Aesop Rock - Bent Life

[mpchead621]

[pkacua]

He is pleasantly fucking insane >=)=<

[DARQIKSKID]

i hate it when people get likes on their comments when all it is,is a line from the track.

[ayl1e]

[MonsterSk8er00]

[mcadamparkmexican]

eyedea aeosop rock and slug destroyed this beat in another song called thorns check it out its pretty legit

[SiddallEHES]

[JLR902]

[TheShellCase]

[sherwood95]

@TheShellCase It's C-Rayz Walz.

[sybergaus]

What's the the beat or instrumental?

[Mittaylor]

I first heard this song yesterday but it's been on my ipod for a year just never listened to it because it wasn't in the pure "aesop rock" artist list. but I got stone on a cliff side admiring the lyrics and beat while staring at the river.

I breath in the problems, exhale solutions

[treesdale112]

@Mittaylor favorite part too

[willingsandrew]

albert einstien of lyricism fuckin amazing never gets old.

[hotrodkimbla]

This gets old after a few times

[blackup12345]

@hotrodkimbla If you can really relate to a song, it doesn't get old, and I don't see how anyone can not relate to this song.

[paulvsusd]

@hotrodkimbla so does yer mom

[hotrodkimbla]

@paulvsusd thats cute

[SicoTime]

@hotrodkimbla i cant dislike your comment more than once :(

[roboman657]

[FeeldahVibe001]

if you like aesop rock's styles and other underground acts check out my songs

[RATMBEYACH]

Damn, I listen to this song everyday!

Yo, if you like Aesop Rock, you'll like us; Newton's 4th Law. Underground Hip-Hop group, on facebook!

[Ston3d42O]

how are you a new rapper and put out an ep? lol

[danceboi112]

aesop is just wow. painting pictures in your mind, making you think, testing your intelligence, giving you great songs. truly is one of the best

[DavidDallaG]

I love Aesop Rock, so dope with his complete own style. I love how he does things his own way and still keeps it honest. I am actually trying to do the same. I am a new rapper who just put out my first ep. I'd love it if you went to my page to check it out and told me your thoughts. Thanks for the time! Take Care!

[willderosier]

@DavidDallaG dont go 2 his profile he sucks dick at rapping

[hotglock666]

probably the greatest beat ive ever heard

[306ness]

this track bums me out thinking i'll never construct a beat as ill, and simultaneously inspires me to try harder to improve my own production. i can hardly stomache aes these days, i think i OD'd on his style in my younger more depressed and drug addled years... but this song never gets old... that penny whistle or ocarina or whatever it is makes my dick hard and ties it into a pretzel every time

[SuklaaHB]

@306ness rofl a pretzel what are you gay? My dicks ties into some laces for my Nikes.

[OolabaSwa]

Aesop just made a killer instrumental for a new film called 'Dewana's Bridal', peep my channel to hear it.

I take ten steps with a bent left vision.

[losttweaty]

i feel so happy that aes sold over 800,000 copies of his last two records , he's pfficially recognised and respected as the wordsmith he is. been my fav and most inspirtation emcee in my life for a long time , and he's not even close to stoppin .. keep a look out for his shit with kimya dawson as well as his wife allyson from dead ghosts , and just always keep checkin up on this cat , he said he had no idea ppl would like it so much , he did to do it , with honest integrity ... I love Ian

[MrRomeosBoy]

Aaaaaaaaah!! Much Loooooove Man.<3

[cschembor]

coffee drinking music :)

[justSELF2nd]

WHY IS IT LIKE THIS?! Why the fuck do i care? I dont have the answers, or at least the ones you want to hear.. C-rays was dope on this track :) ( i dont like him that much in general )

[akatsukikage3]

On every underground rap song all i hear "why don't this get played on the radio" "fuck mainstream" I like underground but please stfu with that.

[TheSnowEffect]

@akatsukikage3 fuck mainstream and fuck radio.

[guy5140]

I love underground and their lyrics, but I wish they got more creative with their beats

[RyanP177]

@guy5140 Look up Dilated Peoples.

