earthly. from Orbit by Norf
At the end of the day, after all the songs about space as a metaphor to escape, I am a earthling after all.

Lyrics
Rapping is hard because I don't like to boast
the only kind of beef that I really like is roast
I need extra mayo, but never no mustard
you'll gawk at the proper sandwiches that I muster
I take a shot of jack for my Tennessee heritage
love my city, Green Hills to Hermitage
aw hell, I'll even throw in Brentwood
I'll be there someday if my money is spent good
but my basic ass wastes it all on starbucks
buy me a latte if you're feeling star struck
but please for real, my bank account is sinking
because I buy shit that I'm not needing
but I need it more than anyone knows
cause' my car is fine, but it's a bumpy road
and here we go again, back to the jack
it reminds me of home and it helps me relax
and I can't help the way that I often react
because I am the only one who raps on these tracks
perfection is all of one's perception
collaboration helps avoid obsession
that's why my catalog is so small
because I've held it too close for way too long
I've finally learned that I'm only human
new things will help me avoid confusion
I'm only earthly
I'm only earthly
I'm only earthly
some acts that I commit are very self-destructive
I feel like everything I do is non-productive
constantly clenching my teeth so tightly
because of the things that stress me nightly
The things I say indicate that I'm mighty
and if you oppose that idea then fight me
I like to think that I am as tough as the avatar
but in reality I'm just in line at the salad bar
It just goes to show I'm not what I think
and when you look me in the eyes, it makes me sink
we had a conversation for an hour or two
and I just sat in my car after thinking it thru
Am I simply ennamoured by unattainable?
or is the way you make me feel sustainable?
but either way I know that I'm gonna pursue it
yeah, even tho I know that I really shouldn't do it
and in the end when our waves come together, crashing
I wonder if this will be worth all of the passion
and whether or not it turns out that I am worthy
at the end of it all I'm only
I'm only earthly
I'm only earthly
I'm only earthly
