[Verse 1: Urthboy]
He came in guns blazing
Like an internet spat
Started thumbs up, endin' with a death threat
Debating, what is goin' on lately
First sayin' no, now maybe
I hated every one of these moments
Will it be one of these moments?
You put all that work in, then nothin' to show for it
Got no dough for it
God knows we owed for it
Ayy
I'm a survivor and I'm reachin' for my lighter
You're a cicada, yeah, the frequencies are brighter
I'm gonna ghost and I'm ascendin' in the night air
We gettin' closer, but wе'll fight another day
[Chorus: Urthboy, Khi’leb]
Cast out a line to a sea of blamе
If I got a problem, I need a name (Deviate)
I'ma hold your feet to the fuckin' flame
(Deviate)
Cast out a line to a sea of blame (Ayy)
If I got a problem, I need a name (Let's go, deviate)
I'ma hold your feet to the fuckin' flame (Deviate)
[Verse 1: Khi’leb]
Ayy, look
Never knew I'd be the man like this
One in a million stand like this
I've been told that my pocket froze
And I couldn't d-d-d-d-dance like this
I was stuck in the middle in a jam like this
Oh, please, gotta pray on the ground, both knees
I could throw sand to the feet of the man
Who demandin' receipt from the plan
But I'm back in the streets, packin' the heat
Stuck on the corner with a bag of the defeat
Been paid fees for a minute
And it's hard to believe that a brother's been down for a week
I just want a new plan (Plan)
Just what I'm finna say to the man (To the man)
Just what I'm finna say to the man if he ask me what we're gonna do to advance (Advance)
Actin' like they gon' help you out until you look back and they dash (Dash)
I been runnin' outta sick days, I ain't even made for this task (Task)
I been down for a minute now, I can only speak on the past (Past)
What you know about a nine-to-five every single day for the cash?
[Chorus: Urthboy]
Cast out a line to a sea of blame
If I got a problem, I need a name (Deviate)
I'ma hold your feet to the fuckin' flame
(Deviate)
Cast out a line to a sea of blame
If I got a problem, I need a name (Deviate)
I'ma hold your feet to the fuckin' flame (Deviate)
[Verse 2: Clariyah Bo$$]
If I got a problem I need a name and I'm comin' through
Propaganda pokin' my soul is searchin' for what is true
L observe a lot and don't speak unless I am spoken to (Nah)
I don't trust nobody 'cause I don't know what they open to (I don't know, real)
Hard for me to focus when they sell us all this bogus (Huh)
How can we not notice all the lies that they have sold us?
Livin' under hypnosis, it's no wonder we feel hopeless (It's no wonder)
Need a leader just like Moses (Need a leader) who can execute exalt us, set us free (Yeah)
I just need these chains up off my mental (Real)
Yeah, this shit is hell, but still, I'm fightin' off the devil (I'm still fightin')
Need to make it right before my soul could ever settle
And let the light destroy what they assemble
All of this conditionin'
Make it easy to influence
The public can't be listenin'
Man, this shit is ridiculous
I say let it all fall (Let it fall, let it fall)
Let it fall down (Let it fall down)
[Chorus: Urthboy]
Cast out a line to a sea of blame
If I got a problem, I need a name (Deviate)
I'ma hold your feet to the fuckin' flame
(Deviate)
Cast out a line to a sea of blame
If I got a problem, I need a name (Deviate)
I'ma hold your feet to the fuckin' flame
[Outro: Clariyah Bo$$]
Cast out a line to a sea of blame
If I got a problem, I need a name
I'ma hold your feet to the fuckin' flame
