Hieroglyphs Lyrics by Miles Better

The Year That Never Happened

2020

[Verse 1]
Dot dot dot, it's from the floor upwards
All bubbles will puncture in a boom & bust culture
We will never nurture the seeds of the future
Prudent investment in this capitalist venture
No friends, no family, no connections at all
Loneliness is the richest man in the world
Alien in the nation before the fall
Self-isolate and watch madness unfurl
‘cause History repeats, as tragedy then farce
And here we are, in the eye of the storm
Batten down the hatchets in your toilet paper fort
Rolling news reports, the end times will be televised
Freudian algorithms intensify
Gies corona, hold the lime disease please
Tombs enshrine hieroglyphs of Miles Better growing trees
One bird in the hands, two fish drowning in the stream
Notifications are muted, no bells ringing on me
I’ll ring the alarm on emcees that have more PR than they have bars
[Refrain]
And the dust settles
Maybe it's inevitable
Remove all the variables
Is what you do really…
[Verse 2]
The credible hulk, never the small matters
Mind deals in bulk
About to go Shug Mode, reeking like skunk
Send all my worst enemies blessings and Love
My pen is so definite up
Spin records so reckless, go deaf in the club
Pressure like heads stuck in front of a sub
My wingman Icarus gets burnt to dust
So hyped that my rangers face neighbours
Gonna be raging, mate
Yeah say your prayers, when I hit the spacebar
You're not in the blast radius
Glass raining from broken windows
My theory’s folk profit in this broken system
So it's not a hopeless mission to crack open
The clutched fists where the cash is sitting
I'm sick of being sat in any class I'm in
Earning a masters in shit that don't matter
In a cataclysm, I just came to rap my lyrics
Stick around long enough
To catch the kids up on Hip-Hop's vision
Tripping ‘cause the pillars of the temple so neglected
Myths and Legends perish
Without a mention in press, but
Culture at its roots is always DIY
And by the time it comes to consume it
It's all just advertising
[Refrain]
And the dust Settles
Maybe It's Inevitable
Remove all the variables
Is what you do really credible?
