drive beats time - the myth of ken lyrics

[verse 1]
used to want to be an archaeologist
i would get busy in the dirt ‘cuz i never had toys
wanted to discover cool sh-t like a scientist
prolly why i never fit in with the boys
they were hittin’ home runs i was in the backfield
makin’ dips in the dirt with my cleat heel
they were bringin’ cute girls to the park
i was tryna excavate my find ‘fore it got dark
grew up, found out, i was way too late to discover
sh-t was already claimed
it was more of a study of eternity past
everything cool done had another man’s name
i moped i cried i pouted
i scoped i spied i routed
i looked to sp-ce for my last resort
and i knew that’d be my fort

[chorus]
born too late to explore the past
i was born too soon to explore the universe
left to myself to restore computers
now i rap and i build what i can to pull the curse
my kids gon’ follow their dreams if it k!lls me
and it might as well do
they’ll see the stars or the bones
my kids gon’ live free how ’bout you

[verse 2]
i stole some bright orange plastic
i wrapped myself in tape
i put tupperware on my head
and i stepped my -ss to the edge of my sp-ce
i looked like a fool but i knew i’d look cool
when i stepped out of challenger 2
be the first tennessean on the moon
and i’d bring back alien ships to prove

[interlude]
i will not stand here and watch the stars fly by
i will join with my people and be the same
i will expunge my own existence until i feel fine
i will lose my sanity to feel sane

[outro]
i’m not afraid of what i’m doing right now (right now)
i’m not afraid of what i might do later (do later)
i’m just afraid of what i never got a chance to
so i’ll show my kids that there is nothing that they can’t do