[e30roundel]

@guy5140 lookup Blue Scholars ;)

[YannickGuitarist]

Who would dislike this song? It's amazing.

[Xzocker96]

Awesome music 8{)

[mikecheckBKLYN]

the instrumental for this is awesome. sucks there isn't a download for it. :/

[piranha55x]

aesop's second verse give me goosebumps every time

[glass509]

siiiccck...much respect from bumfuck, alabama...

[thechu503]

answer this: when all is said and done are you a memorable trooper, or just a lab rat on the run? CHOOSE ONE

[ulove2cme]

@thechu503 there are plenty more options then trooper or lab rat buddy

[thechu503]

@ulove2cme did you even listen to the song?

[Dmarchant6923]

@ulove2cme i'm not sure if you even payed attention to what he said. it was a line from the song. not an actual question.

[JoeyHeidelbach]

Maybe one of the most meaningful rap songs in the world - at least to me.

[ahhimazombie]

@JoeyHeidelbach Your not alone fam.

[thechu503]

@JoeyHeidelbach and hell yeah labor days is one of the illest hip hop albums ever in my book

[KweliDk]

why the fuck do i care? i dont have the answers, or atleast the ones you wanna hear!

[thybbuk]

@KweliDk like i can't fucking hear the lyrics, you stupid fucking idiot twat

[fourlokoJoker]

@thybbuk

[Mr1337Austin]

@EnokTheKing @astumpe80 Lol at kids arguing on Youtube.

[astumpe80]

@Mr1337Austin Who's arguing? Its banter, dude....

[Mr1337Austin]

@astumpe80 But this is Youtube dude. Keep the arguing for Myspace.

[astumpe80]

@Mr1337Austin Myspace? Dude, that soooo 2006.....

[Mr1337Austin]

@astumpe80 As of your jean jacket. That's of 1991. Where'd you come from?

[astumpe80]

@Mr1337Austin Jean Jacket??

[Mr1337Austin]

@astumpe80 Yes. It's either that or the long-sleeve polo you got for a hand-me down.

>You use "soooo".

>You argue on Youtube.

>You're most likely older than 20.

>You maturity level dropped.

[astumpe80]

@Mr1337Austin I don't understand....I need help

[EnokTheKing]

Why is it like this!? Why the fuck do I care? I don't have the answers or atleast the ones you wanna hear.

[astumpe80]

An Aesop vid with 100k+...I love it!!!!

[sk8innovate]

i swear like 7600 of these views are me.

[gomezadam]

C RAY gets down

[astumpe80]

@gomezadam Is it just me or does C Rayz seem like he'd awesome to hang out with....I think I have a man crush!!

[EnokTheKing]

@astumpe80 No homo.

[astumpe80]

@EnokTheKing-of-homophobia....­.what did a man touch you once and you liked it??? 

[EnokTheKing]

@astumpe80 Lol these little utube kids. I was a joke, lol. Crayz is definitely dope as fuck.

[astumpe80]

@EnokTheKing I think you meant "it was a joke," as was my post....mine was way funnier though.

[sobeita]

ENOUGH "HOW TO RAP" SPAM

[mikecheckBKLYN]

@sobeita i agree man. i got the book and it's dope but seeing it on every video with aesop rock is too overwhelming.

[PimpTasticBling]

I bounce checks like a modern man!

[bripell62]

if you want to know how Aesop Rock comes up with his lyrics, he breaks it all down in the book -- HOW TO RAP....

thats a crazy-good book cause they got all the best under.ground MCs talking about rapping in there, as well as all of hiphops golden era MCs

[CloudNine223]

@bripell62

what book is this again? sounds like one hell of a good read :)

[Jordanxcrunkxcore]

I don't have the answers, or at least the ones you want to hear. 

[Scarecrow545]

@Jordanxcrunkxcore

Wow, that came up as soon as my eyes happened upon your comment hah. And this is my first time hearing this song.

[Jordanxcrunkxcore]

@Scarecrow545 Haaa that's rad.

