[Intro: Carl Sagan Sample]
"Nothing lasts forever, stars also die."
[Verse 1: Apathy]
On the edge of the Earth, as I sit and scribble this verse
Trynna get the tides to reverse, just give me time to rehearse
I’m learning spells I can cast, when the hands of time are too fast
And as soon as you think that you live in the now...
*Whoosh!!!* Now it’s the past!
I’m tunin' in frequencies, doin' it frequently
Humans are weak to me, stupid and soft
Runnin' out the booth, got a gun up on the roof
Like I’m Lee Harvey Oswald shootin' it off
There’s too many nights that I can’t go to sleep
Can’t shut my brain off, life’s too deep
Is it really that, or am I too weak?
Nowadays me and G-O-D never speak
It’s the price of the wisdom, pushed to the fullest
Thoughts ricochet though the mind like bullets
Bully of the block back then, but I’m older
More mature, for sure; but my heart colder
If I had one wish, nah chill
If I tell you, it won’t come true
And if I can’t live life with the hopes of my dreams
I don’t know what the fuck I would do
[Chorus x2: Brevi]
I slipped in off the deep end, try not to sink in
Underwater
Underwater
[Anoyd]
Yeah, look!
[Verse 2: Anoyd]
I’m a kayak to the Cognac, I’ma paddle to eyes like that
Lookin' like a time-lapse, all aboard to the tipsy
But I don’t want to tip in the sea, 'cause
I don’t want to mix Hennessy with the sea, salty
Thoughts get collected like shark teeth
Pray for more air and more heartbeats
Still I'll G-check you if I see weed, I can drown in
Less than two fluid ounces, a gallon of paint
Now I pour out my chalice, if God made a challenge
Boat tilt to the right like italics, trynna to find balance, I-
Never mean no malice, how you gonna draw the line
When a line is, imaginary like a axis
And you gonna need water for castles
Sand needs the aqua to stand, but I'm sayin'
It expand, on land but a [Fam'?]
Blow that down in the span of a blink
I’m on edge like they hearin' a sink
As I drift away 'fore I realize I can’t swim
How I’ma overcome fears so I don’t wipe tears?
I take a breath and go in
[Chorus x2: Brevi]
I slipped in off the deep end, try not to sink in
Underwater
Underwater
[Chris Webby]
Webby!
[Verse 3: Chris Webby]
Ride to the beat, gettin' high by the beach
Reclined in my seat, with a fine little freak
Sippin' moonshine, 'til I’m half blind when I speak
Got a slur 'til it burn, do these rhymes in my sleep
I’ma big dog like Cujo
Kill shots only, when I let a few go
It could be a muh'fuckin' rap game funeral
Love for the game run deep like Cousteau, mucho
Lyricals level your squad
Ripple the powers, the devil ain't god
They sayin' that me with the pen is the problem
Slick with the ink like a cephalopod
Swipe like lightning, when I’m reciting
Everything I’m writin' down got them frightened
That’s why I hold the crown like King Triton
Fully grown up Team Titan, I've been
Ridin' these waves, like a bodysurfer
In the palm of my hands, where I got the earth
I just grew from a pile of dirt, and then I got to work
Until I blew, like Papa Smurf
I wrote this verse on the one vacation
I take every year on a beach, up in Maine
And I’m still here writin', never take breaks
That’s why I’m a blue whale in a game full of plankton, Baow!
[Chorus x2: Brevi]
I slipped in off the deep end, try not to sink in
Underwater
Underwater
[Brevi]
I can’t breath, deep underwater
I just dream and sleep underwater
I can’t breath, deep underwater
I just dream and sleep underwater
[Outro: Carl Sagan, 1980]
"The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. On this shore, we’ve learned most of what we know. Recently, we’ve waded a little way out, maybe ankle-deep, and the water seems inviting. Some part of our being knows; this is where we came from... and we long to return. And we can, because the cosmos is also within us. Were are made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself."
