Again I wanted to enter @termitemusic's cypher AND the Steemit music league. This weeks theme is "space elevator" so I decided to write a story on Termite's beat. I even got a friend to act as the lonely passenger.. Enjoy!
Deep Space Elevator
I also made a "Future of SMTs?" rap for the #rapchallenge yesterday, feel free to check that out if you haven't!
Here's the lyrics for this one:
Deep Space Elevator
Hi, thank you for using our brand new Deep space elevator
Please note that the place of destination is: As far away from everything as possible
And you’ll never come back
Some fun facts along the way
If you look down now you’ll see the last time a human looks your way
And by the way, you may cancel me at the display
But to dismay I’m the last you will ever hear anyone say
And this express is getting less and less impressive
As we’re moving on
I followed your requests and put my settings to a moody song
I hope you do enjoy, because this ride is going to go on for super long
I’ve got a wire made of nanotubes and diamond threads
A couple meter wide but almost 150 millions ones in length
Enough strength to carry not only itself
but also you and coriolis effect induced, since
11 thousand meters per second in tangential velocity
Got angular momentum to reckon with compared to
Earth surface a greater speed and therefore we ascend
But also drags behind in horizontal plane and bends
This whole construction westwards
Like a pendulum when anyone like you goes up the rest fall
As a counterweight to keep it somewhat straight
So that you get sent far towards the next star without me breaking, that’s the best part
Sorry for just talking about me, but I’m not supposed to listen they said, it makes me real
alistic at least to make you feel less alone as your leaving home
Now you’ll start seeing that it’s a globe
not flat but soon a blue dot that
holds a lot of memories but forgot most past
That’s why everything repeats itself and got bad
And made you leave forever I should probably stop the throw backs
If you look ahead now you’ll see the moon pass over your head
It doesn’t help for anything it’s just a cool event
My program says you might appreciate to see again
one last time before you’re dead
Not to get ahead but to anyone else you might as well be
That makes you free, and that’s my recipe
I send you in this life supporting coffin like an offering to non existing gods
To help you rest in peace
Next in line after this climb
you get thrown to jupiter's orbit In order to gain even more in distance over time
That’s right you’ll visit the biggest orange giant in the system
More HUGE and way less boring than your donald moron
Before you reach the solar, escape velocity
And then go on outside the known where no one shows what’s right or wrong
or left directions mean wherever you are looking from
And every beat I play is just a sequel to your broken song
I’m just transmitting your subconscious thoughts
To keep them all from withering away during your twitter paus
So in a way I’m you and you are me and it’s a plausible idea
That this is all a dream and you decide, how does that make you feel?
Thank you for listening!
