Oblivion
B.a.stille Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah
G Y, B
Oblivion, oblivion, oblivion
Rap game to oblivion

Ay, this hard as obsidian, Drum feds my affiliates
Space bound like iridium, no cap like the pyramids
Rotate the meridian, know the truth insidious
We about to go simian take the rap game to oblivion
Ay yeah, rap game to oblivion
Ay yeah, rap game to oblivion
Yeah, don't act so oblivious
This here for millennials, impact the millennium

Hip hop quadrivium, body mod out of minerals
Long sought resilience, on stage perform miracles
Blank stares so hideous, see them out my peripherals
You live vicarious, in tune through stereos
We connect like periods, intervene each interval
Prospect nefarious we protect these principles
Passed from Lumerians that esoteric pentacle
Crowd full of initiates, coming back like perennials
Each play a residual, platform so practical
Emcee a ritual, paramount with the capital
Your script so minuscule you make a play theatrical
Got Your Back the Imperial, Bobby Lee the ambassador, look

This hard as obsidian, drum feds my affiliates
Space bound like iridium, no cap like the pyramids
Rotate the meridian, know the truth insidious
We about to go simian take the rap game to oblivion
Ay yeah, Rap game to oblivion
Ay yeah, Rap game to oblivion
Yeah, don't act so oblivious
Impact the millennium oblivian oblivian oblivia

So who want to be a millionaire? These days I see teen age sensations popping up everywhere
Off of the internet all of its sitting there I cannot sit in my Desk n chair
I'm going digital I flip the script like reciprocals I got to get a share
I heard the meek will inherit, it could be easy N careless
Unless if you want to demerit you will not rid me of leverage
Me and the game getting' married we traded vowels in the cemetery
Killed it proceeded to bury, dig it? I'm lifted as caskets you carry
Its obvious that your oblivious I'm the original, yeah
Key Blade that Oblivion
Elder Scroll IV: Oblivion, Heath Ledger when I'm serious
Key Blade that Oblivion, Elder Scroll IV: Oblivion
Tom Cruise in Oblivion, this the world that we living in ay

This hard as obsidian, Drum Feds my affiliates
Space bound like iridium, no cap like the pyramids
Rotate the meridian, know the truth insidious
We about to go simian take the rap game to oblivion
Ay yeah, rap game to oblivion
Ay yeah, take the rap game to oblivion




Don't act so oblivious, impact the millennium

When you fall asleep with your head upon my shoulder
When you're in my arms but you've gone somewhere deeper
Are you going to age with grace?
Are you going to age without mistakes?
Are you going to age with grace?
Only to wake and hide your face
When oblivion is calling out your name
You always take it further than I ever can
When you play it hard, and I try to follow you, there
It's not about control, but I turn back when I see where you go
Are you going to age with grace?
Are you going to leave a path to trace?
When oblivion is calling out your name
You always take it further than I ever can
When oblivion is calling out your name
You always take it further than I ever can

When you fall asleep
With your head
Upon my shoulder
When you're in my arms
But you've gone somewhere deeper
Are you going to age with grace?
Are you going to age without mistakes
Are you going to age with grace?
Or only to wake and hide your face
Well, oh, oblivion
Is calling out your name
You always take it further
Than I ever can
When you play it harder
And I try to follow you there
It's not about control
But I turn back when I see where you go
Are you going to age with grace?
Are you going to leave a path to trace?
But, oblivion
Is calling out your name
You always take it further
Than I ever can
When oblivion
Is calling out your name
You always take it further
Than I ever can
