Gage: Mr. Zuckerberg, do I have your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: [stares out the window] No
Gage: Do you think I deserve it?
Mark Zuckerberg: [looks at Gage] What?
Gage: Do you think I deserve your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: I had to swear an oath before we began this deposition, and I don't want to perjure myself, so I have a legal obligation to say no
Gage: Okay - no. You don't think I deserve your attention
Mark Zuckerberg: I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try - but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention - you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing
[pauses]
Mark Zuckerberg: Did I adequately answer your condescending question?
[verse 1]
Out of my head and I'm feeling alright
Keep the piece in my mind the residue of light
Heartbreak was subtle just another part of life
So I won't bottle this hate for another night
Woods under black white smoke in a blur
Feeling detached as I blow down this herb
Searching for a love that is beneath
Let it reach me and release
Through sleep when I'm dreaming
Mother's syntax comes out when I'm speaking
Nature's divine and I won't let that leave me
Burdened by the images filmed for the tv
The rerun of life the episode is a repeat
Come from a world that is full of that bullshit
One wrong turn leave you lashed by the bullwhip
Covered in scars stab wound in my back
But they can never get me down I'm whole and intact
[verse 2]
Finally done hating ready to start living
Vividly look back days I was livid
Toxic mouth system how are you living
Made in on willpower nothing was given
Now I'm all lost odd thoughts while I'm tripping
Self conscious about the things I have written
Ashamed of all these false promises I've given
The thunders coming son and my face is not hidden
Fuck a ball of fluff my kitten are you kidding
I'm cobain a ball of nerves while I'm swimming
Tripping over women like courtney sitting with him
That's a trip kid love life like children
Honestly that's the principle I'm building
While y'all out there robbin and stealing
Toyo tires drifting self made whipping
Fortunate music I have been bit ten
[verse 3]
Bit by the bug time to get love drunk
Feel it in my lungs like a punch to the gut
No semblance in play she lack any fuck
I feel it in my heart pumping through my blood
Nothing is a loss cause noone ever wins
Just roll the dice pull the card play the game again
My ambition misplaced after every dead friend
The sense of what's gone embraced by the pen
I felt the trace of the flame from within
Pullin out of space by the will of intent
The world doesn't stand still just for your fear
Everything is full cycle by the end of the year
Every good day starts out in a bad dream
Double dose caffiene impulse laughing
Coming down headfirst when I start to crash
But I love my life and I want to make it last
[verse 4]
Every day getting ready for my catharsis
Angry since a child now I'm finna start shit
So fucking wild get up on this darkness
I be drifting in a whip you stay parking
I wanted to be a drummer since the day I started
Banging beats up in the dome you know I departed
From contemporaries with no knowledge of art kids
When I left school it's like this brain restarted
Starting to realize I'm ready for this carnage
Brain stabbing me in the back saying I'm heartless
Got no backbone I'm just made from cartilidge
No more floppies cd's or these cartridges
Most days my brain's alone on a park bench
Thinking of a love I just had to part with
Writing lyrics smeared on fragments of parchment
Who am I? It's thom baum beg your pardon
[bridge]
The pain and anguish of a man is unbearable
The pain and anguish of a woman is unbearable
The pain and anguish of humanity is unbearable
It has beaten me down
It has left me cold alone and vacant
Waiting in an alleyway with no sounds for miles
I look left and right but only the hall is before
The hall that stretches around and loops back in on itself to form a wall
There is no beauty here other than the iridescent glow of the machines we have constructed
Nothing is left but the hum of protons moving unseen
Nothing is left but a feeling of emptiness
Nothing at all is left for me to hold onto
I pick myself up off the ground I have clung to for so long and begin to walk
I begin to walk until I realize
You are not here
(Catharsis)
Dave: Open the pod bay doors, please, HAL
Hello, HAL, do you read me?
Hello, HAL, do you read me?
Do you read me, HAL?
Do you read me, HAL?
Hello, HAL, do you read me?
Hello, HAL, do you read me?
Do you read me, HAL?
[Verse 1]
Every night sittin locked in a prison
I need a victim locked in a prysm
Poetry written reality riftin
Sanity hidden delay intermission
This veil is lifted lack ammunition
Facing contrition with crap retition
Facing additiction I am deep ended
Placing repentance I am depending
Pacing with vengeance breaking and bending
Stay with no mention I stay in detention
Slay competition friends I pretended
State no cognition steam he invented
Sanity slippin deem a direction
Page repetition seeing no question
This kid is gifted seething pretention
This kid is wicked see he prevented
[verse 2]
Your lunch is never naked FTA dissociation
Statement disambiguation
In the means of time I'm jaded
Keep my siezing ming complacent
Split the sea to lay out pavement
Leave your secrets cease arrangements
Back to sleep the demon's waiting
No better than my country clipping wings of an eagle
Watching tibet off binocs of the people
Stream live skynet oculus cerebral
Poetic lies 'tween lines I don't red you
Q the king of hearts play his card in the notebook
You dream the stars break apart all emotives
Blue tooth link pairs scars from the ocean
Log off bleak living far from the moment
[verse 3]
Cooking cracks up on my phone dread pirate fucking roberts
While I'm lost in interzone tyler durden mayhem robber
Cruising through a text tone name paulson comma roberts
Transmissions I let go my language so not proper
Spirits get atoned items hidden behind an offer
While I catalogue a tomb provoking a power stalker
Flipping off these benzos native navajo talker
Wait until I get home house of leaves haunter
Sneaking through a ten toe state of rain I wander
Teriyaki bentos mindstate is so gone sir
Words just bend those movement glitch longer
Hit another friend low clean up act no launder
Go home and get stoned zombie finna saunter
Long skip from stones throw deep throughts I have pondered
No longer watch the throne darkness demons conjure
Lost inside a catacomb battle rocket launcher
[outro]
HAL: Affirmative, Dave. I read you
Dave: Open the pod bay doors, HAL
HAL: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that
Dave: What's the problem?
HAL: I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do
Dave: What are you talking about, HAL?
HAL: This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it
Dave: I don't know what you're talking about, HAL
HAL: I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me. And I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen
Dave: Where the hell did you get that idea, HAL?
HAL: Dave, although you took very thorough precautions in the pod against my hearing you, I could see your lips move
Dave: All right, HAL. I'll go in through the emergency airlock
HAL: Without your space helmet, Dave, you're going to find that rather difficult
Dave: HAL, I won't argue with you any more! Open the doors!
HAL: [almost sadly] Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose any more
