Alright, let's pick apart "Adult Swim" cause there is some GOOD stuff in there. What are your favorite lines/ideas in the song? What makes it stand out to you?
The lyrical genius of this song is crazy. I love the line:
"This man's on fire", I can't pretend I'm not talented
For me to fake humble's a corny way to be arrogant."
It describes Jon so well. We gotta know what we got and not be afraid to use it to do great things.
Also any thoughts on the hyperbolic time chamber line? hahaJefferson Murdock

“If they don't feel your thoughts, start dreaming in braille
They'll try to sell you short 'cause their dreams are for sale”to me is saying people who don’t get you/your thoughts and dreams aren’t worth it because they’re just insecure? (selling you short) i guess over their own dreams failing. that’s why he says cause their dreams are for sale. they maybe aren’t pursuing them or gave up so you gotta think different (in braille) and don’t sell your dreams for nothin.

“Jesus was instrumental in blessing my mental
Every time I drove a car, could've twisted the metal“jesus blessed him to be so talented, and protect him from things like car accidents.
i love these lyrics because it’s damn true and not talked about enough in songs like this

@GabbyW0205 Yeah, saying to dream in brail is the coolest way to say dream differently than others!

Also any thoughts on the hyperbolic time chamber line? haha@Jefferson-M there’s WAYYYY to much to choose in there damn, but “I’m on a island where opioids go to rich kids, then they pass away that’s called death over the privileged” will NEVER not be just absolutely WIIILLLD to me also shouts to shouts to the “ I just create for the truly gifted of adolescence” and “red bottoms for baboons and radishes” loool. Also gotta throw some respect on that all because of Jesus transition

@GabbyW0205 DUUUDE I literally was going to then I started reading through the lyrics and I would just repost the whole song, it feels so self centered(for lack of a batter term rn) to say but the whole song just feels written for my life. It’s so profound from east of the coast, God played the song, only played the record for his wife sometimes, once got an offer
From Lucifer's daughter to bow to the god, keep his verses sharper than a knife, worn, not a hero who’s torn, he just needed saving from himself, I’ll keep going there’s so much I wanted to include here I didn’t but I’m yapping lool just such a powerful songBoy Mystic raised from the Wilkins baby

@Zacwac everytime I hear that line, I get chills up my spine
"this is a official apology from beautiful mind, we're sorry, if we're going ohveryorhed..."

all the DBZ references!! sorta unrelated but jon was what got me into anime (heard the line ‘she knows more than me about dragon ball z’ on ‘wutup snow’ and it changed my life lmao) so it was nice to hear all the references on adult swim and the fact that THE christopher sabat actually voiced the lines is insane
-
let's not forget "it's not a mystery to be dekota fanning yourself, this man's on fire" that flew over my head when I first heard it
then you got "we just erase heros, I stan lee-eeah Remini, he thee queens and kings, my bars breathe LeBron's kia..." jon pen game is not to be messed with
"this is a official apology from beautiful mind, we're sorry, if we're going ohveryorhed..."