[PureTeenageIgnorance]

IF ANYBODY KNOWS WHERE I CAN GET SOME NEW EASOP OR HIS LATEST STUFF LET ME KNOW!!!

[atcross94]

I breath in the problems i exhale solutions

[0BFUSCATION]

why the can't shit like this play on the radio? instead we get bullshit like T-Pain... that's fucked up.

[SamE9111]

@0BFUSCATION cause it takes an acquired listener.. thats why t-pain is so popular because he's so generic and very 'marketable'

[Tnesjed]

dam i use to listen to this song so many times man, you have no clue, especially with my headphones on going home from the bar on the train..

[MrIsuckBIGTIME]

just fucking eat his rhymes, shits ruthless.

[asshatt1]

3 people are fucking retarded

[HfHStudios]

Wax just search him



[fourlokoJoker]

Aesop Rocks!

[bradeism]

Best track on Labor Days, easily. Wow.

[WiseSuicide]

aesop is fucken raw as hell

[animatorguy2]

as i walk out my door, step into the pollution

i breath in the problems, exhale solutions

love it c rays wals

[killlilwayne]

why is it like this!? why the fuck do i care i don't have the answers or at least the ones you want to hear

[animatorguy2]

i luv it when people write their lyrix on underground songs in the comments, surprisingly well written, flow breaks softly, and essence within is present without egotistical methods of poetics

[blahdeda1]

who is the Feat in this song?

[AeSoPRocK100]

@blahdeda1 C Ray Walz 

[Doorgasm]

God damn Aes... I actually sat here in awe after he annihilated the last ten lines of his second verse, in silence for well over a minute before i decided to replay.. so inspiring

[TeslaSMTM]

C Ray Walz killed this track!

"As i walk out my door, step into the pollution.

Breathe in the problems, exhale solutions."

[moptopskate]

love the album art for labor days. It captures the essence of the whole album, and especially this song.

[blahdeda1]

why is it like this? why the fuck do i care. i don't have the answers or at least the ones you want to hear. my favorite line in the song.

[Padooshka]

ahhh, aesop's last verse is one of my favorite of all time. "Dear obedience, i apoligize for the falty academics, but they placed us in a miserable stasis, i let bygones be bygones, but trying to see eye to eye with the faceless just ain't workin the way the manual paints it" such a sickly line.

[notablytheillest]

This for the thinkers

This for the urchins allergic to they own stingers

This for the absurd verdict linkers

This for that cat at my shows that always got prophetic opinions but can't remember where his drink is...

[notablytheillest]

C-Rays Walz spit straight truth on that verse. Dope track

[h0w13r]

I like how most lyrics people put up on the net are wrong for aesop songs lol

[jiujitsuboy]

I had a wicked jump shot and sold crack rock on back blocks...back blocks..back blocks

[homeboy9232599]

inhale the problem, exhale the solution

[bakunin81]

anyone know what the sample is from on this track?

[rhymeswitreezon]

@bakunin81 well to start... i think that wood wind over everything is from one of the GodFather soundtracks...

[k00lk33f420]

I breathe in the problems and exhale solutions..damn right

[Shadowbunnyjedi]

what is the orchestra sample he uses from? I would very much like to listen to the rest if there is a rest

[yakamuci]

reminds me of walking down a busy city street with my headphones examining all the rats (ppl) on the street, with sad faces and not talking to each other

[Aeonius88]

@yakamuci every day like dat keep the fiay burnin bro

peace

[poopypoop11111]

dude 3 people dont like this? lets kill them

[xxthizz420xx]

some peeps are gay as fuck tryin to speak on shit,

[bigshleigh]

we steadily searchin for somethin new under the sun but its stagnant- act developement burst of madness

[chacechaceidaho]

this song always makes me think about doing drugs

[theomac30]

i had a wicked jump shot and sold crack rock on the back block. who doesn't love a biggie allusion

[seserlok92]

love the bass

[sanluispotosi131]

who the hell are the three people who dont like this!!

[Soulryde420]

To me, this song is a man's conflicting mental state. Two sides to the same coin.

