've been staying at his place
I'm dead meat, I'm dead weight
Dragging my body home in my chin strength
Probably never make it home again at this pace
Wakin' the Devil up 'cause I've been staying at his place
I'm dead meat, I'm dead weight
Dragging my body home in my chin strength
Probably never make it home again at this pace
Wakin' the Devil up 'cause I've been staying at his place
I'm dead meat, I'm dead weight
Dragging my body home in my chin strength
Probably never make it home again at this pace
Wakin' the Devil up 'cause I've been staying at his place

[Outro: Lil Ugly Mane & Salvador Dalí]
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory, persistence of a memory
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory, persistence of a memory
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory, persistence of a memory
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory
Funny how the hours stretch, melt away my empathy
Persistence of a memory, persistence of a memory
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
"—this melancholy"
"—and melancholy—"
