Return
A.F.R Lyrics

For many years, the hack tone wandered
For a long time, the music lacked inspiration and creativity

The crust and crunge saundering, soldering, soldiering
The music was dull and monotonous

In aim of the slice most amiable, until silence
The goal was to create a likable, popular sound, but it ultimately resulted in silence (failure)

Finally, the cough bomber has returned to us
The artist R.A.P. Ferreira has returned with new music that will shock and impress listeners

Chalked it up to the fact I wasn't hackin' it
Blamed the failure of the music on personal shortcomings or lack of skill

If I may quote the atlas
Making a reference to a map or guidebook to illustrate a point

It's too few smiles between here and Minneapolis
There is not much to be happy about or to look forward to

Methodist logic of the sausage party
Referring to conventional beliefs and behaviors that often exclude or marginalize certain groups

Not a pilot, I just take to the sky like I'm Matt Hardy
Not claiming to be an expert or in control, but rather freely exploring creative ideas

This beat remind me of angels turning coat
The music evokes something celestial, but also suggests a dark or ominous undertone

Ruby yachts and burning boats
Evoke vivid imagery of extravagance and destruction

I see many things
The artist has a broad perspective and is observant of the world around them

The line is jammed with callers
Metaphorically speaking, there are many people who want to be heard or who want the artist's attention

First to get cut prolly grew the tallest
Being the first to be eliminated or rejected may indicate a certain level of potential or talent

Off-center bald spot, Rasheed Wallace
Referencing someone who is unique or unconventional, but still respected and accomplished

Comedy of errors, ontological terror
Life is both humorous and terrifying, and can be confusing and chaotic

Tellin' me I don't know what ugly is
Others may try to convince the artist that they lack taste or discernment, but they trust their own judgments and instincts

Black is a function of nothingness
The color black represents emptiness, a lack of meaning or significance

Black is closing your eyes post concussion, it's
Another metaphorical use of 'black' to describe a confused or disoriented state of mind

Black Orpheus, of course it is, of course it is
Referencing a famous movie that explores themes of death, music, and mythology

Finding your life dominated by voices and forces
Feeling like external forces or factors are controlling one's life

The shapes the shoes of horses
The artist is attuned to even the smallest details and sensory experiences

Little ticklish melodies
The artist is inspired and moved by small, subtle moments of beauty or pleasure

When the good ideas are felonies
Suggesting that creative thinking or innovation may be seen as threatening or dangerous to some individuals or institutions

That's called living in a society
Acknowledging that social norms and expectations can limit or discourage original thinking

Perceived impropriety
The belief that something is inappropriate or unacceptable, even if it is not objectively harmful or immoral

Yeah, I know all about it, but I ain't tellin' you nothin'
The artist may have insights or ideas that they choose not to share openly or explicitly

Wake up and smell the muffins
Encouraging others to be more aware of their surroundings and appreciate the small pleasures of life

What did your dough make you
Asking others to reflect on what they have achieved or accomplished in their lives

Finally, finally
An expression of excitement or relief that something has finally happened

Can you even believe it my friends?
Expressing disbelief or wonder at something that has happened

Frinky little MCs must get dissed
Asserting that the artist is superior to or above other musicians who lack originality or creativity

And that's the way it is
A matter-of-fact statement that suggests the artist is confident and unapologetic about their style and approach to music

I'm back up on my oatmeal cookies
Returning to something familiar or comforting after a period of uncertainty or risk-taking

They real old rookies, lousy blues
The artist may be experienced, but still has a lot to learn and improve upon

Lose lookies, few snook me
Others may underestimate the artist or not take them seriously

Hullabaloo, full of cashews
The chaos and noise of everyday life, with a touch of humor

Bullets never as cool
Violence and aggression are never admirable or appealing

Never slid the tassel left
The artist has always followed their own path or marched to their own beat

Didn't have to, impress yourself
One does not need to seek approval or validation from others to feel fulfilled or satisfied

Read the 29th beatitude
Making a biblical reference to assert the importance of humility and non-attachment to worldly success or riches

When one decides to be attitude
Choosing to embrace a particular mindset or lifestyle that may be unconventional or misunderstood by others

Longitudinal accelerance
A scientific term that may be used metaphorically to suggest forward momentum or evolution

Various celebrants
Different people or groups who commemorate or celebrate different things

Soul folks noodling excellence
People who are passionate and skilled at what they do, regardless of whether or not they achieve conventional success

Never not woodshedding
Always practicing and perfecting one's craft, even when there is no immediate reward or recognition

Break the huddle on three
Metaphorically speaking, prepare to take action or make a move together after discussing and strategizing

Yes, I'll keep betting on me
The artist is confident and self-assured, and will continue to believe in themselves despite any obstacles or setbacks
