In the labyrinth of life's trials and tribulations, we often find ourselves at crossroads that challenge our faith and resilience. Daniel Caesar's poignant lyrics in this song paint a vivid picture of such a juncture. The artist grapples with his own mortality, the pain intrinsic to human existence, and the pursuit of material wealth. He presents himself as a savior offering solace, but also questions his own intentions. The song is an introspective journey where Caesar acknowledges his vulnerabilities and fears while encouraging listeners to seek answers within their dreams. It underscores the struggle between worldly desires and spiritual fulfillment, highlighting how societal pressures can cloud one's judgement. Ultimately, it serves as a reminder that salvation lies within oneself and not in external validation or materialistic pursuits.
TOO DEEP TO TURN BACK
Lyrics
Ooh, ooh
Hey, hey
So what's the price?
We're like mosquitoes to light, in a sense
I feed off bio luminescence
Love and intent
So it's a quick fix
What else does life have to give but the pain
Generated inside our own brains?
It's a sick game, yeah
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
(That you need)
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
Blaspheming the spirit
I just don't want to hear it, too deep
What I've sown I'll continue to reap
I'll earn my keep
It was all good intentions
Did I forget to mention? My God
Just tryna get money with my dogs
Is that so wrong?
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
(That you need)
Submit to me, come get down on one knee
I'm your savior and I'll give you everything that you need
Lately you been on a wave
Seen you lit up in the place
Sometimes you're sad, I see it on your face
I can tell you're not okay
I know you're only seeking out the beauty
In fulfilling your duty
The answers it seems
Are inside your own dreams
Good God, Jehovah, what's this I see?
My mortality's staring back at me
Niggas think I'm scared
Niggas think I'm a bitch
But I ain't come prepared and I ain't know what this is
I've slept like Jacob, a rock for a pillow
Run swift like Elijah, away from the middle
Seen the world, overindulged maybe a little
But now your boy's up, and I'm fit as a fiddle
Oh Lord, Jehovah, what's this I see?
Bourgeoisie tryna silence me
They don't know what I've been through
Don't know what I pree'd
Seeing shit that you see up in your TV screen
Follow me to salvation
Your mind still 'pon plantations
The shepherd, holds information
It gives it out as its taken
Yeah, yeah
