Even though “In The Air” was originally planned to be an instrumental, rapper XX/\/\E and producer EmperorAguila decided on collaborating on a rap together. This collaboration was completely online, and the two artists have never met in real life.
“In The Air”’s lyrics depict a semi-famous rapper (...
[Verse 1: XX/\/\E]
My work is dope, the chronicles of a rap braggadocio
Moved on from the days when I was anti-social
Even now, I can't even my opinion
Been sucked into a dark black hole, led into an oblivion
Just listen to the truth, that is all I ask
All of my hero’s who I look up to are wearing masks
When I paint, I’d rather use a pen and a pad
It kills me sometimes, how humans die, it's really quite sad
Misunderstanding my lyrics, hating on my flow
Honestly, I don't give a fuck, and that you should know
Still, I wanna go back to who I was in July
However, I know what life's about, Catcher In The Rye
[Hook x2]
'Cuz now I'm in the air
I know that life's unfair, but
When rappers try to face me
They be too god damn scared
[Instrumental Break: EmperorAguila]
[Verse 2: XX/\/\E]
I always wanted to sit back, rap and just be myself
Record my shit, while putting bangers on the shelf
I'm already a playerl so its a no-brainer
Keeping up my self-confidence helped me remain saner
I might have what it takes, but probably not yet
I am still young, wild, and free, and I ain't gonna back down from a threat
I got flows, cool clothes, but no woes
You can't fuck with me when I'm in my zone
Now bitch, I may not be the GOAT
But I know how to match rhymes, and put them into notes
Look at me now, mothafucka Chris Brown
I may not be the best, but I will always be around
You think that you can take me, but I reply "PSYCH!"
I've been at the top since I was a tyke
Laughing at these bitches with my boy Emp
You ain't got nothing on me, not even an attempt
[Interlude]
Ayo, XX
[Instrumental Break: EmperorAguila]
[Verse 3: XX/\/\E]
Read between the lines, don't be so naive
I used to crawl on the floors, before I could just see
Negative to positive in a single flash
Going from rags to riches, you already know my task
Very imperfect, but aren't we all?
I am no longer hiding in those god damn bathroom stalls
Yeah man, hierarchy is one giant piece of shit
As long as I have my dope ass fans, I will never quit
[Hook x2]
In The Air was produced by Emperor Aguila.
