Really enjoyed this round, I've struggled with polyrhythms in the past but think I finally got my head around them at least a little bit this time and I like the result! I struggled for lyrics again and these are pretty last-minute / stream-of-consciousness, but I had a lot of fun with the synth and drum programming.

Great sonic palette--that detuned synth sounds so good, and the polyrhythm gives it this cool lurching, disoriented feel that goes along well with the synth and spacey guitar. But it never sounds too weird, you keep a pulsing rhythm throughout that keeps the listener grounded. I can’t help but hear the end part as slower and then faster even though you said it was not changing tempo-wise, just the pace of notes and which were being emphasized. The lyrics are fun, the only line I didn’t really like was “you are on the home stretch,” which kind of reminded me of “yet he has carte blanche,” the phrasing is kind of similar and in both cases I wanted to hear a strong rhyme right there.