[ScrewLimbBizkit]

I hate how a run of the mill generic twat like Kayne West can get nothing for praise for being "creative" yet people like Aesop Rock who actually is creative is over looked and pushed to the side.

[guitarguy93]

yo..

[WEWAFILMS]

Hell yea aesop brings true shit to the table

[CarissaKanibal13]

THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY LIKES?! LOOKS LIKE WE ONLY NEED ONE HUNDRED MORE ;D

[TheOrderofPineapple]

Why is it like this? Why the fuck do I care? I don't have the answers, or the ones you want to hear...

[avengedfan11]

@TheOrderofPineapple ha this band rocks

[kyb83]

classic track

[powderdd]

The way aesop attacks words is so sinister and malicious. Shit tears holes in my aesthetics every syllable

[nemblondi]

Aesop rock= brilliance.

simply.

[gimmickthepheonix]

everyone needs to relax and shut the f^ck up with their opinions. just listen to the music, and stop bickering.

[4some2joe0]

@gimmickthepheonix yup



[yeahrightEll]

Immortal and Slug are overrated. But their fucking legends and they deserve to be overrated.

[MysticSandRuler]

@blahnz2009

Qwel - Qweloquiallisms 

[FFVIIJ]

except eyedea... not cuz he's passed either.... i promise im drunk.... i love this brand of hip hop...

[picturemeskating]

@FFVIIJ Haha! I love when people leave drunken comments that have no sense intended.

[harrison8morrow]

@FFVIIJ This brand of Hip-Hop? This IS Hip-Hop. People are just being confused by the fucking Glam-Rap, Hip-Pop trash on the radio that claims they're Hip-Hop. Fuck all those sellouts. They can suck Aesop's dignified dick.

[PSP3000PLAYER]

why is it like this?why the fuck do I care. I dont have the answers or release the ones u want to hear!!!

[TheXJulzrulzx]

It`s "bedlamped vision". Listen man!

[Sangberzerkers]

veru good song



[Webedoingthisshit]

I Killed The Replay Button. :) Best Song Ever.

[harrison8morrow]

I let bygones be bygones. But tryin to see eye to eye with the faceless just aint working the way the manual paints it

Fuck. That's dope.

[evanbononos]

I breathe in the pollution and exhale solutions

[Codered8186]

Damn, saw aesop in santa cruz with bout 30 other people last year, that ish was ALL TIME!!

[tripodprodux]

THEY REMAIN UP IN MY FACE LIKE TOP TO BOTTOM TRAIN CAR FILL-INS

Aesop always comin with the dope graffiti references

[niceclr]

give c-rayze some credit for spittin on this shit man!!!!

[SorrowsShogun]

Also check out the song Big Bang and basically anything by Atmosphere

[SorrowsShogun]

Elli... maybe this is only the beginning for you then, check out Evilnine-Crooked and Aesop Rock-Daylight with lyrics as well as Aesop Rock-No Regrets. Some are slow, some are faster, but between Aesop Rock, Aceyalone, Murs and maybe even Hollywood Undead, you may find an agreeable type of distaste for the society we are stuck in.

[Helios452]

No dreams, wake up, coffee, breakfast, protein, Joint + Aesop Rock Bent Life, workout and meditate... T.V on = Saturday morning 7:00

[Jordyjg]

@Helios452

you dream, you just lack the concentration to remember.

[talleyrandini]

@Jordyjg well said

[RyoDavis]

This is to the guy at my shows who always got prophetic opinions but can't remember where his drink is

[findanewgoddd]

best song from labor days

[MrFiretom]

yo what up?

[cry12344]

graffiti music.

[blahnz2009]

I take 10 steps with a bent left vision.. study the disorders we've absorbed inside the village

dope lyrics nothing compares to Aesop

[WiReKiLLtK]

@blahnz2009 It's bedlamped vision not bent left.

[shortmansrq]

@WiReKiLLtK Its whatever you analyze it as. Bent life - Bent life vision would make sense in context to the songs title. and that lyrical verse.
