Battery Lyrics

Lyric discussion by SynikaL 

Cover art for Battery lyrics by Aesop Rock

"So I'm ready now (What you ready for?) I'm ready for life in this city And my wings have grown almost enough to lift me"

These words literally bring tears to my eyes everytime I hear them. I fail to grasp how a lyric can be so abstract and so moving at the same time (as the lines don't directly translate a correlation between his preparedness for NYC life and the support of his, wings literally. Inferences must be made.)

Beautiful.
