Welcome Home Warrior (feat. Aesop Rock)

Calling all cyber rat race escape artists to the clearing
Hear ye how the synth wind whispers
As endearing as the jacked on past you've all run from
Down in the doldrums grabbing hold as if a dungeon
Guess they say it's of the mind
Well stationed merely paces from the places where online
Is worshiped you will find an infinitely greener pasture
A path through the woods can lead you back to a past
When everything was really good except the dragons
But that's what the knights are for
Gallantry to fight the war precisely
You can make your might decisive
More importantly, bust out the chainmail
Damn, that looks badass
The lore is the main sale
Comeback for the grab bag of skins, missions and motifs
That you can go and get
A damsel in distress might show a tit
A man can know his flesh and go and sit and contemplate his fantasies
Who knew everything could be so easy?

You know this is where you must belong
Listen to your arteries
Don't the chambers echo out this song?
It's a part of you
Even though you've been apart too long
It's been calling you
Just answer the call and all the rest of it will follow you
Wrap yourself in all of you
And in time, time will honor all you do
Welcome home, warrior
Everyone is proud of you
Welcome home, warrior
Everyone is proud of you (everyone is proud of me)

Ten-hup, ten ton tuffy
In the red-rum, red-rum
Punk's not dead, but
Rebel to rebel, I'm bell rung and out-radicaled
Help me to the breadcrumbs, make it look natural
Came to the nexus a meddlesome little tadpole
Back when nature and civilization seemed compatible
Optimistic infancy to middle seat infinity
To citizens that splinter in our roving gangs of infantry
And weapon-toting soldiers built like Charlie Brown's Christmas tree
Really you're just in it for the thrill of it was him or me
Jesus, I could pinch your cheeks
Kidding, that's a gross way to live
Where division make the average bow tie spin
I'm from a hundred million years of letting low tide win
Replacing window panes with photographs of foliage
Maybe a lone pine poking through a snow-lined ridge
My water lilies on a light box glow like this
That's lo-fi shit
Faux plants never better once
I learned to smell the flowers through an overhead projector like (sniff)
Smells like drywall, whisper of black mold, subtle hint of lightbulb
Sunk into the sofa, blowing kisses on a dice roll
Roll dice like a flying kick to your side-scroll
Home is where the ohm is
Fire on four sides
I ain’t even notice, yo

You know this is where you must belong
Listen to your arteries
Don't the chambers echo out this song?
It's a part of you
Even though you've been apart too long
It's been calling you
Just answer the call and all the rest of it will follow you
Wrap yourself in all of you
And in time, time will honor all you do
Welcome home, warrior
Everyone is proud of you
Welcome home, warrior
Everyone is proud of you

Your dedication to shaping the day-to-day to a place
That matches the pixel congregation you pray to
Definitely makes you one of the tribe
There's a roll call wall it's a vibe
Built out of images of interlocking crystals
Issued one for everyone who arrives
Don't mean to spoil any kind of surprise
But guess what, brother, you're next
Step up, test the water
Bet it almost feels wet
There's several swimming skins
See if you can collect the whole set
The world you're living in is sketched by people who disrespect
Your expertise, you're an artiste, so grateful now to direct
You to a piece of music you should select
Your hero's theme, it can play for you every time you connect
You must be anxious now to start on your quest
Text the head of operation, she can help you if you've got any questions
Don't be alarmed should your call redirect
You'll be answered in a sec
The customer service is some of the best
