09XXI - Dive (Freestyle) Lyrics

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ayy
Visualizing the realism of life in actuality
Visualizing the realism of life in actuality
Minimizing the vision of accepting your mortality
Why fake it til you make it then once you make it start to fake it
Never discussing all this hatred that our people go through daily
More AZ than Jay-Z path set for me was basic
But I couldn't let it phase me
Thoughts disrupted by these crazy visions
Are they fact or fiction
Accurate descriptions
Dreams of chasing money in the land of milk and honey
Uncle Sam and uncle Tom looking on til the break of dawn
Heard it's hard to be humble while you stunting on a jumbotron
Uh, don't mean to ramble on and on
Few more bars and then I will be off this lawn
I'll be gone
Verses for me chorus for you
This ain't a sermon but this is the truth
Ambitions of being just one of the few
To rise above the simple similes that be boring me
Locked in since way before the quarantine
Illusions of grandeur packaged in poetry
Fused in the mantle of exhaling all these flows and schemes, look
On the path to self respect
What's next
Say genius in the mirror enough times you'll see Kanye West
Only you can be you this is nothing like a comic-con
Only you can be you this is nothing like a logic so-
Never mind for that I am wrong
PLP til the day that I'm gone
But taxes and death, and never knowing what's going on
Got me needing a therapist
To get this vision as clear as the year it is
Or the year it was
This that end of 2021
Assuming I was chasing the bands, the fans
That You could silence a king box me in to a rat race
Circles and circles don't ask me who hurt you just tell me what the map say
No lyrical miracle
Just some light rhyming so what do you listen for
That new negro spiritual
I am bright shining like my name Lewis Latimer
Til we flesh and bone they just push us to the side where the margin resides
Telling us marginal lies keeping us marginalized
So as long as we are alive, we study the tides
Head above water at the same time that we dive

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ayy
Visualizing the realism of life in actuality
Visualizing the realism of life in actuality
Minimizing the vision of accepting your mortality
Why fake it til you make it then once you make it start to fake it
Never discussing all this hatred that our people go through daily
More AZ than Jay-Z path set for me was basic
But I couldn't let it phase me
Thoughts disrupted by these crazy visions
Are they fact or fiction
Accurate descriptions
Dreams of chasing money in the land of milk and honey
Uncle Sam and uncle Tom looking on til the break of dawn
Heard it's hard to be humble while you stunting on a jumbotron
Uh, don't mean to ramble on and on
Few more bars and then I will be off this lawn
I'll be gone
Verses for me chorus for you
This ain't a sermon but this is the truth
Ambitions of being just one of the few
To rise above the simple similes that be boring me
Locked in since way before the quarantine
Illusions of grandeur packaged in poetry
Fused in the mantle of exhaling all these flows and schemes, look
On the path to self respect
What's next
Say genius in the mirror enough times you'll see Kanye West
Only you can be you this is nothing like a comic-con
Only you can be you this is nothing like a logic so-
Never mind for that I am wrong
