I didn’t make it in no 30 under 30s
They sleeping on me and of this I’m Serta certain
My lady said remember why you do it, what’s your purpose
If you get lost in chasing recognition then it’s worthless
Angry at all the ones who rejected me
Second guessing me 'cause I got a second degree
I been in therapy figuring my trajectory
Abnormal, say the least
When it’s done what my death gone mean?
I’m like communion with brown liquor, I’m complex
Brown-skinned Jesus walking through the projects
Vietnam vets pouring Henny for the fallen
All in favor of a savior present while in combat
What we searching for?
What’s ours?
How much we willing to be purchased for?
Trying to stay free, dance like the fire do
And take us higher to
Another level where there's light and truth
Ooo
Is this thing on?
Screaming louder than Serena but I’m deemed ping pong
Day 1s in the front yelling, 'Sing your song!'
'Cause they know that you’ve been hidden in the wings too long
Yea
It’s all icebergs, it’s icebergs
'Cause they don’t know how much it takes for you to fight, word
How much it takes for you to tell yourself that you gon' make it
Clocking sleepless nights accompanied by Anita Baker
Stomach full and still I’m hungry like a starving cheetah
But watch for snakes when you fruitful like the Garden of Eden
Something in me be different nowadays
I have switched up my lanes
I’m filled with no shame
I feel like Monica Wright out in the small gym
Training in the shadows preparing to get that call in
Pushing the envelope like Karl Malone
I built an orchestra, so I’m rarely all alone
I was just in Queens at The Gates Preserve
With the conglomerate talking about who gon' make it first
The visual artists, media mavens, the curator, the archivist
Or the MC who could slay a verse
We all ready to push the button, just like, 'Say the word'
In due season we gon' shake it up, it's nature's herb
Appetite for construction so grab a plate and serve
The devil is a lie I know we get on satan’s nerves
I’m from the city where Heavy D and Puffy is from
So where you think I get my hustle from?
Beehigh said we the future for real
And he said run your lane, you don’t need a deal
Untapped diamonds in my mind frame
So I ain’t worried about no jewelry that’s a mind game
Any second we could blow, thats a mine game
Every moment digging deeper, it’s a mine thing
It’s all icebergs, it’s icebergs
It’s way deeper than the pictures with the likes, word
If losses are lessons I’ve got a lot learned
Kill fear, bury doubt, get your spot earned
Back in the days they sold it out the trunk
Now I’m pushing streams and shows with the crowdfund
I ain’t have to sell drugs, Hov said no to that
And I listened I ain’t go through that
We got multiple degrees and it ain’t for no charges
Comfortable anywhere from the 'jects to Harvard
Ain’t have to carry burners, we bring the heat regardless
Not bad for the progeny of people forgotten
Oh
Our memory be long, and we're going to be around
We had to overdo it, remembering how they lock us down
But if anything I’m evidence it’s hard to take us out
I ain’t supposed to be no rapper but I’m here I’m gon' sprout
Hear me out clearly, this the long game
If you target my objectives that’s the wrong aim
You cannot kill this rhythm when it’s hidden in your blood
Transmitted hit the cymbals every time you pray above
You leave me for dead, I'ma re-up instead
I’m reaping what I’m sowing, i just need a thread
It’s all icebergs, it’s icebergs
Watch for darkness when you find out how the light works
Pressure creates diamonds or your pipes burst
I wanna fly but gotta rid my fear of heights first
It's all icebergs, it's icebergs
Yea
Yea
