Flipper Man
05:05

Flipping in the air. He was flipping sticks. The story goes...
Flipper man once said to me "Boy, sometimes you do, but ya don't wanna"
Top shelf excellence. He was full of it. No doubt about that.
Nothing in this world, nothing could shake his boots or so it seemed.
As he stands on the edge of absolution, he's ready to meet his maker. The current path is narrow.
Takes a good look back at what was left behind. Contradictions are in season. It's all confusion ahead.

Dunning-Kruger

Head down. I can't look up. Too afraid of what I might see. Self doubt. That's all me. Epitome of insecurity.
Yap, yap, yap and yap. Loud words are keeping me trapped.
Peace seems out of reach. The content just want to preach and they don't fancy free thought. They would rather have you head down and too afraid with self doubt. Like me.
Yap, yap, yap and yap. Loud words are keeping me trapped.
Peace seems out of reach. The content just want to preach. They're making moves to mute, but not this time.

No Play
04:35
|

Stepping closer towards the void. No escaping the hand that has been dealt. There's no play.
Yet I wake up everyday hoping to find the method to this game, but I know there's no play. No play.
Rigged won't work. Rigged won't pick.
It is such a shame to see some still being fed into this bloodsucking scheme. I refuse to believe.
In the screen.
In the lines.
Delete all of them.
Even mine.
Cause I know, I know, I know... there's no play.
It is such a shame to see some still being fed into this bloodsucking scheme. I can't believe.

Cornfield Blues
03:17
|

It won't set me free, I must let go. These cornfield blues, I must let go.
Lost in the abstract of my busy mind. Will I ever seem to have the time? Distant memories that haunt my dreams at night, I can't believe that I've let them in again.
"Don't lose sight, man. You can get through. Do what you were expected to do. Giving up, it just isn't you. Shake it off and let it bloom into a world that erases fear. The pain can blind your view, so don't get near. Strip it all away. Restart with a different pace and don't ever look back. Take it from me, I've played the victim too. The cons will keep adding up, but it's up to you. Sink or swim, what will you do? Withstand the current or drown underneath?"

Big Personality
05:13
|

Things are starting to become clear now. The mysteries of the "What if?" and "Why not?" have all been solved. The riddle wasn't that hard to seek out, ya know. This power that I've received helps me create illusions of big personalities.
Turn this thing up. I don't think I'm loud enough. Soon you'll see how naive I can really be. To think anyone would ever listen to me...
I said things were clear before last time, right? Looking pretty ironic right about now, huh? It's apparent that I'm always torn between winning and losing. I guess it'll make sense eventually. As I keep convincing these big personalities.
Turn this thing up. I don't think I'm loud enough. Soon you'll see how naive I can really be. To think anyone would ever listen to me... Listen to a big personality.
There's that familiar sound, empowering me now. I never wanted this kind of attention, but I can't abandon my love for these big personalities.
