verse: 1
im no baby nigga, i need to retrace my steps to make a difference, at time i hate existence, i didnt paint this picture, im the easel that held it down, you hate resistance, so i gave you distance, i hesitate to give up, head first in the shadows that you dipped your toes in, i almost missed my moment, i need to aim for bigger goals, i know the game is tired of my bitchy moaning, but they dont get it fully, ive been so miserable, me with a big smile on the face, wigged out cause these niggas doubt on ADE, they want me for my soul they want me for my beats, they will not take control, im standing up to speak, speak wealth or be dealt below last on a sunny street, climbing out these shows that i dove at, head first had my dome black but it dont last, on the road i a nomad
hook: 1
dive in the shadows, dive in the shadows, head first head first, dive in the shadows
is his style similar to earl? yeah for sure. But that's disrespectful to MIKE's production and bars that go even darker and more experimental than earl in a way that is entirely his own. dath2002
this album came out the day after my high school graduation, and there have been tons of memories associated with this one. mike's showing his range on this one - from downright despondent on scarred lungs 1/2 and suffocate to hopeful on stargazer and PLANET to flexing his muscles on take crowns, summer 17 and my favorite, its like basketball. harrisonjohn28
