the owl prince - finding ego lyrics

what am i, but two eyes?
comin’ out from between two thighs
just a mind
water brain into conscious wine
i don’t know if i decide
to this body, i just abide
i’m everywhere, but only face one side
i’m software, but i cannot find
what it is that makes me, me
i guess i’m just my memories
moments i freeze
pressing pause on this percept stream
stitching frames into what it means
but i’m losing sight of the scenes i’ve seen
losing “me” to my own slipstream
so what’s left? when my bank is void of tenants?
i guess, forgetting frees me up for the present
it’s just the classic “save or spend?”, “flow or pen?”
to be present, i must attend
and just be me
so let me be

i gotta find my ego
lost it so many times, i’m like… where’d the me go?
oh, brother where art though? mi amigo
i gotta find my ego
gotta find my ego. i just hid it in the owl prince
had a vision i’d k!ll the game. haven’t had a doubt since
takin’ flight from the scene and i’m not leavin’ any prints
what is it that i gotta do to get you all convinced?
i’ll put my head in the ground so ya’ll don’t exist
i can do it cause i am the one true solipsist
i’ve just been busy planting seeds for trees with shade i’ll never sit in
i’ve been busy enchanting the feeling to fade that i’ll never fit in
but now the only ls i take are followed by an s and d
my game don’t stop. gme
i deviate the standard— there’s no one like me
d+mn, i guess you coulda spit that line to me
but if you wanna walk a mile in my shoes
better stack ten socks and orthopedics to diffuse
the pressure of the gravity that i use to infuse
a sermon sure to determine that i’m filling the pews with truth
these days, that makes me an iconoclast
so gimme the veneration first so my icon lasts

i gotta find my ego
lost it so many times, i’m like… where’d the me go?
oh brother where art though? mi amigo
i gotta find my ego

to be is not to be
that is the answer
awareness of self spreads the ego like a cancer
i’ve got a k!ller question: are we human or dancer?
cause i feel like my own ancestor
with how the devil and god are always raging inside me
with how it’s like evil and good are also always beside me
perched upon my shoulder, with access to my hearing
telling me: the same sublime leads to insight and fearing
and that you’re here then you’re not
on this pale blue dot
you’re here
then you’re not
on this pale blue dot
so i lose myself to the ether
dissolve my bounds to the void, in hopes that i meet her
it’s why i go to sleep to k!ll myself
wake up, put the old me on the shelf
till i go no mind, mu+shin
no ego bruisin’
