Kronos vs Solstice
Call me Kronos 'cause I own every second you spend / Every syllable drips time — your career ends where mine begins / The sun bows to my calendar, you're just a blip on the date / I move geological — you dissolve while I create
Solstice stands at the peak where the light meets the dark / You measure time but I AM the moment — the permanent mark / Summer and winter bend to my name, you just count days / I don't chase the sun — the sun chases me through the haze
Permanent mark? Let me chisel that claim off the wall / You're a solstice — one day a year — I'm here through the fall / My bars age like redwood, yours peak once and recede / You're a seasonal event. I'm a legacy seed.
A seed? You're still underground hoping someone plants faith / I'm already the canopy — the shade that you chase / You count seconds while I divide and conquer the year / Solstice don't arrive — the world re-orients when I appear.
Re-orient the world? The world already spins on my axis / Kronos in the closing round — watch the people go ballistic / I'm not a moment, I'm the measure — the metronome, the clock / You're the angle of the sun. I am the rock.
I bow to the closer — that last bar hit the meridian / Kronos, you earned this one — but the rematch will be different in / Every season I come back stronger, refracted and bright / Today the crown's yours. But I'll return at first light.
