Been in Lockdown since day one
Where've the days gone?
doing standups with my joggers on
took a 5 minute warning to wake up
took a whole extra hour to make lunch
I'm stuck in the house playing games man,
I think I need something to take up
man I think I need something to change up
I think I need something to...
I need to something do with my time
can't be shooting at hoops, that's commiting a crime (it is)
shout out to marcus for hosting the bake offs,
can't lie making yule logs a hell of a vibe. (it is)
And David and Sasha I'm sorry,
I know you've been waiting on me and I promise I'll try (oops)
last year was not in the script
not even a bit
and I know that I'm just not the type
to get up at 4 and then go for a run!
there's people in lockdown that do this for fun?!
there's people in lockdown that actually finish at 5
and still head out for walks in the sun?!
couldn't be me, I'm as slow as they come
finish at 8, and I know that I'm done
maybe I'll cook up a quick easy meal
but more likely I'll order a pizza for one
like watchu’ know about
doms cocktails, black out
pull pool racks out
get values boxed like pacquiao
VAR when tasks get out of scope
Redux that, might just give ‘em some hope
follow up with the hooks, might just have ‘em on ropes (KO!)
i'm still out here trying to take GME straight to the moon
(it crashed?! oh my days I'm a fool)
at least I can still go to cancun?
wait what?!
We missed out on Hard Rock hotel?
no way!
(might have something to do with COVID)
you don't say!
and it’s looking peak this year
At this rate I might have to wait till next may!
How many console logs I left back there? (yikes)
Speedrunners how I'm landing hooks like "get back here!"
Surprised you got hit by ant's falcon down air?
bro, you're def not from round here
(and RapSong2 didn't make it in time
I guess that's fine
maybe next year I'll perform it live
I definitely won't)

TTBT has some of my favorite songs written by The Mechs. Iphis is my personal favorite due to its ties with Greek Mythology, but it's definitely an album I have on repeat constantly. yumeinati
