| | I was feeling a little depressed, so I decided to write a rap. This is probably my best work to date. I feel much better now--nothing like (re)discovering that you're awesome to make you feel better. I'm not one to toot my own horn, but I may just be the greatest rapper ever. Tight rhymes, creative use of alliteration, back to back references to wave-particle duality and Plato's allegory of the cave... what more could you want? So far, I like rapping it over the beat to Mobb Deep's "Quiet Storm".
Nihilist-kissed
Oh ho!
Here’s come the nihilist,
Value
dissipates, lost, dissolved into the mist
The spectre
of naught, undoing all you’re wrought
For being
caught will cost you notions of ‘ought’
Cause in her
clenched fist, no way to resist
There
nothing left for you, oh lost nihilist-kissed
Sometime,
when I feel empty inside
I want to
hide, want to slide into a sleep
I want to
weep, no I want to want to weep
Want feel
like life’s something precious to keep
But in the
end death comes to those who wait
Forecast a
final fate that seems to sedate
That seems
to negate, life’s value and weight
Life so
light, it may as well be a wave
No more
than shadows on the back of a cave
When the
end is a grave, we might as well be in it
No use
being brave, because in the limit
We end up
the same, back from whence we came
It’s no use
to complain, or wallow in shame
When we’re
done the game, there’s nothing left to blame
Even if the
interim’s drab dystopic or lame
Oh ho!
Here’s come the nihilist,
Value
dissipates, lost, dissolved into the mist
The spectre
of naught, undoing all you’re wrought
For being
caught will cost you notions of ‘ought’
Cause in her clenched
fist, no way to resist
There
nothing left for you, oh lost nihilist-kissed |
