Breath Lyrics by Helms Deep

River Flows

2018

Hook 1:
Take a breath outside to slow myself down//
Meditate my thoughts as the world goes round/
Sun starts to set, but we gotta keep movin’//
Take another breath/
Then it’s back to the music
[BTF Sample]

Verse 1:
It’s a river of thoughts in the back of mind/
When the drums starts beating
I go blind//
With the Doc right behind me/
We reppin’ the island//
No silence can stop a sixteen bar repents/
I do it in defense to end the non-sense//
I’m hear yes I’ll do it/
Speak fluent, In Union//
To separate my mind state from its current confusion/
Now check it my face turning blue’n//
The Skies and the sights even the sun saying hi/
But that ain’t me, this ain’t Minnesota Nice//
With these North Dakota manners/
I was born to bless mics//
Mister Never sign with a serious mind/
But this just the lyrical//
Hockey scored a miracle/
Mysteria-creating fear in ya//
Extract Amygdala/
You got a sign, stick it up//
What happened to in God We Trust?
Caught up in the clocked in lust//
Damn right I bust, E. Pluribus, Chust!

Hook 2:
( I) Take a breath outside to slow myself down//
Meditate my thoughts as the world goes round/
Sun starts to set, but we gotta keep movin’//
Take another breath/
Then it’s back to the music…

Going back to the music with this one!

Verse 2:
Ayo
Thoughts in the river no need for a doctrine/
Check the resumé cause I ain’t reppin’ Compton//
I’m just droppin knowledge like an NBA conference/
No B.A., but I study Noam Chomsky//
I’m an Indigo kid, Psychoanalyzin’ Shit/
‘fore the most part//
The Wallflower Leading quiet riots/
But Fuck that! Check it I’m a vibe it…
(Sample)…
I’m an Indigo kid, Psychoanalyzin’ Shit/
‘fore the most part//
The Wallflower Leading quiet riots/
But Fuck that, now check it I’m a vibe it//
Highlighted with Harry Potter lightning/
Black water snipers rising//
Patriotic taxes- the venom that be biting/
Subtract the microchip, then ya future’s been decided//
But the other halves like stay positive KEEP QUIET/
Manipulated media, Columbinin’ Scape Goats//
From Eminem to Manson/
Now let’s SKATE coasts//
Opinions matter, so take off ya clothes/
I’m Macho, since the snot-nose//
Helms—
Deep, like Bose/
Limelight not chose//
Ice toes, despiteful, now let it go-yo!




Hook 3 (ALT):
Get in some depth/
Why don’t you get in some debt?
Come up for air and take a breath?
Take a breath y’all! Take a breath

Verse 3:
Ayo
Stop, Drop, and roll/
Stick this comb in your ‘fro//
I represent the tension/
Suspendin’ something more//
I’ve got lessons well in-store/
Flash the drive, eject, connect//
Boxing lefty in retrospect/
I’m bumping in your deck//
But end the conformity/
I’ve got tests galore you see//
But the truth test is music/
See I’m spitting in a lighter key//
That’s just the fight in me/
Rhymesayer—
But that’s biting steeze//
I’m repping MID-North/
Cause that’s what enlightened me//
It’s so much more than psych degrees/
Helms coming lightning speed/
A river of thoughts-I’m just the kite at sea//
Gen X-Y-Z, I’m full package/
Anatomic crating matter//
Why spit faster?
This is music, not a fuckin’ battle/
I’m at war, fighting tanks with a saddle//
Hop off the high horse cause I ain’t roping cattle/
We the latter//
But the bass-steps off/
Just hop off the fence into the river of thoughts…


Hook 4:
Take a breath outside to slow myself down//
Meditate my thoughts as the world goes round/
Sun starts to set, but we gotta keep movin’//
Take another breath/
Then it’s back to the music…
It’s back to the music

Going back to the music with this one!
