el sancho (ontario) - 2113 (just the beginning) lyrics

(verse 1)
good god, i’m back, and 5 years is a long moment of weakness
but still i rose up from the ashes like a phoenix
what’s up now, where’s the hoverboards and the jet packs
ain’t seen a one, must be the same old setbacks
beautiful despair every place i see
still no cure for the blues or the hiv
smoke clouds in the air hide the evident truth
and dollars are still almighty like evan & bruce
so much is identical and so much is differеnt
entire lives transmitted across a grеat distance
welcome to the digital age
where every last bad decision you made has a visual aid
once you go, there’s no return to the original ways
the first shall be the very last visit you pay
only one thing is the same, i’m bringing the pain
got a place in the kingdom to claim + give it to me now

(chorus)
here we go, here we go on this winding road
and this is just the beginning
plenty more is in store but i’m sure i can take it
hear me now, gonna stand in the promised land
before the world stops spinning
got a long way to go but i know i can make it
(verse 2)
back to basics, kicking out rhythms and things
so i can see better days than citizen king
call up everyone i know, tell ’em set your alarm clocks
they ran and got my microphone up out of the p+wn shop
i came alive to stage a revival for all seasons
hip+hop is in a hyperbolic chamber barely breathing
with record stores dying ups is sure thriving
diamonds jamming in the rough make it hard to hear the sirens
kicked in the door to my old habitat
everything’s gathering dust, and i ain’t havin’ that
and it looks ragged as f+ck, my whole lab is trashed
no matter because i got my anti+swagger back
all i got is this room, a used mixing board
some pens, paper and a copy of liquid swords
came to live out the name, expect the unexpected
this time i’ll get the total package perfected

(chorus)

(verse 3)
once the red light came on, i remained on
lightning never quite struck twice on the same song
for a moment felt like i had a severed arm
regenerated it and used it to pull five alarms
take it, cut it, print it and post it online
with the headline “greatest of most of all time”
now it’s battle of the bands this, open mic that
this time next week i’ll be going right back
i need that like nicotine & smack need addicts
too bad my old lady ain’t exactly ecstatic
trippin’ that i’m spending too much time on my mic sk!lls
all i’m trying to do is pay the hydro and light bills
even so, i won’t resist the urge to shine
or walk around feeling as if the world is mine
you can catch me around town, building by the ballot
cause one brick on the ground can turn into a palace
(chorus)
