Commissioned by Nike, All Day: Nike+ Original Run is an original and exclusive composition written and performed by Aesop Rock. The title "All Day" refers to the experience inspired by the 45-minute continuous mix of shifting musical landscapes, written specifically for the runner and the journey taken within their own imagination. "I wanted to create something that evolved enough that the sound was constantly fresh and attractive, as if the runner were moving through a set of differing cities or landscape."

Aesop Rock - All Day Nike+ Original Run (Continuous Mix)

        I will

    	Tie em up in nooses 

	Drag em to the gallows 

	Stealers of the light 

 	That protect us from the shadows 


	Such foolish thoughts 

	Thats what'd they think
	 
	When he would speak 

	As he'd precede to pick apart 

	The price and cost 

	So often he felt lost 

	Of course he knew
	
	He was the only one to change it 

	 Without getting soft 

	That shouldn't matter 

	What's that chatter 

	In his head 

	That vial tone 

	Is there a voice?
	
	Who makes the choice
	
	 Why can't he turn it off? 

	 In the midst of all his questions 
	
	He learns of filthy pit falls

	And regression


	How clever boy. 

	You seem to deem yourself a man 

	Only cutting off my hand 

	While a Croc patrols the land 

	Banish me to sea 

	Though he knows deep down 

	He will never truly flee 

	Prepared as he will ever be 


	For in my guts, sits a paranoia waiting to be swept away by the steps of dancing dreamers 


	Has they steady course 

	He shows no remorse 

	Though the symptoms of his agony 

	Radiate and reinforce
	
	How time is short 

	And its only just a matter now 

	Before they reach the shore  

	Who would have guessed

	Such a bloody mess

	Would inflict an age of misery 

	Only to be carried out upon

	A burdened chest 

	Everythings a test 

	A twist of more or less 

	In every other breath 

	
	There is no captain now 

	There was no captain then 

	There is only fear upon suspense 

	Hoping it all makes sense 
	
	Broken ties and lies 

	Are nothing to be followed short 

	Pull your self away 

	If you feel that you are not the sort 

	Nobody hears a thought 

	When it remains in mind 

	No body sees the truth 

	When your aiming blind 

	Well then men 

	Under the clothing of beasts 

	We will never retreat 

	
	I will

    	Tie em up in nooses 

	Drag em to the gallows 

	Stealers of the light 

 	That protect us from the shadows 

	
	Oh, men...

	We never knew any better 

	
	Blame it on the weather 

	Label it forever 

	When we reach the sky 

	Fly, high until they spell 

	Surrender 


	No leader is he

	Only another contender 

	   
	  
	
	In a clash of swords 

	Of liquid form 

	A waterfall of battle 

	Leads the blood to sea 

	As it erodes 

	The pearly shores 

	
	In the Captains Quarters 

	Frustration grows intensely 

	Lost Boys surrounding 

	All his borders 

	He must rid the boy himself 

	Right-handed for the slaughter 

	Grabs a pistol off the shelf 

	Dagger in his belt 

	He knows the boy is here 

	His presence can be felt 

	He draws his blade

	Kicks  the door 
	
	Eye meets eye 

	Their faces melt 

	
	Well equipped 

	with equal skill

	They bent blades

	Around the wheel

	The Croc below 

	Patiently awaiting

	To finish off 

	His meal 

	Given the circumstance 

	He may just get his chance 

	The Captain sees the beast 

	 And slips at first glance 

	Hanging by a hook 

	The boy stands over top 
	
	He contemplates 

	Weather he should help him up 

	Or help him drop

	He looks into his eyes 

	He knows where he should stop

	He hears a scream 

	Then hears a splash 

	Silenced by the Croc

Professionalism In as much as we have a system down:

1) Drink
2) Argue
3) Record a song
4) Repeat

We have fun doing this.
