Earl Sweatshirt & Action Bronson - "Warlord Leather"

I was born on February 24th, 1970
The day I was delivered
They said I would build a legacy
Picture me with influence
That last generations
I was made out of love to
Keep you happy and educated
The first three letters of
The alphabet my name
I made you laugh, I made you dance
I made you sing
I been around the world and back
You recorded my almanac
So dearly way before the fact
Me and pops was estranged
My father was a public figure
Bigger than life
Lived as a winner, on stages alike
Rivers of people surely united
Just to see our bond
Time carried on, that was a common thread
My perfect father had many flaws
Still they moved they legs and
Shook they heads in unison
He had more children, I was the oldest
We always played with each other
'fore they ruined 'em
He told me his personal secrets
Childhood catching on beatings
Sexually touched and abused
Never seen life in a school
The price of being iconic
Was demonic and screwed
I stood on stage and had to
Watch my father on the news
Stress on the head of my spirit
I was lost and confused
I knew both sides of the story, but still
I couldn't choose see, it was more than
Humiliation and bein' sued
They crucified my affiliation for
Points to prove
And now my purpose for livin'
Makes no difference to you
My total existence was for
Makin' a smiling move
They said that I'll live forever
But the moment he died
More accusations arrived i had to die too
I remember takin' my first
Breath August 28th, 1963
The whole nation had saved the day
I made it on TV
My come out was a standing ova'
The crowd in disbelief
How could a group of words be so great?
Designed to make you think
Races and faces embracin' my
Conscience in letter form
How gracious was I speakin' on
Changes once outside the norm?
The person responsible, my creator
He never conformed or used hatred
To form mass retaliation
Watch him perform with conviction
Two hundred and fifty thousand souls
Left they homes to listen
I gather his thoughts in abundance
Made to complete the mission
His life became heroic, then tables turned
My creator stripped from being a
Poet because he yearned
Other women, infidelity stricken
I can't say he was perfect
It made me nervous
They tear him down and forget me
I prayed that I survived in
The midst of the controversy
How many lives'll fall on deaf
Ears if I'm not worthy?
I won't justify his personal problems
That's not my job
I was only born to make sure
Your children can play outside
And I imagine the other demons
He hid before he died
If they came to surface
This dream probably won't be alive
Because of you
I was born in paranoia, it's poison for us
We can't create with joyous ambition
We're out of luck the critics formed a new
Coalition and huddled up
The non-creators are now elated
And out of touch
Why can't you gladly appreciate
The influence we give?
Stop starin' at me disgusted
My substance made sure you'd lived
You want the head of the messenger
And the history from him
Which eventually takes away from
The good you accustom
Think of a life without the
Likes of imagination that's prosperin'
The bodies that you consider genius
You like to box 'em in
The great debaters and thinkers
They gave you a voice
Why can't you prosecute the crimes and
Not the thoughts I employ?
Because your better judgement will always
Look down on me
But if I recollect how we connect
You'll account on me
I got a theory that most of
Y'all won't allow to see it goes like this
Talent doesn't choose morality
See, if Daniel Hale was a killer
Would you not want a heart?
If Carl Benz was a racist
Would you stop driving cars?
I can't help we jump in these bodies
And you called them a God
Just know the Earth is just a
Rock without the voices of art
Sincerely yours

1200 Ways

twelve hundred ways that you showed me
how i can be the one for you and still be the old me
a pair of you and a mixer, trinity holy,
in your arms is where i want to rest solely

the video of you getting down on a kitchen table
turned me on as a sprung teenager
rugged yet sleek in figure,
built tough on the bottom and silver on top, 
you were magnetic not a belt drive
should i go at 33 or 45,
spinning platter like a mirror ball on a stage live
i wanted to get to know you inside and out
turned me into somebody that wants to feel you
everyday in my sight, even when i sleep tight
i can picture you in my dreams alright only
if i could get my hands on a set, good night

(hook)

over the years, i watched you grow up
mark2, a young model when I first met you
when we got close you let me pick your brain
flipped you over and you didn't complain
i was amazed how you were so grounded, 
touched your colorful wires, and sounds bled,
thin like capillaries, burned circuit I replaced it
soldered ends that were meant to be
copious amount of screws on the wooden floor
I know you let me in where others wouldn't tour
around like some clowns but you knew that I'm legit
sealed you up and now you're ready for the hits

i heard they stopped making you a while ago
cut you off the assembly, line and in catalogs and still strongly
pursued on the market like online dating,
servicing billion of records that are waiting to be slapped on
and the needle to be played and be scratched on
like all digi everything you gotta be kidding me, right
how can they replace thee?
i mean a moving disc with a piece of plastic,
putting a scooter ahead of a sedan,
the young guns don't know any better cuz
once they get to spend a day with you, hot damn

(hook)



1200通り、君は見せてくれた
僕が君のオンリーになって、僕のままでいれるって
君のペアとミキサーは、三位一体
君のアームの中でゆっくりと休みたい

キッチンのテーブルの上で激しくしている君を見て
まだ10代の青い僕は発情した
頑丈なのにスタイル抜群
ボトムはタフで、トップはシルバー
君はマグネティックでベルトドライブじゃなかった
33か45で行こうか迷う
生の舞台でミラーボールみたいに回るプラッター
君の中の隅々まで知りたくなった
君を近くに感じたい人になってしまった
毎日眺めて、ぐっすり眠っている間も
君の姿が夢に出て来るよ
ただ、まだ君のセットに手が届かないんだ、おやすみ



何年か経って、君が成長するのを観察していた
マーク2、出会った時はまだ若いモデルだった
親しくなって、考えている事を教えてくれた
君を裏返しても文句を言わなかった
君は地に足が着いていて
色とりどりのワイヤーを触ると、音が漏れた
毛細血管のように細く、焼けた回路を交換した
定められた端と端をハンダで付けた
木の床に散らばった無数のネジ
入れてくれた場所は、他の人はツアーできない
ピエロみたいに遊び人じゃなくて僕は真面目さ
蓋を閉めて、君はヒット曲の準備万端さ



しばらく前に、君が生産停止になったって聞いたよ
組立ラインから外されて、カタログから消えても
まだマーケットでは強い人気、オンラインのデートみたい
何億ものレコードが君がかけてくれるのを待っている
針を落として、スクラッチしてくれるのを
すべてデジタル化って、冗談だろ？
どうやって、君の代わりが出来るんだ？
動いているディスクを、プラスチックのパーツで交換なんて
セダンよりも原付を選んでるようなもんだ
若い子達は何も分かってない、でも
君と一日だけ過ごしたら、凄い事になるよ
