Built by Pictures

Built By Pictures - Oddisee[00:00:00]

I was born with small access to big dreams[00:00:20]

And detached homes[00:00:24]

And lazy boy couches were fit thrones that[00:00:24]

Would sit kings[00:00:27]

Lion statues on the fences larger than the castles[00:00:28]

They guarded lawns made the pastures pristine[00:00:30]

A race with the have nots[00:00:34]

Broke but the moat's where the jag's parked[00:00:35]

Doing dirty work but the whips clean[00:00:37]

Notice the jones's[00:00:38]

All of what they have is for the showing even notices[00:00:39]

On doors or for closures[00:00:41]

I'm trying to get income and then some[00:00:42]

Ride around in something the system bumping[00:00:45]

The disk jumping I'm rolling[00:00:47]

A slight high[00:00:49]

From being able to buy what you shouldn't[00:00:50]

But you never knew why[00:00:51]

Never mind this the feeling I've been wanting for time[00:00:53]

Flying blind into a wall strong drawing to shine[00:00:55]

I just looked at the pictures[00:00:58]

Didn't have a manual to build this[00:00:59]

Just assemble it from feeling[00:01:01]

By looking at pictures[00:01:03]

I was given tools meant for building[00:01:04]

With no instruction for the wielding[00:01:06]

But look at the picture[00:01:08]

It ain't even close to the description[00:01:09]

And yet it's working as I wished it[00:01:11]

By looking at pictures[00:01:13]

And even though parts of it are missing[00:01:14]

It's still complete in the depiction[00:01:16]

Started off trying to make a way[00:01:19]

Then I made a wave that made a wage[00:01:21]

That lay to waste the paper chase that I was into race[00:01:23]

But how you even stop this thing[00:01:26]

I never learned so in turn I'ma burn out breaks[00:01:28]

Spend it faster than the churn out makes[00:01:30]

But I'm a phoenix I went from ashes to classes[00:01:32]

Shoebox to plastic[00:01:34]

Credit could buy what ever imagined[00:01:36]

Developing habits I can't kick[00:01:37]

Man I was rocking cleats to a match full of baskets[00:01:39]

Fast break broke the safe trying to bask in[00:01:42]

Sums that wasn't real but ones and nils and they asking[00:01:44]

Debit or credit the latter please[00:01:48]

Climbing into debt without a sweat when it's gradually[00:01:49]

Had to make a couple mistakes that I couldn't erase[00:01:52]

Overdrawn but I turned out great[00:01:55]

I just looked at the pictures[00:01:56]

Didn't have a manual to build this[00:01:58]

Just assemble it from feeling[00:02:00]

By looking at pictures[00:02:02]

I was given tools meant for building[00:02:03]

With no instruction for the wielding[00:02:05]

But look at the picture[00:02:07]

It ain't even close to the description[00:02:08]

And yet it's working as I wished it[00:02:10]

By looking at pictures[00:02:11]

And even though parts of it are missing[00:02:13]

It's still complete in the depiction[00:02:15]

I maneuver by example good or bad[00:02:18]

Triumphs and tramples something I couldn't grasp[00:02:20]

I wouldn't pass[00:02:22]

I would rather struggle assembling what I can do[00:02:23]

Look at that[00:02:25]

Little different but the differences[00:02:27]

Make it what it isn't[00:02:28]

Is is whatever I want to witness[00:02:29]

Behold a vision outside of the city limits[00:02:31]

Where time is more valued than money for[00:02:33]

The spending ascended to deeper things[00:02:35]

Never knew reasoning[00:02:37]

Throwing random spices into life for the seasoning[00:02:38]

Without a silver spoon I couldn't taste what I was prepping[00:02:41]

My guesses made the wooden whip a problem to a question[00:02:43]

Why do my people spend more and have less than[00:02:45]

No seat to eat the meal that I'm responsible for[00:02:48]

Cheffing imagining the window was just a mirror reflection[00:02:50]

I turned the sideline into a seat at the concession[00:02:53]

I just looked at the pictures[00:02:55]

Didn't have a manual to build this[00:02:57]

Just assemble it from feeling[00:02:59]

By looking at pictures[00:03:01]

I was given tools meant for building[00:03:02]

With no instruction for the wielding[00:03:04]

But look at the picture[00:03:05]

It ain't even close to the description[00:03:07]

And yet it's working as I wished it[00:03:08]

By looking at pictures[00:03:10]

And even though parts of it are missing[00:03:11]

It's still complete in the depiction[00:03:13]
