Sisyphus II

Ibrahim

5

I′ve been warpin through the fourth dimension,

With no more to explore left

Toured each wormhole and vortex on my quest to just thwart deathA thousand ways to die, be it cardiac or cancer

I travel time in hopes that some forgotten god will have the answer

I've traversed the valley of death′s shadow searchin for Baphomet

In caverns where Apollo slept, I'm trackin down Nyarlathotep

Read some chapters next to blasphemous statues from magic texts

Only two things are certain and I ain't paid my taxes yet

I′ve planned to see a glimpse of Panacea to bewitch her

Intoxicatin mixtures of Rolling Rock and youth elixir

Each time I might′ve died, I rewind the time five days

Tryna skirt my demise and escape my divine fate

Encased in ancient Cenozoic ice - twice - but I melted

The helmet of Hades I sheltered myself in's just a relic

Stopped by Mephistopheles - got lost in his home

Called up Yamaraja′s phone and made philosopher's stones

On a first name basis with Chernabog, I′ve turned the clock

And urged Pandora to burn the box but it didn't work so hot

Got an ankh in my pocket, an ouroboros tattoo

Hoarded horcruxes, and I′ve sipped primordial soup

Implored the Four Horsemen to not be the mortal I was prior

Sought out Orpheus but unfortunately just found a lyre

Did business with shinigami, and still continue clueless

Though I've interviewed Methuselah, listened to Anubis

And been to every festival of death collecting talismans

I've bribed Azrael to forget me and questioned Lazarus

Got sacrilegious amulets and bracelets next to

Chained up phoenixes I ensared and experiment on in my basement

And at this rate I fear I′ve tried to find a cure in vain

Every year I age will disappear in time like tears in rain

But I′ve been here and there and I'll endure until my quest′s complete

And desperately resist destiny as long as there's breath in me

Sisyphus

Steady rolling boulders up the summit

Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em plummet

Yes I′m sisyphus

Static balance pebbles on the brink

Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em sink

Sisyphus

Steady rolling boulders up the summit

Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em plummet

Yes I'm sisyphus

Static balance pebbles on the brink

Sunday sundown watch em settle, monday sunup, watch em sink
