[Intro: The Neverending Story Sample]
Everyone knew that whoever let the sadness overtake him
Would sink into the swamp
Hi
And the same time, elsewhere in fantasia
A creature of darkness also began his quest

[Verse 1: Navy Blue & Earl Sweatshirt]
Depths of the man that I was from the start
Stay next to the fam, got a place in my heart, chest
Breath on demand
The rest of the plan got scrapped when I landed, invested in arts
I do less when I stretch 'fore I hit the bar
Pull up, Tan Cress' on the shoulder of the coat of arms
Told you we the best 'til we good and gone
Yeah, love shared it was both ours
The same prayer like more dark
Blood in the water when I go to wash
Life sweet when you know the cost
Thousand-yard stare, I was looking sauced
Smoker's cough, ash in the air
Not scared when we send 'em off
That's life, black plight, can't get along
Not alone

[Interlude: Rare 4 Sample]
But there might be one chant

[Verse 2: Earl Sweatshirt & Navy Blue, The Neverending Story Sample]
Tandem remarks, who the fuck playing like the brand isn't strong?
And the globe cold, that the feral hands sitting on
My ass in the throne
We running these checks and balances, on fam
Check sits, dashes at home (I want to go to Africa)
Hard work, callous the palm, that isn't wrong
Soul battered and grown, sadness is gone

[Outro: The Neverending Story Sample, Sun Ra, Unknown Sample]
Everyone knew that whoever let the sadness overtake him
Would sink into the swamp
It's the music of the earth
The music of the sun, and the stars
The music of yourself, vibrating
Yes, you’re music too
You’re all instruments
Everyone's supposed to be playing their part
In this vast arkestry of the cosmos
