This was / still is a feature song with Rah Digga, but the way I wrote and performed the lyrics makes it just as strong as a solo. Icarus hypnotized We fly high! No limits in the skies witness the climb Witless design while we kiss the sublime Winds remiss the time thru the mist and the shine Icarus, sick of this, we glue on feathers
Untethered, we float into blue ether It's true WEATHER, whoever, Kronk pull the lever We fall from the sky, comets gone forever -------------- Going clever, whatever, live with artistry It's SMARTEST see, find your own chemistry Reactions the attractions, follow your passions Distractions will lead to disatisfication Disappointed disjointed, left in freefall Unequal we call caught in time's thrall Rolled up like rice balls all eyes on this Relearn through rebirth with the Goddess Isis So be it, Ammit would eat it Time keeps rolling. Don't you feel cheated! Boiling frog unoiled rolling cog Glowing red hot in a grain silo fog Gonna catch like DUST ignite and bust Shake up the future like the covid virus Don't gotta prove your WEALTH to nobody else Love yourself aim high, guard your mental health Yeah... And it's okay to ask for help ---------- Icarus hypnotized We fly high! No limits in the skies witness the climb Witless design while we kiss the sublime Winds remiss the time thru the mist and the shine Icarus, sick of this, we glue on feathers Untethered, we float into blue ether It's true WEATHER, whoever, Kronk pull the lever We fall from the sky, comets gone forever -------------- An Odyssey a mystery, Humankind and history Apostosy Hypothesis, systemic misery Weaponry... Turned against a frienemy A Centipede many hands involved in the treachery The lesson son we all live in the jungle One rule, be cautious and always stay humble While some the they grumble and become Irate When the cookie crumbled there was none on their plate We soar in the sky and challenge our fate We roar, we cry, in an angry state love and pain thunder on like rain Drum chaotic rhythms on your window pane Experience, take leisure serious Don't waste your time on the Supercilious Every second is gold until you turn cold Enjoy the voyage and set your own goals This is Coruscate of The Incomplete Orchestra Soar high young one, soar high!
I can't edit my pieces: There's an extra bar in the rap, it's right here "Yeah... And it's okay to ask for help" that is a fifth bar which is highly abnormal. It's a combination of the feature I was writing alongside to and the beat.

An easy way to mix and participate with this song, is to play the role of the narrator of the story of Daedalus and his son Icarus. You'll notice I used it in my official mixes : https://theincompleteorchestra.bandcamp.com/album/icarus

"Oscar Soul" listen to that one first, it's the original and absolutely my favorite.

By the way, this is not just "making rhymes" : unoiled rolling cog
Glowing red hot in a grain silo fog
Gonna catch like DUST ignite and bust
In a grain silo operation, the rollers are constantly oiled. Grain is HIGHLY combustible, and before I wrote these lyrics I saw a video of a famous *explosion* inside a grain silo when someone forgot to oil a cog.
